Travis is now officially a student at Moody Bible Institute, two years after his initial application. After working this summer in Sierra Vista at two different fast food places, he moved home to pack for school on August 12. His friend Amanda flew here to meet our family on August 13 and then made the trip to Chicago with us on the 18th. She was able to visit the Moody campus with us and see where Travis would be attending school before taking a train to Michigan.
We were glad for the opportunity to take Travis to school, see the campus, meet his roommate and attend parents’ orientation where we learned more about MBI. We enjoyed our first trip to Chicago and look forward to returning for a visit. Travis auditioned and was accepted into a drama team that ministers to young people in Chicago as well as travels to several Midwestern states. He is very excited about using his acting talent for the Lord in this type of ministry. At this point in time, his major is Mass Communication, and his dream is to write and produce Christian videos and movies that will minister to the both believers and unbelievers. Travis was happy that Moody accepted 24 of his transfer credits from last year at New Tribes Bible Institute and Cochise College.
We left Chicago, during rush hour, driving 10 miles an hour in pouring rain, headed for Monroe, Wisconsin to visit my brother Ron. It was great to spend a day together before heading back to McNeal to the work waiting for us here. Our new semester started on August 13 with six new student couples. We’ll tell you more about that next time.
