So Thankful

Ginger Jordan, Stephen’s wife, the mother of four of our grandchildren, and our daughter-in-love, wrote a precious article about our visit  so we wanted to share it with you.  We could not have written it any better.  We are so thankful for her and blessed that the Lord has allowed her to be part of our family!

Ginger’s article:  

"We have been privileged this week to spend time with our family who has crossed oceans to reach us. Stephen’s sister and her three teenage boys, traveled from the States to spend ten days with us. Stephen’s parents traveled from Papua New Guinea, where they are also missionaries. Organizing, eating, and traveling provided its challenges when there are twelve people in our group. We are so thankful to the Lord. So thankful for the wonderful attitudes of everyone, especially the three teenage boys, even when nine out of twelve of us got sick with a 24-hour flu within a day of them arriving to our island. We are so thankful for the safety provided in our sight-seeing adventures, although an overnight stay in a hospital for one of our nephews was not a planned adventure. We are thankful for medical help available to alleviate his severe pain, possibly caused by a jellyfish sting. Please continue to pray with us as Stephen’s sister and nephews will be leaving us soon to return home. Stephen’s parents will remain with us for a couple more weeks. We are thankful for time with family, and the memories that we made that will carry us through until the next time we are together."
