Nazareth House Apostolate

Unfortunately, I received word from James that Mako has relapsed and the illness that plagued him last week has reared its ugly head again… Here is the email that I received from James in Freetown:
Hey Mama Hicks,

Mako here with us at St. Laurence House. He since yesterday beginning to sense same ill signs as he was in Kabala. Not too good at all, i had to drive to pick him up for he just cant feel too good at all. He will spend the night with us and we see what to do tomorrow. I am so troubled again and need lots of prayers.
This is a bad new but have no option but to share it. Its really crazy here. I thought he was resting but with sudden illness again, am so discourage.
Thanks and greetings to all.

Son.

I have talked with James & Kadijah by phone and they are doing all they can to keep Mako stable throughout the weekend until they can get to a doctor on Monday Morning. James will talk with Pa Foday tomorrow and find out news on Lucy’s condition at that time. The picture is of Mako as he helped purchase the zinc sheeting for Robarrie Village.

Please keep teacher Lucy in your prayers. She is suffering severe appendicitis and will undergo surgery soon. The doctor is in Kabala and available. Lucy is a faithful teacher to our students in Kabala, Sierra Leone where we are in the construction completion phase of a new school building for the village children. We are extremely indebted to Lucy, who – along with the other teachers of Nazareth House Kabala School – have been volunteering their time to provide first class education to these village children. We have only recently been able to give some financial assistance to the teachers, but because we most depend on donations and the economy is struggling – it has not been as consistent as we wish. As soon as more details are in, we will let you know how she is progressing. Thank you.

At 5:37 AM this morning, as I was preparing to go down to the church for the early morning Jesus Prayer Office, the hermitage began to shake and continued for about 30 seconds. The police helicopter had been circling since 4 AM, looking for some fleeing criminal, so I thought, at first it was flying low or something. But the shaking continued. If you have ever been in the hermitage- you know of all the books stacked on all the walls. I watched the books vibrate and worried they would soon fall off the shelf. Nothing fell, just a bit of vibration. Immediately my cell phone rang, it was Fr. Seraphim calling from the church to warn me that if it happens again – go outside. Reports are that it was a 5.4 earthquake, minor but widespread, centered in Illinois.
