3/13 Update

Hello All,

God answers prayer!

We want to let you know that we will be staying 3 more weeks. Our return date is April 3rd. We have been praying for the Lintons (our replacements) that they would raise their remaining amount of support. During our last Friday night service, I made the support needs known to the group and by the end of the night we had $2,500 in hand! Praise God. The Lintons are booking their flight and we expect them here March 29th.

We have been praying for Tom and Beth as they went through a long ordeal to adopt a baby girl (Sophie) from India. They have traveled to India this past weekend to pick her up. Tom was quick to take a couple of pictures and send them to us so we can celebrate with them. The three of them will be home in Alabama this weekend. Keep them in your prayers as they begin the process to repair the cleft palate Sophie has. Tom will be returning to Camp Humphreys in a couple of weeks.

What is happening around HH

We had a wonderful time celebrating Judy's Birthday (March 9th). Of course the celebration had to be stretched out over several days. On Wednesday, Yung was so nice treating our family (and Tom Phillips who was leaving in two days) to a dinner at his favorite restaurant in Pyongtaek. We had our own room and had the pleasure of dinning with the owners two daughters (13 & 8). By the end of the night the girls were singing songs (Korean and American) and playing various hand games. The older daughter could speak English well but the younger only a little. Yung provided any translations when required. The real treat was listening to Tom sing some of his hillbilly songs. I wonder what The Koreans were thinking when they heard these strange sounds. On Thursday we had folks stick around after bible study and help us celebrate with cake and ice cream. I'm sure she'll want to celebrate once again when we return states side.

Prayer Requests

Please pray for Jeff Norris who is in Hawaii having eye surgery. He is hoping to correct a sight problem that has thus far kept him from flight school. Pray the surgery goes well.

There is a peninsula wide exercise including both US and Korean troops for the next two weeks. Pray for safety. A number of the HH soldiers are included in it.

We continue to pray for the Wrights. Jim and Jennie have not heard back regarding the possibility of adopting a baby. Several weeks ago the were told one may be available at anytime. They continue to wait and trust on the Lord.

That is it for now.

All our love
The Beer Family
