Prayer is important, yet so often we don’t do it. Sadly when God answers prayer we fail to give Him thanks. We want to take this opportunity to thank God for all He has done in our lives and ministry over the last few months, and thank Him for what He has done and is doing in the lives of our children. God has been good to us. We want to say thank you, also, to all of you who have prayed for us and given financially so that we can continue serving here in Florida at our mission’s home office. We appreciate all who have partnered with us. God is building His church and you, along with us, have had a small part in being His hands and feet to accomplish His work in the tribes around the world.
Our Family
Because you prayed – New Job! Our son, Jason, and his wife, Tiffany, along with our two grandsons, Jaxon and Mason, live in Colorado. Jason was recently hired by the power company, a job that will keep him closer to home, something he has wanted for a long time. We enjoy the modern marvel of Skype so that we can see our grand- children growing up, even though they live far away.
Because you prayed – Graduation! We have known from the day that she was born that our daughter, Heather, was not an angel. However, we are proud to announce that, regardless, she has now earned her wings. In July, we were privileged to attend her graduation from flight school and see her receive her wings. Now she is an official pilot! Pray for her safety in all this, but more importantly, for spiritual safety in a very secular world.
Because you prayed – Life spared! We praise God for sparing our son’s life. Cody was on his way to morning classes at his college in Jacksonville when his pickup truck was tee-boned and knocked off the street onto its side. He managed to crawl out the window with the help of a Good Samaritan. His truck was totaled as well as the other car. The other driver had a broken ankle. Cody suffered some whiplash, but has managed to stay in school and do some part time work on weekends. Please pray for complete recovery for him and for the other driver.
Because you prayed – We confess that we can’t always figure out what God is doing in our lives or in those of our children. Our youngest daughter, Haley, is in such a class. She did some part time work this summer, but did not make enough to return to Bible School. Somehow, we know that even this is part of God’s plan for her life and ours. Please pray for her, that she would find a full or part-time job soon in order to save up money to go back to school if that is what the Lord has for her. We pray this will be a growing and learning time for her, as well. She, also, needs wisdom about whether to buy a car at this time or not.
