Our Kids

Through this past year, Lana and I have done our best to speak weekly, if not daily about our upcoming transition to the islands of Micronesia as we seek to follow Jesus and share His gospel we will minister to.

It's also been amazing to watch them grow physically, mentally, and even spiritually over this past year to.  A year ago, Liam asked Jesus to save him from the penalty of this sin and Lilli has started to ask some more questions about Jesus as she comprehends more and more of the gospel.  It is our prayer that God take their lives and hearts at an early age and that we would be good Christian examples for them to follow!

Date Time!

During this year of preparation, Lana and I have been trying to get away some without the kids - though to do with three of them under the age of five.  But, we're so thankful for our friends who have helped make it possible for us to be able to focus on each other in the midst of the business!  Some donated hotel points and others let us borrow their airplane - God is good!  We were able to get away for our anniversary last fall and two other weekends, one to Grand Rapids and the other to Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes.  We even flew to Holland on Lake Michigan for a spur of the moment evening dinner...spontaneity is a good time sometimes!

I love this woman and can't imagine doing life and international missions without her - she's a true God send.  I love you Lana!
