The Lord blessed our trip with some special times together. We were able to meet up with some prayer partners we\u2019d never met face to face, celebrate 2 great-grandchildren birthdays and spent two days with Nancy\u2019s parents who were some of our first co-workers in Asia-Pacific. We reminisced over a lot of shared memories of the Lord\u2019s faithfulness in our lives. They were part of the team to open the Semandang tribal work, the first work that NTM entered in Asia-Pacific. It was really neat to reconnect with our grandchildren and the 5 great-grandchildren who are growing up so quickly. And great-grandpa got beat arm wrestling for the first time in history \u2013 by his 15-year-old great-grandson!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"388\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/arm-wrestling-600x388.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-209\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/arm-wrestling-600x388.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/arm-wrestling-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/arm-wrestling-768x496.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/arm-wrestling-1536x992.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/arm-wrestling-2048x1323.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/arm-wrestling-125x81.jpg 125w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/arm-wrestling-250x161.jpg 250w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/arm-wrestling-392x253.jpg 392w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/arm-wrestling-1920x1240.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"371\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/Milwaukee-1-600x371.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-211\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/Milwaukee-1-600x371.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/Milwaukee-1-300x186.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/Milwaukee-1-125x77.jpg 125w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/Milwaukee-1-250x155.jpg 250w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/Milwaukee-1-409x253.jpg 409w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/darcy-berglund\/files\/2022\/08\/Milwaukee-1.jpg 653w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>Walk around lake with Eric and the 5 great grandchildren<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Doug and Nancy are getting ready to go back to Asia-Pacific and Greg and Pam are already back there and well into their respective ministries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are still in the process of preparing Jaruma Alatala, the Embaloh Bible, for reprinting.
