Hi Friends and Family, 

I realized I NEEDED to give you a life update on our family. I am sorry it has been so long. Life has been very FULL for us. But all good news and prayers answered... 

At Alistair's last dilation to stretch his esophagus, our surgeon was very pleased with his progress. He has not had one since and likely wont have another until he begins solid foods. Financially, through much of your generosity and some hospital government program assistance, it looks like our needs will be covered! 

As of now, Alistair is growing slowly forward! And, our prayer requests is this - pray he begins sleeping through the night, mostly for Dara's sake, as it has been a tiring journey for our family, yet full of God's provision, presence, and guidance! AND our other prayer request is - simply to praise God for all He has and is doing; and pray His Kingdom advance continues in and through us all!

Our family is forging forward with family life and ongoing ministry of advancing His Kingdom here, across the nation, and around the globe! God continues to bring unprecedented opportunities for us to proclaim Jesus, empower everyday laborers, and fuel His Kingdom movement - even in places it has never been done before! 

We are incredibly thankful for YOU. You mean the world to us! - Charlie, Dara, Adelaide, & Alistair
