Busy time of year

It's a busy, busy time of the year!  I am not talking about Thanksgiving and Christmas, I am talking about computers.

The week of Thanksgiving, we went to Miami and picked up a load of computers from a brand new donor.  Today (Monday) we went to Orlando and picked up a load from one of our regular donors, and then received a phone call from another new donor in Orlando to come pick up a load of computers Wednesday.  Praise the Lord!  That's called a busy, busy time of the year. Isn't God good! 

We also donated 12 computers to a brand new ministry in St. Pete that is opening a computer literacy ministry for needy children, and we donated two computers to a ministry working in northern Haiti.

400 cases of toilet paper

Dr. Johnny Strickland, President of Network of Promise, donated 400 cases of toilet paper to Investing in Futures Monday.  200 cases will be going to Larry Pumphrey in Costa Rica and 200 cases will be going to Randy Herring in Honduras.

Richard Howe, from Frostproof, FL, who supports Investing in Futures monthly, brought three of his children, rode with me from Mulberry to Tampa and helped me and Vance transfer the 400 cases from Network of Promise's semi-trailer into Vance's horse trailer.  They then rode back with us to the warehouse in Mulberry and helped us unload the 400 cases of toilet paper, stack them on pallets, and shrink-wrap each pallet ready to be put in the containers when they arrive.

    Richard Howe (on left) with his children and Dr. Johnny Strickland of Network of Promise (on right)    Glory!  Thanks for all the help.

Update on Armenia

 

This week, we had been working with the staff, teaching them the basics of using computer. They are so excited when they learn to turn on, start, and turn off the computer. It is so rewarding to see the progress they make each day. Most of them would not have the opportunity to use computers.

 

We will be getting basic medical programs for clinics from hospitals in Yerevan. Today, more and more businesses in Armenia require basic computer skill. In fact, we have been teaching adults, mostly parents from our center, to use the computer.

Love,

Rebecca

25 computers for Beacon Academy

We donated 25 computers to Beacon Academy in Tampa, Florida.  They are starting a special needs school (K-8)  

 

The kids with whom they will be working are students who need additional speech, reading, math, and behavioral assistance and training beyond what the public schools can offer or afford. 

 

Students will qualify for the McKay Scholarship grant from the government once the county evaluates them.  This is part of the Florida initiative of "no child left behind". 

 

The directors said, "God opened this door for us and we are excited to be a part of it all.  And now, Dr. White, you are a part of it too!"

 

To show their appreciation, they wrote out a $500.00 check.  Wow!  Thanks, Beacon Academy.

Computers for Palm Bay

Dr.White,

We are right now setting up the computers in Stephanie's classroom. The computers will be used to increase the way she is able to teach the children. We are using the computers to put reading programs on the computers so they are able to learn how to read, along with a lot of math programs we have to increase their abilities. We are in such a technological generation that we are using the computers to push these children to the next level.
 
The children with whom Steph works are severely emotionally handicap. The majority of the children are in foster care because their parents have left them or they have been pulled away from their parents for safety. It is estimated that 75% of the kids at this school have been sexually molested. Please pray for the school.  They are limited in resources and have a great need. Thank you so much for helping us reach the emotionally handicap children in Palm Bay. 

 

Jason

Computers to Armenia

 

You may enjoy reading this email I received from Peace Corps workers in Armenia.

 

Dear Mr. Rodney White:

 

On behalf of the villagers of Nerkin Karmir Aghpiur, Aygepar, and Tovuz, I am writing this letter to thank you for your generosity and support for our work in these villages. We will start computer training beginning next week until the nurses are able to enter patient's diagnosis, treatments, medications, and history into the computers. The use of computers will sure help keeping the patient's record more accurate and up to date.

This is a very big step the village nurses are undertaking. We truly appreciate your gifts.

