We will be in Eau Claire, WI from now until August 11.

If you want to hear more about what we’ve been doing these past 2 years and about our future plans for ministry in Brazil,

We are happy to share with individuals, families, small groups, churches, or whoever wants to hear.
Where have we been the last few weeks since leaving Missouri?
We’ve been in Wisconsin:
- reconnecting with Danica’s family at Grandma’s house
- camping and fishing with friends from church
- settling into our new home in Marilyn’s basement
- trying to figure out how to go about living this new phase of life
This one month has packed alot of both fun times and sad times. We’ve been to funerals of two different people who were dear to us: a pastor who mentored Jevon before we were married, and Danica’s Great Grandma. But both of these people are in heaven, and we know that the glory they see in the face of Christ is beyond any beauty we can imagine here. We also heard that Danica’s brother’s baby twins were born prematurely at 23 weeks and went quickly into the arms of Jesus. They will be buried tomorrow in New York, and we aren’t there with them but are praying that tomorrow would be a comforting time for Phil and Julie and both sets of grandparents.
We’ve also had fun fishing with Marilyn…the lady who has given us a nice home in her basement for the summer. In fact, fishing (and fish-eating!) has become such a big part of Cali’s life that she requested to decorate her birthday cupcakes with fish! and we did – gummy fish. 🙂 Cali is pleased to be a four year old, and every time we compliment her on anything she does well she remarks, “that’s because I’m four now”. We are pleased and thankful with all the ways she’s grown – not only in size but also in heart.
That’s the news from the Rich family. Keep us posted on your life, too, as you have time…we love you!
