Our friend Eric, a young missionary from Louisiana, is serving in the Philippines right now. He is hospitalized right now with either denghue or typhoid fever. He is feeling so ill and it is so difficult to be young and single and far away from home when you are that sick. Eric is a faithful missionary who has served in the Philippines, Mexico, and India. HE could use your prayers.

Oh no. Can't imagine. Praying for Eric, and for his family who must be sick with worry. Colleen, if you happen to know which part of the Philippines he's in, would you mind PMing me please? Thank you.

Love,

We received news today that Eric was released from the hospital yesterday and is feeling much better. They were not able to formally diagnose him, but he is back with his missionary team and visitors from the States are arriving next week (his girlfriend is the State-side mission coordinator), so he should be in good hands as he recovers. THanks for your prayers.
