Winter Travels
This Thanksgiving, we thank God for who He is and His many blessings over this past year. Looking back, we have seen God’s provision in various ways, His protective hands as we travel, His goodness in the birth of our daughter, and His great mercy and love to each one of us in the salvation He has bestowed on us. We are thankful for our wonderful family and friends and their support as we press forward to the mission field.
We spent this full month of November in Colorado visiting churches. We began in Aurora with Bethel Baptist Church, where we had a wonderful meeting and Katie spent time with the ladies at a Ladies Luncheon.
That week, we received more snow than most of us had ever seen in person. From there, God protected us as we drove over the mountains to Grand Junction during a snowstorm. We had a wonderful time at Liberty Baptist Church, before heading to Steamboat Springs. It was great to spend the weekend with IBCS graduates now pastoring First Baptist Church. It’s exciting to see how God is using people we know all over the world for His glory.
We finished our trip with West Street Baptist Church in Pueblo and Fruita Faith Baptist Church in Fruita.
We also had the opportunity to spend Thanksgiving with a pastor and his wife in Eagle; it was a wonderful day where we were joined by a Filipino couple celebrating their first Thanksgiving and a young Israeli man. Please be praying for this young man, that God would open his eyes to his need for God’s free gift of salvation.
This coming January, we will be taking a 2-week survey trip to Spain. Praise the Lord, the tickets have already been paid for with support received. During this trip, we will be visiting some missionaries in Madrid, seeing their ministry, and exploring where would be the best place for us to be based.
