The Master Daytimer posts the schedule!

Hello all of you, Beloved of the Lord! Thank you for keeping up with us on this journey and for your prayers to the Father in our behalf. It has been challenging to stay put in one place but as the bitter cold weather rolled in, it became easier to stay hunkered down in our winter clothes, sleeping bags and next to the trusty little space heaters. Only the hardiest of folks are heading off down the waterway, good sailing when winds are from the north but chilleeeeeee! We almost sailed together with a sweet couple we met here at the marina. They were willing to help Frank with his boat projects, the filters were changed but then the engine wouldn't start! We said goodbye to Mark & Dorissa with hopes that we'll be able to fellowship with them again when we meet up.

Since the last post we were at a crossroads, having a dilemma, in a pickle of sorts! Things were not coming together mechanically, electrically or plumberly in order to be able to drop the lines and leave the dock. God has his reasons for this delay/change of plans.... As Lesley cried out to Him for answers and help with her burden , He heard and is making a way! Our friend Russell Tatum got us in touch with an Alternative cancer practitioner that has used himself. He has helped thousands of people in all stages of cancer, his specialty is prostate but is very knowledgeable in treating all kinds. It's been about 10 days since we have been implementing this new protocol and we are seeing a big improvement! Frank's pain is abating and he is getting good nights sleep,
and he is exercising a little and has more energy when before he was wiped out nearly all the time. He has his times of being fatiqued although the practitioner said that is completely normal. For the next 20 - 50 days we have to stay on track with this. He has to take detoxifying baths 2x a day and ingest a baking soda solution to majorly raise his PH to cancer killing levels and he is on a few other supplements to assist the immune function and do in the cancer cells. We are establishing a routine with the baths at the marina. It would be very difficult to do that sort of thing while traveling on a boat in the cold, freezing weather!

So the Master Daytimer slots in a schedule for baths and baking soda, meals inbetween supplements etc.. The engine work and the rest of the boat work is on hold for now, we are about 85% done and the rest of it is not difficult. As the month moves on we have less opportunity to take the boat down the intracoastal and get set up down in Fla. before we'd have to turn around and come back. So that is out of the picture for now as is taking the boat with a crew of brothers outside in the ocean. At this time of year the Northerly winds and the Gulf Stream can whip up very quickly, making for an uncomfortable trip!
What we do have is a slot of time to close up the boat, pack the van and head down to Florida via the interstate. We have been given the opportunity to stay with different brothers & sisters throughout the state for a bit. Frank can continue his regime and get some needed sun and when the cold snap, snaps hopefully some heat and some swims.

We have accomplished alot at the dock here in North Carolina, preparing the boat to use in living aboard to do ministry and we have made many contacts here. Frank has had a unique ministry here at the marina with the different boaters. The marina showers and laundry room have been his favorite meeting place as it is nice and warm. The folks here know where Captain Frank is at 4:30 am.!

Even though we are on hold as far as boat travel, we are hoping that when the winter weather breaks we can return to the boat here in NC. to finish the jobs. Summer may be the time for fine tuning things and taking it out on "shake down" cruises with the family and others. That way we will be prepared as much as we are able to follow the course of our Heavenly Master Planner!

Thankyou again for your much appreciated prayers, encouragement and support.
As always we look forward to hearing from you!
The Mullen's 7 for Him
