Responding to Family. . .

Krista left for Scotland today for a 13 day mission trip. What a switch for us? She is usually taking me to the airport for some type of mission adventure. The point of departure was filled with emotion. Matthew was crying, I started to cry, but Krista told me to stop. . . Matthew had tear stained cheeks when I let him off at Pre-school. I wonder what he thinks of us leaving home to take the message of Christ to someone new. I am excited that Krista ventured out to the mission field for a while. I pray that it is a time of renewal and a time that will build her zeal for serving God. Pray for her as she travels 8000+ miles over the next few days. Pray that those that are waiting to hear Gods word from her have hearts that are ready for change. Its time to change because the Kingdom of God is at hand

Weekend on the Delta . . .

A family time on the Delta, more specifically, Brannan Island State Recreation Area. The summer campout for the Davis Park Church of Christ was a time of great fun in a time of adversity. Temps were above 100 degrees and the wind seemed like gale force winds. The water at the swimmin hole was 72 degrees. Most of the time I stood in the water up to my neck and just enojoyed the natural coolnes of the water. Matthew had a blast with the other kids, throwing mud, boatriding and ridge-running. Most of the my time was spent talking to my brothers and sisters in Christ that I usually do not have time to visit with.

Have a great day
