Expecting the unexpected

Well, an interesting thing happened the other day. God made the almost impossible- happen. Many of you already know by now but I thought it was time to let everyone in on the big news. We are expecting our fifth baby next year in March. This is a huge surprise to us since we thought Cathy could no longer get pregnant. Apparently, God had another plan in mind. This changes our plans for our return to Tanzania but that is the life of a missionary.
The doctor told us that it would be very dangerous for Cathy to have another C-section so we are praying for a safe delivery of the new baby. It will also be a whole new experience raising a new baby in a 3rd world country so we would appreciate your prayers for the baby's health as well. The baby is due the end of March 2010.
Speaking of health, the whole entire Schultz family has been hit hard with colds, allergies and various forms of whatever is being passed around. I am really surprised at how much we have been ill lately. Please pray for us.
We have been busy preaching and giving a report of our work in Tanzania every Sunday at our supporting churches. However, this weekend we not be traveling but will instead be taking part in a huge teen outreach called "Harvest Fest". We are expecting 1100 or more teens and are praying that many will be saved.
This weekend will be the last weekend "off" until Christmas. The whole month of October will be extremely busy for me as I fly to LA twice, CO once and then drive to Ontario Canada for a mission conference. Please pray for me as I travel and for the rest of the family as the hectic schedule tends to wear everyone down a little.
Thanks so much for your prayers!
