Mackey Update


Time has really been moving along here in Brazil. We have been anticipating the arrival of our little boy. Ginger has been staying healthy and is adjusting well to all the changes that have been taking place. We only have about FOUR MORE WEEKS! During that last week or so we will be staying at a house that is in the same town as the clinic; by staying there, we will only have a ten minute drive to the clinic (verses 1 hour).

These last few months have been very fruitful for us and we seem to have gotten off to a great start. We are involved in many activities in the church throughout the week and have begun some great friendships with not only individuals but families. This time is giving me a great head start seeing that classes don't start up until August. Pray for great comprehension of the culture and language and the ability to communicate just about anything.

This will probably be the last update we send out before our little guy is born into the world. Please pray for us as the Lord prepares us for what will take place in the upcoming weeks and months. Pray that the clinic will let me be present for the delivery (it is a small place, so if Ginger goes in to delivery in the middle of the night there will be less people and they will let me be in the room). Pray for a package of baby items that was sent down, which is being held up in San Paulo.

We thank you all so much for your prayers and support; we could not be doing this without you.
