“Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well” (3 John 2).

Dear Family & Friends,

As we write this, Jonathan is almost 12 weeks old and we are learning more every day about being parents. Last month we mentioned his syndaticilia, or the birth defect that he has. We have consulted several pediatricians and we have received the name of a specialist that we hope will be able to see him soon. It appears that they won’t be able to operate until he is older, but we want to be able to get on a waiting list. We ask that you please keep this in your prayers.
In July, we had a visit from Angela’s parents. They were excited to meet their first grandchild, and we enjoyed having their help with the baby and around the house. It was a good visit and lots of photos were taken to be shown to friends and family in the States. Angela has been busy at home with the baby, but hopefully we will soon be able to post some of the pictures and video on our blog.
Angela recently returned to her work at EOC. Scott graciously took over the burden of the bookkeeping for the past couple of months to allow her time with the baby. The summer is now over and the groups have gone, but there is still work to be done. This season 74 houses were built for needy families. It is a lower number than in years past, due to the number of groups that cancelled, but we thank God for every group that came and allowed a family to receive a house.
Although we are not currently part of the children’s ministry at church, Daniel had the opportunity to participate in their camp last month. This year, they stayed in cabins at a local campground that is on the river and has two swimming pools. Daniel was part of a “Walk with Jesus”. He was Jesus and led the kids on a walk through his life. As they walked the dirt roads, they saw Jesus baptized in the river, heal the sick, feed the multitude, and perform other miracles. Daniel enjoyed participating and the kids greatly enjoyed seeing the Bible come to life.
Daniel now has another new job. He was recently voted in as the regional secretary/treasurer for the Assemblies of God pastors.
Thank you for being a part of our ministry. Your prayers are an important part of our lives. God bless you!

In Christ,

Daniel & Angela Camacho
