Give Thanks to God in ALL Circumstances

Some trust in chariots and some in horses,    but we trust in the name of the Lord our God. Psalm 20:7

Our Present Circumstances…

Today is Dad's 65th Birthday! We wish we could be at his party, but we have obligations here this weekend.  Dad is a multi-talented man with a heart for God's Kingdom.  He devours books and articles (that is where our third child gets it from!). He keeps serving and is a recipient of the Grace of God towards him in Jesus Christ.  We love him!

Cheering on the Otters at the Wrestling Tournament at Spectrum
We had such great fun seeing our friends from Fergus Falls! PJ got to be the towel-tapper for  Mat 2 keeping track of the time for the referee earning him service-learning hours for his class at Spectrum.

Ethan finished up a week of teaching in Iasi with the added blessings of meeting with church leaders in Moldova on Thursday and witnessing the graduation ceremony for the pastors and lay leaders in Iasi on Friday.  It was a personal blessing to him to have been a part of their training for the past three years.  Lord willing, TLI will begin teaching church leaders in other parts of Romania and Eastern Europe.  This weekend he is scouting out another site in Romania where pastors are interested in being trained. Pray for that opportunity.

We miss Daddy. He will be home Tuesday night.

Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. I Thessalonians 5:16-18
