    Thank you all for the outpouring of birthday greetings.  I really appreciated it. I leave for Africa tomorrow.  So, comments will be a bit delayed.  Patrick is handling the Today’s Word delivery.  It is all scheduled, no interruptions.

    Christine Hall is all set to go to Ethiopia to serve compassionately for the Kingdom.  Except for one small detail.  The sale of her home in England fell through at the last minute.  She’s packed and ready, but God will have to bring a buyer since the first one is gone. She is asking the…