 

With sincere appreciation,

Rebecca Tantama, A-16

Semi load from Valdosta today

We donated a semi load of file cabinets, book cases, media carts, teachers desks and student's school desk to Compassionate Alliance today.  They met me in Valdosta with their semi and we loaded everything in the heat of the day.  It was extremely hot.  However, it was worth it because this semi load will be going to Honduras and Haiti.  Tomorrow, we will donate a whole semi load of student's school desks as well.  That makes two semi loads this week and it is only Monday.  Glory!  A special word of thanks to Mike Powers for loaning us his maintenance crew to help load the semi today.  Mike, you saved our lives.  Thank you so much.

Comments about my finger

I have gotten so many emails about my finger.  Here are some of the comments -

 

One wrote -  At least you can still give us the thumbs up.

 

Another wrote - How will you be able to pick your nose now?  Hello, does he not realize I still have a left hand.  I have to do everything with my left hand now, and I mean everything (like typing on the computer).

 

A pastor phoned from the DC area phoned and said he could go out on the streets and find a finger that has just been cut off (seemingly a normal thing there) and send it to me.  The only problem was that he could not guarantee the size or the tint.  So I told him to go ahead and send one, just make sure it has a well-manicured nail.  

 

One guy wrote – Please do not tell me you made a key chain out of that finger.  I replied, I did, how did you know?  I need it is get into Disney for my season pass - That was my ID finger.

 

You guys are as crazy as I am.

Guyana and Cambodia

Today was a good day for Investing in Futures.  We donated nine computers to missionary Harold Suggs this morning.  He will be shipping them to Guyana, South America.  This afternoon we donated fifteen computers to First Baptist Church at the Mall here in Lakeland.  They will be taking them to Cambodia as they leave Sunday on a missions trip to work with the Trash Mountain Project.  May God go with them and bless them on their trip.

Cut off finger

I cut off the first digit of my index finger last Thursday while unloading a pallet jack.  They could not reattach the digit, so today the hand doctor put me to sleep, folded and sewed my index finger to my palm to graft skin.  In two weeks, I will go back and the doctor will cut it lose.  So I will be a little short since the last time you saw me (get it)?

Did I send out a virus?

I have been getting several email with the subject line: Check out my photos on FB.  I have no idea what that is about.  It may be a virus.

Glory!

When I went to the doctor today, he said that I have healed nicely, took out the one-inch PVC pipe and said, if you can urinate on your own, I will let you go home.  Glory!  I did and came home.  He said he did not want to take out the stone hoping that maybe it will pass on its own now that I am healed up on the inside.  Thank you so much for your prayers.  It feels wonderful to be back in the land of the living instead of being bedridden.  I even drove home from the doctor's office.  My wife has been having to taxi me everywhere.  She has really been a blessing to this big baby.

Run over by a freight train

I thought that light at the end of the tunnel was the end -  it was not -  It was a freight train.

 

Today started out beautifully, but on one trip, everything completely stopped in midstream except the feeling of a razorblade tearing my flesh.  I quickly drank two 20 oz. bottles of water to try and flush a lodged stone, but to no avail.  I phoned the doctor and he said to come to his office immediately.

 

To make a terrible story even more terrible, I am now back home with a 1 inch PVC pipe and a 33-gallon garbage bag which I must wear for two weeks until my insides heal, at which time I have the privilege of getting hit with a sledge hammer again. Glory!

 

The good news is that after looking inside me with a scope again, the doctor said that this stone is the last one.  He made a valiant effort to remove it today but to no avail.  I still desperately need your prayers.

Hit by a sledgehammer

 After I was knocked out, ready for surgery, they apparently told me to bend over and touch my ankles.  Then they hit me on the backside three times with a sledgehammer, trying to break up the bladder stones.    Then they inserted a one-inch in diameter PVC pipe up me, attached to a huge 33-gallon garbage bag, and sent me to my hospital room.  At least that's what it felt like to me when I woke up after the surgery. 

 

Seriously, the doctor was amazed.  He had counted 60-70 stones when he had done a scope weeks before, but when he actually started taking them out, there were over 200.  He brought them out into the waiting room and showed them to my wife and children. 

 

Yesterday they removed the tube and bag, so I am beginning to feel more like a human being now.  It was rough.  Thank you so much for your prayers.  I think I can see a light at the end of the tunnel.
