JR Vigil Update

  The night before I left on my current trip to the US Mainland (more on what is happening on the trip coming soon) Joyce and I went over to the Vigil’s house to see JR and the family. The PIU students, with Mike and Samantha were also hanging out over there. It was good to see that JR had regained much of his weight and to see him up and around. He talked with us about how much better he was feeling and how he was thankful that God was giving him a second chance at life. He felt like, with all the miracles of timing that happened to save his life, that God must have something special planned for his life. He also said that he is humbled and thankful that so many people gave toward his medical expenses. He said that he knows his rehab will not be easy but he is feeling confident that he can do it. We were all very encouraged by his attitude and we had a good evening of eating and singing together. Please keep JR in your prayers as he works on his rehab and the family prepares to go to the US mainland early next year to get JR the prosthetics he needs.
