Update on Robert and Ruthie

We received an email from Robert and Ruthie and we know that they safely made it to the city where they had a 10 hour layover before flying on to Manila. For their 15 hour flight only two movies were in English and they played over and over. For some reason they couldn't turn on their overhead light and wished they had brought a book light so they could read. They were served breakfast at what was to their body clocks 2am. Robert had chicken and rice porridge for breakfast, but Ruthie opted for the american omlette. We'll have to ask him about that porridge.
By now they should be in Manila with our missionaries if the rain at their layover city didn't keep them from taking off. Two days ago there was a typhoon that swept across the Philipines and they lost power. It is expected that it should be working by now, but for all involved we pray that it is up and running again.
Please pray that Robert and Ruthie can be an encouragment and a help to our missionaries at this time, power on or off, and that they will recover quickly from their journey.
