 We have names and locations for everyone.  Six of our faithful translators have agreed to work 3 days a week for The Luke Commission discipling these new believers.</div> <bR> <div>      The Luke Commission can buy inexpensive reading glasses, but please send us your old prescription classes.  We need to restock our inventory  (PO Box 1335, Sagle, Idaho 83860) for our return in March and April, 2007.</div> <bR> <div>      Again we are grateful to Kendall Optometry Ministry for their part in reaching these dear ones for Jesus.  Swazis are dying in epidemic proportions from AIDS.  They need to hear the Gospel now.</div> <bR> <div>                                    Dr. Harry and Echo VanderWal</div> <div>                                    for The Luke Commission</div> <bR> <div> Here is a brief E-Mail from the team leader.</div> <bR> <div> -----Original Message-----</div> <div> <B>From:</B> Harry and Echo VanderWal [mailto:hetrio6@gmail.com] </div> <div> <B>Sent:</B> Thursday, November 09, 2006 10:55 PM</div> <div> <B>To:</B> President@kendall-optometry-ministry.org</div> <div> <B>Subject:</B> Pics</div> <bR> <div> Kendall,</div> <div>  </div> <div> I am sorry we have not been able to respond sooner. This week illness hit many on our team. One is in the ICU and in need of prayer. </div> <div>  </div> <div> We have attached some pics. I hope this helps. We will have a full report summary soon. We almost have the DVD summary complete. We will be able to send you a copy when it is complete.</div> <div>  </div> <div> Again, you have no idea how thankful we are for the part you played in this ministry. We are excited about what we have witnessed.</div> <div>  </div> <div> Sincerely, Echo</div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
