Dean 2010

January 4, 2011

2010 started with me serving at the NTM mobilization center in Jersey Shore, PA doing general maintenance, some construction and grounds work. It had been over a year since I had first agreed to fill in there temporarily while we tried to raise more support to go back to Senegal. In November of 2009 God […]

Merry Christmas

Christmas Greetings This time last year we were in cold Pennsylvania but now we are in sunny, central Florida. Our location has changed but our desire to serve the Lord has not changed.

Fall in Florida

September 20, 2010

It has taken us almost 3 weeks to get the kids registered at school, change over phone, electricity, water, drivers licenses, car registration and all the other paperwork stuff. A necessary evil. Dean found a […]

Aerostar van

June 22, 2010

We are praising the Lord for His timing and provision to get our van fixed. Last year after our summer trip our black van broke down. Friends of ours graciously allowed us to use their van until we could get our van fixed. Dean and his Dad worked on the transmission but when it was […]

House in Florida

June 11, 2010

Praise the Lord, we’ve been offered a house to rent in Florida. This is a wonderful answer to prayer. The rent is very reasonable, it is a 3 bedroom/ 2 bathroom home, fully furnished. We will rent for a year and then see how things are working out. In light of the various circumstances we […]

Freedom, Family and Florida.

Happy Memorial Day! We are so grateful for the freedom we have in the US and the freedom we have in Christ. Even though it was a scorcher of a day we had lots of family fun with friends at their annual memorial day picnic. The kids got wet, Dean and I enjoyed playing volleyball (we […]
