Heading Back

I am looking forward to learning where the best stops along the way are.  And maybe even some free activities we can do.  We used to have a McWane Center Science Museum membership (which also means you can visit other science museums for free in other states) but have put that on hold until we feel we can "splurge" again.

In other news, we are continuously amazed at how God weaves the interactions of our lives when we commit to obeying. 

We were invited by a friend to come speak to a Sunday School group at Kingwood Baptist Church, TX this past weekend.  So, have RV will travel.  We were able to "boondock" in their parking lot and once again enjoyed our short showers.  This time Bill added a bit more bleach than usual to the water tank (helps keep it sanitary) and let's just say we are sparkling clean!

Bill shared about Believer's Bridge and what we are doing to the adult SS class.  Many were interested and one couple has decided to partner financially with us.  I think God blesses those that in faith commit to something that they have just heard about (Heb. 11:7).  We have many financial partners who knew us but this is the first who have committed w/o having gotten to know us (months or years before).  So if you are reading this, Thank You!!

We also had a few who gave a one time gift.  Thank you to those as well!  We are also excited about the connection that was made.  Our hope is to return sometime in the near future and strengthen the bond.  In fact, we are hoping to host an International Dinner in the area.  We'll keep you posted when we do.

Meanwhile, we are on our way back to our "regular" home.  In fact, time for lunch!  So, until next time, keep the faith!

Update on RV restoration

We were able to get the front put back together again and left AL Thursday evening.  Yay!!

There are still a few interior and exterior details to be done, but it has held up (pun intended) quite nicely.  There is actually less bouncing which really made us incredibly thankful that nothing serious (oh, like kids falling out the front) had happened on our CA trip back.

So, in our excitement that the front was fixed we neglected to realize we hadn't gotten some essential items packed (oh, like sleeping bags/blankets/front curtain/sugar...yes, sugar).

We DID remember to pack pillows.  If I had to forget bedding, I'm glad it wasn't pillows.  Needless to say, we used whatever we could find for blankets last night (jackets and so on).  Can you say "missionary living"?

We are just about to our Texas destination.  Looking forward to sharing what Believer's Bridge is doing in Peru (and soon Brazil) to other folks.  For those that know our work, please pray for receptive hearts and new supporters. 

"I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus."  Phillipians 1:3-6
