Friends Along the Way

Well, I am playing "catch-up" now.
Molly and Joe have been long time friends of ours.  They have a precious 6 month old and Molly is pregnant again - due in several months.
Pat and Terry.  
Pat was one of my bridesmaids.  We haven't seen each other in like 20 years.  Way too long.  We enjoyed getting reacquainted and vowed to see each other more often.  Our quick 3 hour lunch date was wonderful.
Joseph family
We've known this sweet family for years and years.  They have visited us in Bolivia and now in Guatemala too.  We are so proud of their teenage kids.
Marshall family
It was also fun to interact with my sister and her family.  Glenn and I made our Mexican casserole dinner for them to help Michelle celebrate her birthday.
Joan
Joan and her husband served with Glenn and me on the Parent Council at John Brown University several years ago.  It was great to re-connect with her also.
John
We enjoyed 2 days with the Tarwater family.  John shared his testimony in Spanish during the chapel at RGBI.  Way to go John, bien hecho!
We also introduced the Tarwater kids to letterboxing at a local state park.
  Fun Times.
Finally, we had a great visit with the Camino family that lives down in South Texas.  Thank you, Arlene, for opening your home.

Alexanders
We had the wonderful experience to share our ministry and also promote our upcoming Conference in April 2013, the need for workers to help with the 20+ Camino children.
 Kristen
4 years ago, Kristen and her husband came to Guatemala to help with the children's program during conference.  Now she has 2 kids of her own, and is trusting the Lord to direct her to join the team again in 2013.
Aunt Hattie
Finally, we stopped by to see Aunt Hattie (my mother's aunt).  And of course I asked for several of her hand crochet dishrags.  Thanks for lunch.
