Final bday blog of the year...

Throughout the year, we have highlighted each of our family on their special day.
Today we celebrate the birthday of son-in-law #3, Christopher.
Thnkful for your godly heritage.
When you first started "coming around" the house 10 years ago,
little did we realize that this little girl would become the love of your life.
Little did we realize that God had designed you
to be the godly man that this little girl needed.
Little did we realize that you would become a permanent feature to the family.
But we are so thankful that God's plan brought us all together!
We love you SIL #3 - Chris!
H*A*P*P*Y***B*I*R*T*H*D*A*Y!

Recent Happenings with "FAMILY"

 
 
From November 1-8 we worked alongside this team from Brainerd, Chattanooga,
and 34 church members from Canaan in Nearar.
Brainerd team members included:
Carlos, and wife Sylvia.
Joey, Brittany and husband Rusty, and Brian.
 
Antonio in the white t-shirt is the young man from Canaan
who has a passion to reach the people of Nearar for Christ.
He stayed an additional night (the church had to return to Chimaltenango on Sunday)
to assist the team with another outreach on Monday.
 
Willie, a young man from Canaan was a wonderful translator for the team.
Hope his schedule will allow us to use him more often.
He has a great passion to reach folks with the Gospel of Christ.
 
Luis, in front, was a super van driver who loves the Lord.
 
Precious eternal impacting time with brothers and sisters...
the family of Christ!
 
 
It was a wonderful week and I will update more of the details of the week but after we put them on the plane Thursday morning, we hurredly returned home to wash clothes, update emails and do a little future planning, pack and get back to the airport on Friday morning to head out the states.

So what are we doing?
 

 
 
Well, tonight we are enjoying time with long time friends, Bill and Vicki...
