Summer Update

July 15th, we drove down to Harrisburg, PA to take part in the New Missionary Appointee Recognition service. Each year ABWE has two classes for Canadite- Seminars - one in March and another class in July. Denny and I had the opportunity to be in the March class but we had to come back to Pennsylvania this July to be recognized with both classes. From these two classes there are now 41 new missionary appointees, who are all going to the ends of the earth to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

New Missionaries Appointed to the continent of Africa.

Asher making new friends

 July 16th & 17th, We traveled down Hampton, VA to visit with a friend of mine that I grew up with at church, Jill. It was such a nice time catching up with her and her sweet family. Denny and I had the opportunity to share with them our ministry to Uganda and to share about the culture and people of Uganda. Asher also had a enjoyable time playing with her kids. One of the sweetest memories that I have from our visit is seeing Jill's oldest son take interest in asking Denny questions about being a missionary and not just asking the questions but writing down the answers in a notebook so that he could remember what he learned. A child is never to young to learn about serving the Lord, I pray that God will continue to mold his little heart towards service to Him! On Sunday, we had a wonderful time fellowshipping with their church. Their pastor and the people of Hampton Roads Independent Baptist Church has a heart for people and reaching their community and the ends of the world with Gospels.

Then on Monday, the 18th of July, We traveled back up to Washington D.C. to take part in the 3-day M.E. Conference. The conference was a sweet time of being refreshed through the Word, prayer and fellowship. It was nice being able to interact and here the stories of those who have been faithfully serving the Lord in different parts of the world.

 We had some time to go site seeing... Let's just say the GPS had us walking in the opposite direction of the monuments - so we only got to see the White House... but we did get to see some pretty neighborhoods.

Our Keynote Speaker: Dr. Charles Ware

We were able to have dinner with him & his wife.

Such a sweet couple and ministry they have at Crossroads Bible College in Indiana.
