Ron and Marsha Navamanie are missionaries in Sri Lanka. Marsha is a member of Emmaus Lutheran in Bloomington, MN. She is the daughter of the Gene Quist's.
Hope everyone is enjoying their summers. We are not having such a good time here, please pray for us.
Marsha had a bad flu virus three weeks ago, it took her two full weeks to get over it, it was terrible. Miriam has it now and she seems even worse, if that is possible. We had her blood checked today and it was not good, White blood cells are half what they should be and her platelet count is very low, almost in the danger level for Dengue Fever. We have to take her for another blood test tomorrow. Please pray for the Lord's healing for her. She can't keep any food down and still has a fever after four days. She was suppose to help with VBS this week and then go as a helper on the Youth for Christ Deeper Life camp starting tomorrow. She is really disappointed. She also has a lot of school work to complete before the end of the month. Many people here are praying for her, but we thought adding all your prayers would also help. We appreciate you all and your prayers for us.
I have 18 kids for VBS as of today, Tuesday. They are not kids I know well, not sure if my English is too difficult for them. Please pray I can make it relevant for them. It isn't easy doing this coming off this bad flu, still don't feel strong, stomach is still giving me problems after three weeks. With Miriam also sick and trying to make things she would like, it is not easy, so please pray for us.
Thanks so much, Marsha
