November 13

We are winding down for the year with meetings in Harrington and Lewes, DE and Norfolk, VA. The Lord has been working in our meetings as we saw 13 accept Christ in a small church in Pennsylvania! After Thanksgiving we will be leading the Christmas Cantata at our church on December 14. Please pray that this will come together for His glory. We are both in good health and our vehicles are running well at the moment. Thank you so much for your prayers for us and our ministry!

I don't know about you, but our summer flew by! We are looking forward to a full fall schedule and we praise the Lord for allowing us to be on the road for nearly 14 years. At the moment, our truck is running excellently (just flipped 100,000 miles) and our trailer, which is 7 years old, is operating well. We are currently working with Glenn Christianson to produce a book with 33 of our original songs, tunes, and arrangements. People have requested songs that aren't in print so we hope that this will fill those needs and be a blessing. A few days ago we came upon a terrible accident on I-70 in Ohio. A woman had rear-ended a semi. When she swerved to miss it she drove the passenger side into the trailer and killed the passenger. I got out to see if I could be of assistance and I heard the driver screaming and crying. It sent chills up my spine. When I saw the passenger I knew she was gone because of the gruesome injuries to her face and head. Reflecting back on that moment I am thankful that I know where I will spend eternity when I die. I'm also thankful for God's protection and for those who pray for us. Thanks again for all the prayers and support that are offered on our behalf! God bless!

Our trip to Mexico went very well as we saw many accept Christ! We were kept totally safe so praise the Lord for His protection. The capital city of Zacatecas is beautiful. The population total between Zacatecas and Guadalupe is about 250,000. Both missionary families were very gracious to us. The meals were so good and having a wifi connection was such a blessing. After returning from our trip we headed to Tucson, AZ to be at New Testament Baptist with Pastor J.C. Joiner. Drew joined us for a week and we had a blast with him. We then made our way to Springfield, CO for a Wednesday evening service and then on to Watertown, SD for a half week. Now we are in Wisconsin for five weeks with three of those weeks at Camp Chetek. Thanks again for the prayers and support!

We arrived in Mexico safely on Saturday and were greeted by two American missionaries who are working together here in Zacatecas/Guadalupe. Our accommodations are very nice with fast wifi which is not a necessity but is very helpful. Yesterday we were in two churches and saw three people accept Christ. Today we are going to pass out flyers and have another service tonight. We are very safe here and there is a good police presence around. We just don't go out at night. The services are at 5 pm so we don't have to drive in the dark. Thanks for praying!

May 30

Tomorrow morning we leave for a two week trip to Zacatecas, Mexico. Please pray the following: for the Lord to work through the preaching of His Word, for the music to minister to hearts, and for our health and safety. I'll send out updates when I can. Thanks!

It is great to have Heather back! She enjoyed a busy week with her family in Arkansas. I managed to have most everything clean and washed when she returned.

We had the black water valve shipped to the Camping World and it is in the shop. The hourly labor is $129 so we're hoping it takes less time to fix. Since our trailer is our home we are sitting in the truck in a parking lot working on what we can.

We started meetings yesterday at Faith Baptist Tabernacle in North Highlands, CA with Pastor Mike Rodgers and we go through Wednesday.

In the past two weeks God has given us wonderful ministry opportunities at Faith Baptist in Atascadero, CA and Calvary Baptist in Oroville, CA. Several were born again and great decisions were made. The fellowship has been sweet and we are really enjoying our time in CA. The past two weeks have been in rural CA and the springtime here has been gorgeous. We're looking forward to Allie and Aubrey joining us for the summer in less than two weeks!

We have next week off so I'm taking the trailer the Camping World to have our black water handle/valve fixed. It's in the shut position but the valve is frozen in the open position. Fortunately, we have an emergency valve on the end of our pipe so we can stop it from freely flowing out. :)

Heather is flying home for a week so we'd appreciate your prayers for her safety.  Thanks for your prayers and support!
