Coup
I just wanted to give a quick update regarding the coup in Niger. I've received quite a few emails regarding my safety. I can assure you that everything is peaceful in Niger, and life seems to be continuing on as normal. I was fortunate to get into the country a couple days before the event occurred. And, I was riding on the bus from Niamey to Maradi on that day. Really, I wouldn't have know that anything was going on if someone hadn't told me about it. So, as of now, it seems like it will remain a relatively peaceful country. I'll let you know if I hear anything new.

Wow, Kara. We will certainly be praying for you. I add to this comment a note that Uncle Steve wrote but somehow wasn't able to post.

Hi Kara--Greetings across the many miles from northwest Iowa to Niger. Aunt
Linda and I will be praying that you have a great trip. We were reminded of Niger recently when we watched a "Words of Hope" DVD about the ministry in Niger. We will be praying for good health for you and a productive trip as you meet with folks and gain insight into future goals for your
ministry. Aunt Linda and I are doing fine. I don't know if you will be
around but we will be in Michigan March 4-7 for a conference I will be attending at Western Seminary. The next week we will be taking care of Jacob while his parents are in Jamaica. That could be an interesting
experience for us (semi)old folks! God's blessings. Uncle Steve
