~Elijah's first haircut~

~Our girls had their last violin and piano lesson on Friday June 19th. With us going to visit our church in Cartagena for nearly 2 weeks, then coming back to TONS of work to do to get ready to go to the USA and pack up and move, I knew that we wouldn't have time for the girls to practice their instruments like they should. Here they are with their teacher Adriana. She's a dear. (I think that Kimberly needs to brush her teeth more. HA! (These are Billy Bob teeth.=)

~Also on Friday June 19th (which was my sweet sister Laura's birthday) Phillip got back from a ministry trip to Medellin. He brought these cute cookies back for our kids.~

~On Saturday June 20th before we flew out to visit our church in Cartagena for 13 days, Phillip gave Elijah his first hair cut. We strapped him in a chair so he wouldn't fall, gave him cookies to eat, and he did great. =)We had TONS of things to do before we were to fly that day. In the human it looked impossible, but God really helped us and we made our airplane on time. =)

~Elijah being silly...all trimmed and ready for our trip~

Today, Kelly Becker comes to help us for 4 weeks or so. We are EXCITED to have her come. She is the youngest daughter of our dear mission director(s) Mark and Krystal Becker. We will love having her here with us, just wish that we could be more settled. If you recall, we have to move before we go to the USA in August, so things won't quite be like I would like them while she is here. =) Please pray that Kelly will have a safe trip and a safe and profitable time here in Colombia. Thanks! =)

God is BIGGER than satan ever was and we are praying with you that the precious Blood of Jesus will help you all as you endeavor to plant seeds for God's glory there in Columbia.

How thankful we are for this wonderful technology that helps our Daddy and Moma and Gramp and Gram hearts to keep up across the miles. We have moved the antique port-a-crib to the garret room and will soon get the old iron one set up for a visit from our little Elijah! Love to you all!; July 10, 2009 at 12:22 AM

Mission's UpDate!

Dec. 18th, 2015 found us coming back to the U.S.A. from South America, but to continue working as full-time missionaries with our mission.
With our Children's age, we have been planning for years to come back at this time.
We remain under appointment with Global Holiness Mission to continue serving Colombia and Argentina.
We will be making trips to teach, preach, and disciple the nationals on the fields.
Now that we are serving our people with missions trips from out of the States, we will also be ministering via digital and written ministry in Spanish and English for those that are on the field. We so appreciate all of y'all's prayers for us! None of this would be possible if it weren't for a team effort of you and others like you. God has been doing great things, let's ask and expect more from Him!
