ICL Internship Training
Hello from East Palo Alto,
I wanted to give you a glimpse of where I will be for the next week in The 'Lord's Land' Retreat Center. It is off Highway 1 just a few miles south of Mendocino, CA. This area of the California Redwoods was a huge draw in the early 1960's when Jesus People were living together in communal settings much like the Early Church in the Book of Acts. The passing of this era left a peaceful retreat remotely placed on the Northern California coastline. There is little to no digital phone signal in that area, so my email/phone communication will be nil for the week. During this week we will be training the 2007 participants in the Internship for Christian Leaders (ICL) program sponsored at Bayshore Christian Ministries.
This is the 3rd year that I have provided this level of training for these interns, thanks to an invitation from my good friend John Liotti in 2004. Things have changed dramatically since that time, and I am anticipating a fruitful time of growth in all of our lives this week. I always learn something about myself during these training times.
Keep us in your prayers for safe travel to and from the Lord's Land.

Aunt Ruth & Mommy waiting for li'l Mikey to come out with his bionic jaw
Mahjong - better than Solitaire to relieve the stress of waiting.
Dr. Ali came out about 1pm and let us know that the procedure went fine and there are two small incisions where they put they put the plate in. He has a drain tube and he will wear braces for about 6 weeks.
Praise God that the surgery went well and I can travel to Northern California with the assurance that God's Mighty Hand will manifest His healing power in Michael's life. Extreme gratitude to all of you who have been (and continue to be) praying.
He is not feeling real comfortable right now, so visitors would not be a great idea, but if you want to comment here, Dahlia will be sharing any regards to him from this Blog Entry.
Plans are for him to be released Saturday morning, and allow him to rest while the swelling goes down. His head is completely bandaged, and he is not able to speak well yet. Give him a few days, and he will be his soft-spoken little 6'2" self again. Again - thank you so much for praying and standing with us through this time.

Passing the night at hospital with Mike, I couldn't resist the MyHeritage pull I felt on Jeremy Del Rio's site

Alright now!
Mom and Chantal are here now, so everything's gonna be alright - except for the clear liquid diet for Mike... 6 weeks til the next Fajita Dinner - at Sean's Graduation in August!
Please pray for my son-thanks.
My eldest son is always trying to help someone. Yesterday he saw someone down on the ground in a parking lot and when he went to help, they hit him and broke his jaw. He will go into surgery Thursday and will now have a plate on his jaw & have his jaw wired shut for 6 weeks.
Please pray for a safe procedure and recovery. Thank you so much.
