I'm continuing to pray for you, Greg and your family and for God to
bless the ministry.  I find it better to try to minister to others than to
do nothing except worry about my own problems.  It makes you feel good when
you know you could be doing something to help someone else come to God.
Since I have got into the ministry I try to focus on helping them as much as
I can.  It has really helped me to go on since I've lost my sight.
