Friends

Dear everybody,

We were so thrilled to have some guests come to our house lately. Mark and Bekah Perry are friends of ours from our Bible College days at Northland Baptist Bible College (now Northland University). During those days, we talked of "some day" getting together again once we were on the mission field. And that day became a reality!

Mark is an assistant pastor in a church in Ohio. They also help out with the Seniors and Teen groups in their church. It was so much fun to reconnect with them and to hear how the Lord is using them.

We also enjoyed showing them our neck of the woods. Of course they fell in love with Lican Camp - Who wouldn't? :). Here's a picture Bekah took of Dan and I on camp property.

We took them to our churches in Conaripe and Liquine. They shared a word of testimony and Bekah joined me in the teen Sunday school I teach.

We went souvenir shopping in Villarrica and Pucon, where they took us out to eat.

Not only did they spoil us with their visit but also brought us some goodies.

What does a missionary miss from the Good Ol' USA?

Chocolate Chips! Bath and Body Works products, Bible study books in English, ziploc bags (yep, I'm not kidding)...

The kids were thrilled with some new walkie talkies and Morgan received some new hair ties. Even our baby girl on the way got some new clothes. Thanks Mark and Bekah!

Mark did me a huge favor when he volunteered to trim the kids' hair for me... no trip to the barber this month! Thanks again Mark!

There would be much, much more to mention but those were the definite highlights. We enjoy visitors so if you get a chance, come and see us!
