Church History: Today was a good day at our church. We only have 2 weeks left to worship with our church family, so it’s starting to get a little emotional. We went out with some good friends today for lunch, then we spent the rest of the afternoon working on a new newsletter to send out tomorrow. Also, I’m working on my paper for church history class at Columbia Biblical Seminary. I’m almost finished. Can’t wait to be done with it so I can start working on my new classes.
On Vacation: Well, we’re coming home today from Siesta Key. We’ve had a great time on vacation with Janell’s family. It’s been raining a little, but we did get a good sunset last night.

Last day at Nielsen: Today is Janell’s last day working at Nielsen. We are entering into a huge transition time as we continue to work towards moving to Mexico. There is a lot for us to do in the next few weeks, and I’m going to need her help. Nielsen has been an awesome place for her to work, and we appreciate all that everyone there has done for us.
Here are some photos I took last week during my trip to Mexico City. Thanks to everyone who was praying for this trip. It couldn’t have gone much better than it did. We saw God open many doors, giving us many incredible contacts with people. There is an excitement in the air for the new program to train youth workers at the seminary, and God is doing some great things in Mexico.
