Although his left leg is still immobile, he is gaining muscle mass in it. He is able to grasp the parallel bars with his right hand to balance himself enough to take steps with his right foot, all the way from one end to the other (of the parallel bars). The physical therapist assists with moving his left foot, as he walks with his right foot. He has improved significantly with transferring from one seat to another, and lifting\/crossing his right leg over his left leg (while seated) to remove and put on socks. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>We are praying that God will restore his ability to move his left leg\/foot on his own, so he may come home to continue additional physical therapy. Your calls, visits, and cards of encouragement have been a tremendous source of encouragement!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Thank you for your continued prayers!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>His address for the time being is:<\/em><\/p>\n<p>5348 Hammill Road<\/p>\n<p>El Monte, CA 91732<\/p>\n<p>Please pray for all three of these men who serve God as part of the Legacy Institute.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you,<\/p>\n<p>Leon Sexton<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear friends, We made prayer requests for the employee (Surachai) and student (Moepalay) who were injured in a motorcycle accident.
