heard from the lawyer

Wednesday, September 12th, 2007

He had spoken with his office in Rome, and they had a few questions about the current status of my mothers citizenship as well as a few other things. I hope to have some answers as to what this all will entail within a few weeks. It seems certain that it will be pretty involved. They were even talking about possibly her having to go to Italy to testify in court. Hope not… I don’t think that will happen, but who knows……

at any rate, wanted to let you know what is going on.

Divine accident

Tuesday, September 11th, 2007

Today while getting off the freeway on the drive home, I was involved in a small accident. There was no apparent damage to either vehicle, but I thought it best to pull over and double-check. In speaking with the woman who rear-ended me, she commented that she was gong through a lot right now because they think that their baby daughter may have muscular dystrophy. Earlier today she had some blood tests done to determine if she carried the gene since they believe the disease is hereditary.

 I talked with her for some time and because her daughter was in the car I looked in on the baby. Although it’s unusual for me to do, I just felt a strong sense that I should ask her if she wanted prayer.  As it turns out, they are Christians attending Vineyard Anaheim – and yes, she wanted prayer.

 I feel that this was no “accident”, but that God really felt she needed a little extra prayer – and also that I finally needed to step out of my comfort zone and minister to a stranger who is now a new friend.

I would ask that anyone who reads this post also keep the family in prayer. Their names are David, Claudia and Baby Katherine (Kate, 15 1/2 months) Wang. Please pray for healing for Baby Kate, but also that through this situation they will be able to minister to David’s family who is Buddhist.
