Continued Prayers

I just returned from visiting my friend Fiona in the hospital. She is doing well but will require anywhere from 3-6 weeks for recovery. Please continue to keep her in your prayers. She and a friend were robbed at knife point and while they were trying to run away fell over a ledge, with Fiona shattering a vertebrae.

Fiona and her friend were visiting a common tourist site called "The Cross." When walking north in Antigua this cross can be seen up on a hillside. It is one of the "must see" places of Antigua. Unfortunately the thieves also know that there are lots of tourists there. I was warned by a friend that the best time to go is very early in the morning (7:00 am or before) to avoid trouble with thieves. Fiona was there in the mid-afternoon and the police had gone on a lunch break. The friend who was with her suffered an eye injury as the result of the thief punching her in the eye.

Fiona was in good spirits and thankful that her injuries were not worse. She says that tomorrow the doctors want her to try to walk.

Keep her in prayer as she embarks on her journey back to good health. Thanks!
