Dear Friends
and Family:
The last several weeks have had some ups
and downs. On Feb. 12 Zach flew back to
Grand Rapids to see a corneal specialist (an ophthalmologist that specializes
in the treatment of the cornea, or outer part of the eye). Zach had been having problems with the vision
in his left eye since December of 2012 when he had an infection. The diagnosis was that Zach was still
suffering from inflammation in his cornea resulting from an infection that was
not completely resolved. Zach received a
new schedule of treatment and was told that it would take several months to
fully regain his vision. In the
meantime, Sharon, who was recovering from pneumonia, took care of things at
home along with teaching several classes (on the Minor Prophets and the Ten
Commandments). We give thanks to God
that Zach was able to return on Feb. 24 (Sharon’s birthday). Though Zach’s vision has improved, it still
has a long way to go. Please continue
praying that God would heal this vision problem!
Please join
us in giving thanks for:-A successful training event held in February on the Minor Prophets and the Ten Commandments. The students seemed very engaged!
-Successful training event held in February for Timothy Leadership participants who are facilitating TLT groups in their churches and communities.
-A good visit for Zach’s parents and sister who came to Haiti in February. It was the first time Zach’s sister had ever been to Haiti.
-Safe travels to and from the US and some improvement in Zach’s eye condition in February.
-Good health for our family and healing for Zach’s eye. At times, Zach’s eye problem has made it very difficult to use the computer and drive.
-A friend of ours named Kesnel Ady who is one of the foremen of the Jacquet church construction project. He had a bout of dangerously high blood-pressure and has taken time off the project.
-Our three-year-old daughter Esther who has been sick the last three days with a high fever.
Thanks for your prayers and support,
Zachary, Sharon, Hannah, Isaiah,
Vivian and Esther Segaar-King
