Greetings from Niger. Our blog has been down for a couple of months and is now sending you old news so I thought a new photo of the clinic might be appreciated. The plumber and electrician have done what they needed to in the floor and so now the floors are being poured! Next steps: tile and ceiling!
The girls are back in school and Abby has started preschool and all are doing well. I’ve been feeling a bit overwhelmed but God always provides at the right time. I was especially panicking about getting my 400+ exams graded (these are from the students who failed the first time around). Just at the time I was most stressed, I got pink eye and basically didn’t leave home for 3 days. I got all my grading done just before our French doctor left and I was needed back at clinic.
Abby’s new comment at almost every meal is, “This is not what I ordered.” I have to admit that I was saying the same thing to God as I was suffering from pink eye but in hindsight it gave me just the time to be home and get done what was needed! And I sound just as ridiculous as Abby when I fret and fume about what I think I need!
Haven’t been receiving your emails and we miss them! Our email address changed to njfolkerts@gmail.com and that is the reason why. Glad to see how the clinic is coming along. Hope you are all doing well. Darrel and Noreen Folkerts
Yea, God! The roof is on and things are moving along. Boo, pinkeye. But Yea for opportunities! Love you all, AK
