Wondering Again …

January 23, 2021

Thought I would share a short, revised excerpt from our January newsletter this month. ‘As I began to think about writing this month (January), I was mindful of what I wrote last year at this time. I wondered what this new year, 2020, would bring and if my hands would be open to accept what […]

Grateful Beyond Words …

November 29, 2020

Our hearts are truly grateful for all that HE has done for us this past year. Needless to say, it has not been a very pleasant year due to the restrictions of the corona virus but we have seen His faithfulness. He has sustained us, protected us, encouraged us, blessed us, and has lifted our […]

New Grandbaby … Comes Early!

October 26, 2020

Our new grandbaby decided to make her appearance two months early! Needless to say, it was quite unexpected! As soon as we got word that she was coming and nothing was going to stop her, we literally threw our stuff together and headed out of town. We have not met her face-to-face but all the […]

Because …

March 26, 2020

During the time that I have been in WY and Jared and our leadership have been in meeting after meeting, concerning the virus that is hitting our world, and the direction the school needs to take, someone surprised, blessed and encouraged my hubby with a simple note and a gift that spoke to his heart. […]

In Tune With HIM …

December 12, 2019

Recently in my evangelism girls prayer group I shared a devotional about how God as the Creator desires for us to be in tune with HIM and HIS plan. Although we each may play a different instrument in the symphony, we need to play the part that HE intended for us to play. In order […]

September Whirlwind …

September 30, 2019

September was a whirlwind for Jared and me. We took a short break to visit family and friends and saw His faithfulness all along the way! Traveling through eight states and clocking close to four thousand miles was a bit rough on us but so worth the time with all those special people! We left […]

Encouragement …

Our Hearts Rejoice …

June 10, 2019

How wonderful it is to spend time with family! Holly and the grandkids were able to come for a short visit in early June. We did not “do” anything special except spend time together. Doing things like going to the park and eating freeze pops on the back porch in the afternoon became an ordinary […]

Fun Times …

September 29, 2018

It is always special spending time with family and we treasure every moment that God gives us! During our recent visit with our girls we were able to make memories with our grands! Pray for our girls and their husbands … as they continue to invest into the lives of the “gifts” that God has […]

Little Did We Know …

June 27, 2018

Ten years ago this very month we packed up our barrels, told our co-workers we would see them later, gave hugs, waved, and left Paraguay for our one year home assignment. Little did we know at that time that we would not be physically going back to be a part of that team. We had […]
