Listen to your body and drink lots of water

Yesterday we spent most of the day in bed from altitude sickness. The big lesson we learned was - listen to your body and drink lots of water. When you get dizzy, stop what you are doing and rest. The doctor checked us out and ordered us to stay in bed. By last night, we were feeling some better and then the electricity went out. This morning, we are much better, but are needing to carefully listen to our bodies and drink lots of water.

We invite you to pray for us today, especially Janelle, as we need to do today what we were planning to do yesterday and today. We have to keep telling ourselves that our health is more important than getting everything done for the wedding. Pray also for safety and health for all those traveling today.

This afternoon we leave for Quito to meet the rest of those coming from the US. We will spend the night in Quito and then return to Riobamba on Friday to finish preparations and have wedding practice Friday night.

Thank you so much for your prayers!
