How good to greet you again! Are you well.....in the Lord? Saint John says in one of his letters, "I am praying that all is well with you and that your body is as healthy as I know your soul is." As our bodies get older and feebler, we're pulling for our souls!
When all was said and done in 2001, we found that we had made 12 trips during the year. God has a lot of things going on in the world! How glad we are that He chooses to use us in some of them.
Now as we look at 2002, we see some trips/projects falling into place. January's trip is already finished. We drove to Orlando, Florida to deliver some used computers to Missionary Computer Fellowship. This volunteer organization repairs/recycles old computers and sends them to missionaries and mission schools all over the world. Do you have a computer (not a dinosaur!) that you are not using? Save it until next year as we might make this computer delivery an annual event.
January was and February is being used to build parts and plan lessons for the month of March which we plan to spend in Santiago, Chile working with a large Christian radio station. We hope to make some modifications on their transmitters and do some more training of their staff.
February 22 and 23 will put us in Covington, Georgia for a Couples Retreat. Please pray for a God-glorifying time as we ponder on marriage and being "A 10 Cow Spouse". Sound challenging?
Our mid-May through June schedule puts us in Michigan sharing with our supporting churches. It has been several years since we have done that so it will be good to touch base, renew friendships, make some new ones, share stories and give thanks. If you want us at your church, please get in touch to reserve a date. For our churches in the New York area, it looks like October for you....same deal. Please get in touch. And for those miscellaneous churches in Tennessee....just call anytime to set something up. If nobody calls, we'll feel unwanted!
July holds the promise of a youth group coming to spend some time with us in Georgia. We are already starting on a work list!! And August looks like Peru to put up an antenna for a new little radio station.
How good that God doesn't expect us to prepare for this all on our own, nor expend more than our given strength can bear, nor worry about any of the details for HE has promised in His unfailing love to lead the people He has redeemed. (Exodus 15:13)
