Our friends
We have friends who have been living in China with their 5 children ages 9 to 3 for the last 10 months. Currently the father of the family is back in the US for one of his two oldest children's High School graduation (there are 7 children total). After graduation he and his oldest daughter will be flying back to China and she will be with them for 3 weeks.
They need prayer because China is a little crazy about the Mexican Flu and will be quarantining them for a total of 7 days if anyone on their return flight has a fever or any sign of illness.
The family would miss a week of their big sisters' visit and mom and dad who are both in their 50's would be split for a prolonged time. With five little ones, teaching at a Chinese school full time and still running you own household all on your own can be overwhelming (shopping via bus rides, cooking, manning nighttime bad dreams, nighttime sips of water/potty breaks, etc.) Mom and dad are also each others company when you live in a country where communication is limited through language.
Pray for the H family a miracle of 100% health for everyone on the return flight to China.

Here's an update from our friends!
---------------------
Dear Friends...
At 6AM Pacific time, dad and daughter are supposed to depart. Please "ask" for an on-time airplane as they have only 50 minutes to make their connection in Chicago or Shanghai. Then a 15 hour flight and upon arrival in Shanghai, government medical personnel will board the aircraft to take everyone's temperature and collect the medical cards. This can take 1-2 additional hours. Please ask for NO FEVERS and PATIENCE for our weary travelers.
Then, believing that there will be no fevers, they will catch a domestic flight to bring them back home to Wuhan.
We truly covet your prayers during this sensitive time. Just yesterday the news Here was heavily covering the DEATH of a man from Missouri from Swine Flu.
Remembering Who parted the Red Sea and is ALWAYS IN CHARGE,
-The Rest of the H Family
