God blessed us this past month with a very encouraging week with friends from one of our supporting churches in Nova Scotia. Jim and Daphne Cox came over for a two week "Exposure to Missions" trip and were able to extend their time here for one more week and spend some time with us.
We were so excited when they first wrote to us about this excursion. Not only were we anxious to see them again and get caught up with them and all our friends in Fall River, but we also had so many places we would love to show them. We had to narrow it down to what we could fit into 6 days.
We ended up going to a couple of places in Manila, attending the church where we worshiped for many years, coming up to our home on the flight center, walking around our local market, flying into one of our tribal stations and visiting what is locally known as the 8th Wonder of the World – the Banaue Rice Terraces.
Our inspirational week with the Coxes brought blessing after blessing. Whether we were spending hours in our car going from place to place, walking on a trail around the surrounding villages or enjoying a cup of coffee together in our home, their encouraging words and interest in our work will linger in our memories for a long time.
