It has been a joy to be in the US to see all the changing seasons. Spring is here with all its beautiful colors and shades of green. April showers have definitely brought May flowers, but the rains continue and the grass continues to grow. My children just love mowing the lawn! 🙂
We were blessed to speak at a few churches and even at two Christian schools for their chapels. We had many opportunities to meet new people and visit with friends and relatives.
Our children continue to enjoy their schools, their many activities, and being with their friends. Juliana is finished with soccer, taking first place in their final tournament; and Ashley is almost finished. It is Paul and Ashley’s final week of high school, and Juliana and Abby have one more week left. We are looking forward to returning to the Philippines but we will all miss our friends and family here in the US.
Last week we drove to Wisconsin to pick up Ben who just finished his first year of college. We enjoyed visiting with friends and relatives along the way. Now Ben and our other children are looking for summer employment. Because of our visas, our children are unable to earn money in the Philippines so this is their only opportunity so save money for college. They have filled out several applications; please pray that God will open a door for them.
We just found out that the family who currently lives in our house in the Philippines is moving out right away. That means our house is empty, plus we won’t receive payments. We are looking for someone to live in it for the two months before we return.
At the end of June, we will be driving to Virginia where I, Walter, will attend two classes. It is for further training to work with children with learning differences. Pray for safety in travels and wisdom as I continue to learn more about the children I works with. Cheryl and Abby will accompany me as we hope to see many friends and relatives along the way.
Please pray for our final meetings here in the US that we will be an encouragement, plus we want to challenge people in their involvement with world missions.
God continues to shower blessings on us in many ways. We have had a little increase in our monthly support plus additional money for our outgoing expenses, but we still have a ways to go to meet our goal. Please continue to pray for our monthly support to increase as well as the remaining outgoing expenses to be covered.
We fly back in July! Please pray for us in our final count down.
Thank you,
Walter for the Seven Spicer’s
