Surprise, Surprise- I’m sick again. Since coming here I have been sick at least once a month. This is very unusual for me. Back in America I only got sick about once a year and even then I was over it in a day are two. My immune system is normally rock solid, but the Nepali germs are beating the day lights out of me. I guess it’s just part of the job!

My buddy Josh who came out to help me for a few months left on Saturday to hike to Everest base camp. He, another America, and one of my students from the Bible college will be gone for two weeks on this trip. Pray for their safety and for open doors to share the Gospel. The Everest region is very cold to the Truth of Christ and they desperately need Hope.

Another bit of exciting news is that I will be getting a full-time roommate in December. Right now Josh is living with me, but I have been praying for a roommate who will stay full-time in Nepal. Last week one of my friends from my language class asked if I knew of a place he could live. It’s amazing how his need of an apartment met my need of a roommate. My new roommate is a man from the Philippians in his 40?s. Please pray that we both will adjust well and that we can be flexible. Also, please pray for a second roommate for my apartment. I have 3 bedrooms in my place and would love to have another missionary or Nepali live here.
