Sore Throats

The person responsible for blogging on this blog apologizes for the lack of blog posts. The resident photographer feels uninspired to take photographs and she extend her apologies to the readership.

Now to the news! The MacDonald family has been busy trying to getting better. We came down with horrible sore throats Thanksgiving Day and we are still dealing with raw and tired voices on Sunday.

Bonnie’s guitar string popped in half in the middle of “What Child is This?.“ That was an exciting highlight. She made it through the whole rest of the songs working the strings she had left.

We were very thankful we didn’t have to cancel the whole concert on Sunday. The way the bus is parked we have to travel up a hill to get out to the main road. Snow and ice on the hill make it very slippery. With a storm blowing in tomorrow night we hope our next concert on Friday night we be a ‘go.’

Victor (dad) was doing a little better but is now back to full blown pain, nauseating waves from his stomach, and diarrhea. The cold hit him hard but he seems to have pulled out of the constant coughing and general discomfort from being ill. The doctor, who saw him this week, told him not to loose any more weight. I think if he knew of a way to keep weight on he would have found it by now. We continue to seek the Lord for His healing touch on our bus driver.

Thanks all for your prayers.

Love,

The MacDonald Family

He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.
Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;
but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.

Isaiah 40:29-31 niv
