Partners in our Journey

Here are a few pictures of the people who made us feel like royalty this week. You are the best friends and prayer partners!! I don't know how to start this message. So many great and wonderful things have happened this past week. We were at Grace Baptist Church in Flower Mound, TX. The Missions Conference theme was "Missions: Our Soul Purpose" and what a great week we had. We were with three other missionary families the Keplers to Honduras, the Williams to Peru, and the Princes to Uruguay.

This conference was such a blessing to our family. The preaching, the fellowship and the people of the church have changed us . . . have blessed us. Each night one of the missionaries preached, each night one of the families would take us out for a meal and fellowship, each night the people of the church would be such an encouragement to us. Thanks again for all you have done!!

It's all about the L-O-V-E

We have had a few weeks without any traveling, and we are preparing to get back on the road again. February is going to be the start of a very busy few months. God is blessing and opening doors and giving us more opportunities to tell others about our call to the people of Japan. I am thinking about February and what it means. February is about love, about telling the people who mean the most you that you love them. It's about giving gifts, getting gifts and knowing you are loved - no matter what, you are loved. This brings me to this verse - Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. And that is the reason we want to go to Japan, because God loves us!! God loves us! Even though we are just sinners, God sent Christ to die for us. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him, should not parish, but have everlasting life. God sent his Son and because of that we can have life. Again I tell you, it's all about the love!! God's love!! So this Valentines Day be sure and tell those around you that you love them. Also, tell them about God's love for them.
