Family Time


We are in Portland Oregon with all the kids and having a wonderful time with them all. Was able to spend a few days at the coast in Lincoln City. It was chilly and foggy most of the time, but we had a very nice place to stay and had a great time just hanging out and walking on the beach. Portland was in the mid to upper 90's and at the coast it was in the 50's and 60's with a strong wind most of the time. It was hard to believe there was that much of a temperature change in that distance.

On Sunday we were able to drive down to Salem and attend church with Hokie. We were able to share a little about Rafiki and their work in Africa with h
is Sunday School class. It was a wonderful time of worship with the fellowship at Salem First Baptist. In the afternoon we met with Josh and Heather Dunn, who are leaving soon for missionary training in North Carolina. It was wonderful to see their excitement and how the Lord is leading in their lives.
This week has been even hotter in Portland. It seems strange to come from Africa and be hotter here than there. We are blessed to serve in Rwanda. Where the days will be in the upper 80's and the in the sun it is hot, but if you can get into some shade with a little breeze, it is comfortable. And it will cool off during the nights to the low 60's by morning. We were so hot that we got a hotel room for a couple days so we can all enjoy the pool. It is like another mini vacation and fun to watch Audrey in the pool.

We have so enjoyed our time with all the kids and of course Audrey is such a delight.
