Whited Update - February 28, 2010

(An e-mail I sent out Sunday.)

Greetings in the name of the LORD!

We hope this finds you well!

We just wanted to send a quick update with a few important prayer requests:

Dano starts Aviation Pre-field Orientation tomorrow (Monday... which was today)! Yea! He’ll be learning even more about maintaining the small aircraft in the overseas operations. Please pray for a great experience and time of learning.

Virginia has a bump (about 1.5 cm) on her face next to her eye that she will be having a CT scan on Tuesday, March 9^th to make sure it is “nothing.” Please pray that God will make it disappear on its own ASAP. Otherwise… pray that it is truly NOTHING! (If you don’t know it is there, you’d never notice it.)

My Daddy begins another round of chemo tomorrow (Monday). This time it will be even more intense. He will be in the hospital for 3 or 4 days. You can stay up to date here: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/richardmcdonald Thank you for praying for his healing & restoration of health!

Upcoming celebrations:

Virginia turns ONE on March 11^th!!

Emma turns FIVE on March 29^th!!

Derek turns SEVEN on April 3^rd!!

Thank you for praying with us and celebrating with us!

We’d love to hear from you! We’d love to share your burdens and your joys!

Thank you, once again, for partnering with us and enabling us to serve in mission aviation!!

Love,

Melinda for Dano & gang

Olivia, Derek, Emma, Wesley, & Virginia
