Clint's part time employer is making hand sanitizer for the CoVid-19 crisis. Clint is taking as much time there as they will give him, because we don't know where this thing will go. They told him last night that he will receive a 10% pay raise there for as long as the crisis lasts. That was a nice bit of positive news for our family. We are very thankful for the way God is looking after us.

Two of my friends in Suffolk who were being monitored for possible CoVid-19 have been cleared.

We've been hearing from so many who are worried, stressed out, frustrated, heartbroken, and weary. We wish we could hug each of you and give you some reassurance. Our young friends are really struggling because they are having to give up such important days in their lives: graduations, dances, milestone birthday parties, weddings, long planned trips, weekly get togethers, skydiving, paintball competitions, internships, sporting events, etc. A lot of the older people have been quite flippant about this. Remember the young people do not have the many years' worth of experiences that give us older folks better perspective and coping skills. Compassion and grace is the way to get through this.

A foreign man was constantly calling my phone last week. I don't answer numbers I do not recognize. I told my Clint about it, so when it rang again, he answered it. The man was speaking Spanish and looking for his lover, Coco. Clint politely told him he had the wrong number, shared the gospel with him, and wished him well.
