Answered Prayers

Benjamin and his eye doctor

Thanks to those of you who have been praying for Benjamin's eyes (and all of our other medical needs) for so long. His doctor's appointment yesterday was a smashing success. Benjamin is using both eyes interchangeably instead of favoring his strong eye, and he no longer has to wear his patch! The doctor showed Aaron how to do a quick diagnostic test on Benjamin to determine if Benjamin is continuing to use his eyes equally, and we received a list of doctors in Australia.
All of us except Aaron have received medical clearance to enter Papua New Guinea, and the results from his allergy testing yesterday were very good so we anticipate his clearance very soon. We have our physicals on June 16th, and that should finish up our appointments! Again, we know that people all over the world are praying for us and that God is answering your prayers for our family. Thank you for going on your knees for us!

This is wonderful news! I bet Benjamin doesn't miss wearing his batch.

What a handsome young man Benjamin is growing up to be! I know you are so very proud of him. He not only smiles with his mouth, but also, I think I see him smiling just a little bit with those beautiful eyes!

Praises to God who hears and answers the prayers of His children.
