Update on Steve Allen

Dear Prayer Partners,

Thanks for many emails voicing prayers and support for Steve and our family. Steve was released from the Mbabane Clinic last night around 6pm, our time. He is doing pretty well for the most part, thanks to great meds! Praise the Lord! He still has not passed the kidney stone yet but at least he is not in a great deal of pain at the moment. Our plan is to still wait for another 24-48 hours to see if Steve can pass the stone on his own. The doctor here has advised him to see his urologist in a few days, if the stone has not passed. We are really praying we do not have to make a medical trip to Johannesburg for Steve to have the kidney stone removed surgically.

Our National Youth Camp starts on Thursday and ends on Sunday of this week. We are busy with final preparations and logistical support on our side. We are praying we do not have to miss this important, annual event for our Swazi youth. However, we are trusting God through everything and that His plans will be revealed in His timing. Both of us have peace about the whole situation.

Thanks again for your faithful prayers and support!

We did update our family blog with a funny but prayerful post about the kidney stones as well as Monica's mom's birthday today.

Blessings and prayers,
Steve, Monica, Lacie and Nathan Allen
