This past week we had a teammate die of cerebral malaria. He was rushed to the clinic, but died at 9am on Monday morning. The disease comes through mosquito bites and attacks the kidneys while causing rupturing of the blood vessels in the brain. It causes disorientation and blackouts. As a team here, we've arranged for his widow to return with the remains to their home country. And we had a memorial service, in which 424 members of the community attended, earlier this week.
Please pray that we will have words of hope and encouragement during this difficult time.
