Taxi Accident In Beirut But Recovering Well


Near the end of my trip to the Middle East last month, I was involved in a taxi accident in Beirut. The elderly driver and I were taken to the hospital but sustained no major injuries. I'm still very sore in my shoulders and neck but PT and massage are helping. A friend in Beirut sent me this news report of another vehicle accident at the exact same location two weeks after my accident. Please offer a prayer of thanks that my accident was not serious and my injuries were minor compared to what I initially thought they were. The single American brothers who hosted me helped with meals, transportation, and allowing me to continue my meetings with Lebanese brothers in their living room.

Please continue to pray for my discernment regarding the feasibility of future trips to Sudan coupled with online conversations with approximately 35 younger Sudanese church leaders whose quality of internet service varies. I'm testing this now and over the rest of the summer.

And if you have five MORE minutes to pray :-) would you pray for these brothers in the Middle East?
