Typhoon Francisco Nearing Guam

26W_171732sairfrTrack3

Here are the latest satellite and tracking pictures for Typhoon Francisco as it nears Guam. So far we have had some high winds and lots of rain but everyone is OK. I have heard about scattered power outages but our power is on at the house and at PIU and we have been able to check updates on TV and on the net. The storm center is about 100-150 miles southwest of Guam and the nearest pass, at about 90 miles, is supposed to happen at 10 AM; about 2 hours from now. We had our first session of the Ministry Equipping Conference last night and hope to be able to have the other two sessions tonight and tomorrow morning. Morning classes are cancelled today and we will make a decision later this morning about afternoon classes and chapel. It is looking likely that they will be cancelled as well. Joyce and I have the grandkids with us and we are dry and safe. We would appreciate prayers that the typhoon not turn and head our way!
