When many parts of the country are terribly hot, we have such pleasant weather here. There are no complaints.
Margie had another good day yesterday. She was able to get a permanent which she needed and before that went to the lab for another blood test. They are monitoring her closely because of the seizure medication. She is still weak and we pray the doctors will be able to help her get stronger. Our church sponsored work team came and mowed our lawn which was much appreciated. Until I can leave Margie alone, safely, I dare not leave her to do these chores. The last time I mowed the lawn, I came in the house and found her lying on the kitchen floor calling my name. We trust she will have a good day today and we sincerely thank you for praying.
About the Poulsons
- Ralph and Margie
- The Poulsons served with ABWE in Brazil for 25 years. Their son Rawlie was born in Sao Paulo, Brazil and their daughter Joy in Iquitos, Peru. Joy was born developmentally disabled and eventually they returned to the States to find help for her. God providentially led them to Shepherds Baptist Ministries, Inc. where she has been a resident for 43 years. The Poulsons returned to Northeast Brazil to the town of Natal and Ralph was Director of the Berean Seminary for a few years. Because of health concerns, they returned to their home town of Ferndale, WA in December of 1980 and later their home church, First Baptist, called Ralph to pastor the church. After 18 years at First Baptist, at age 68, Ralph resigned and he and Margie prayed for the Lord to lead them to their next ministry. Shepherds Baptist Ministries, Inc., asked them to consider being a western representative in 8 states. For 10 years we represented Shepherds in the 8 western states, including Alaska. What a privilege it has been and we continue now at home doing various projects for Shepherds so that I can care for Margie as she recovers.
