As anyone who has travelled with John would know, the Minister's Cat is his favourite game for car trips. And, if you have ever played this game with him, you will know that his superior vocabulary makes him an expert. To play, one person starts by using a descriptive word to describe the 'minister's cat' beginning with a-z. This blog is dedicated to John, in order to update friends and family about his journey and provide areas of prayer.

Many Counsellors
Today was our first family/team meeting at GF Strong. At this meeting we clarified some of my goals to accomplish before I go home. This gives me a sense of direction and a purpose of what I want to accomplish. Before this I felt somewhat like the Israelites wandering around in the desert, not sure what I was trying to do. In addition a discharge date was discussed, so I know when I will tentatively be getting out and coming home. The date is May 3 so it looks like I will be home for my birthday. The meeting was with Laverne and me and Marsha representing the family and 7 reps from different areas of care. This brought to mind Proverbs 15:22 Plans fail for lack of counsel but with many advisers they succeed. At the close of the meeting each area was given something to do. Pray that we will all get our tasks done for the next meeting in a month's time.
