Keith’s note – We have made contact with his family, he leaves behind a wife and a 6 year old daughter back home in Nepal. Just on Monday, I was getting my hair cut and he came by as he wanted a quick trim to look good for his trip home as his 6 months was up and he was leaving on Wednesday for home. We visited while Rosie was finishing my haircut. Please join us in prayer for his family.
