Throughout our lives we have been so blessed with friendships and ministry opportunities. This blog is meant to share what God has been doing in, for and through us. It is also used as a resource page for teaching and preaching Dave has had the opportunity to do. We do this for the purpose of GLORIFYING GOD and HELPING OTHERS GLORIFY GOD.

Remodeling and more
This morning Joel is getting his stitches out. Please continue to pray for him.
We think we had a pink eye problem in the family. Joel and Krista had it but we think we got it early enough so that it did not get to bad.
In the midst of all of this our apartment is starting its second week of remodeling. Our kitchen and living room furniture is out in the lounge. Pray that the guys will be able to finish the job as quickly as possible. Pray also for flexibility on our part.
We have several pictures to post as soon as we find the cord that goes from our camera to our computer.
Classes start on the 15th, a week from today. Pray for the new semester.
