We have been very busy finishing up with our activities in Kansas City, so sorry these updates have not been as up to date! :)
Pastor Nelson at Trinity, Independence welcomed us to his wonderful church.
Grace wanted this picture on the website since she took it! :) We spoke Sunday morning and then had the rare opportunity to attend a night church, so we just went back that night too. There was a neat time of testimonies and insirational readings by the congregation on things that they were learning in their walk with God over the last weeks or months. It was such a breath of fresh air to see a congregation not thinking about doing away with Sunday nights, which have always been my favorite servcies! :)
Here are Randy and MaryJane James. They are going to Africa and have been some of our closest friends in Kansas City. Praise God they finally sold their house!!
Then it was off to Arkansas. I really need a picture of our hero (besides God) who fixed our airconditionnig for the cost of the parts! He wanted to save us $1,300!!
Leon, you're awesome, and one of the reasons we smile today when there is hot weather!
OK, you're not going to believe this, but we were invited to "Toad Suck Daze" in Conway, AR. We jsut couldn't refuse. We saw gator on a stick, real frog's legs and crawdads, along with foot long corn dogs and the other regular fair fare. We went with one of the most wonderful families you will ever meet: Johnny Ray, Denise, Emily, Shelby, and Jayden Lake.
You'll never guess who does not like Merry Go Rounds! :) Come on Johnny, it's supposed to be "Merry!"
One more...
OK, more on the next page too -- too cute!
