UPDATE ON BENJAMIN!
FROM SHIRLEY,HIS MOM.
THANKYOU FOR ALL YOUR PRAYERS!

Dear all, I know that some of you got "the word" at church today but it
is now easier to send this to the whole list. Benjamin is in the USA.
He has made it as far as Washington DC. We don't know where in
Washington DC but somewhere. He is on the "slow boat" to California.
The plane will be stopping and dropping off troops at bases across the
country. He got to Washington late in the day on Saturday and will be
there possibly until Monday. I don't know whether he will make it home
for Thanksgiving but we will be thankful to get him whenever he arrives.
Once he gets to California there will be some medical work to do and I am
sure paperwork to get him processed.
Other news--a Life magazine photographer was taking pictures
during Benjamin's surgery. It should be in next month's issue. The
local paper called and wants to have a photographer at the airport when
he comes home. No more news--it is just a waiting game now. Thanks
again for your love and prayers--shirley

THANKYOU AND GOBLESS YOU FREEPER SAINTS!
YOUR PRAYERS HAVE BROUGHT LOUDLY THE ATTENTION THE WHOLE BODY OF CHRIST MINISTERS TO THE SAINTS HERE AT THE LITTLE CHURCH.
GODSPEED!
ALPHA
