"...God Wanted Me Back"

Those of you who heard our main deputation presentation during our recent home assignment may remember the story of Mr. Kol, the attorney who had laryngeal cancer. For those of you who don't remember, volunteer ENT surgeon Dr. Tom Staton operated on him in 2000, an operation that saved his life. Mr. Kol became a Christian when he was in the hospital at that time.

He was here at the hospital today to see Dr. Tom for his annual check-up. He's his usual cheerful, up-beat self. His electronic voice box is working well. The quote from Kol that we used in the presentation was, "I was a great sinner, but God wanted me back".

Thanks, Tom for your ministry here through the years!


Update: Anita
Little Anita, the girl with multiple muscle and bone infections died early Saturday morning, apparently of kidney failure, although there were many things that contributed. Thanks for praying for her, and please continue to pray for her family as they grieve this loss.
