Merry
Christmas! We’re SO blessed to be home to spend the holidays with family again
this year! Every year, God continues to
lead us to a variety of places to serve.
Home for the
first 8 months of 2017, we returned to group classes at our local YMCA (sore
muscles!), planted our vegetable garden, got more involved at church, and got
some projects done at home. In April, we took a road trip to visit Dan’s
cousins in Louisiana, to shop at Magnolia in Waco (TX), and to see Pioneer
Woman’s Mercantile in Pawhuska, OK. In September, we took a 10-week volunteer
assignment in our denominations Eurasia Regional Office in Büsingen, Germany. That resulted in our being asked to join that
team in a longer-term commitment on a 3-months-in-country, 3-months-at-home
schedule for 2018 and maybe 2019. (See the previous post for details) Home for now, we are certainly looking
forward to Christmas at home with our local family and friends.
