Thankful for everything

My Weekly Update

Dec 23, 2022

Hello Everyone,

As the year 2022 comes to an end, I can simply say one thing - “Thank you, Lord, for everything.” On January 1st, I was admitted to the hospital in bad condition due to post-transplant complications. I was in a lot of pain. This year I went through many things personally, including surgery. Then there were also other painful situations due to the sickness of other people and particular circumstances.

Yet I am confident I will see the Lord’s goodness while I am here in the land of the living. (Ps. 27:13, NLT)

Health/Personal Update

Thank you for your continued prayers for my complete recovery. Last week I had my bone marrow biopsy. I have not got the final results, but everything is normal so far and it is excellent news. This week also marked one year since I had my transplant. I will return to Rochester in the 2nd week of January 2023 for more appointments. I got the flu a few weeks and now I am doing fine. Once again, I want to thank everyone who has not given up but continues to pray for me. There are prayer lines in which people continue to intercede for me.

A church member recently asked me, “What’s the hardest part about being a pastor?” My answer: Walking with people through a major life issue only for them to leave the church at some point over something petty, often without ever talking to you. STORY 👇🏼
