please think of us

Dear Friends we cannot thank you enough for all of your thoughts concerning our family.  We know this world has many troubles and that your lives vary from facing valleys quite deep, mountain top experiences and everything in between.  In the midst of life swirling around you, you have kept us before the throne. For that, we can never thank you enough.  As you think of us, be assured, you are ever in our thoughts and prayers as we cherish you, your friendship and your partnership to reach the nations.

If Dad brings us to mind, would you ask for His help with the following events?

• We have all battled fevers, colds and minor yet uncomfortable illnesses over the last 2 weeks. Will you ask that we will all be well by June 2nd?
• Thank Dad for selling ALL of the contents of our apartment!
• 2 days after we land we will drive to TN for Robb's Mom's wedding. Thank Dad for this great gift of marriage for Ruth, and ask that we will be awake, alert and have no re-entry stress during this happy occasion.
• Ask that we would all transition well to our home country.
• Ask for our monthly needs to come in by mid-July.  Our goals were raised slightly and at this point we need $1,600 in monthly gifts.
• Thank Dad for the offers to have a place to stay from many of you while we are home.  We are thrilled and thankful to once again stay with Rob and Suzanne and their children, Jonah and Ellie. Ask that Dad would bless this family for their sacrifice and that our time with them will be just as joyful and intimate as last time.
• Our summer is quite full! Please ask that we would have peace, that we would be wise stewards of our time, and that Dad would get all the credit for the wonderful things He will do with our full schedule.

Thank you once again for being so wonderful! Your thoughts, gifts, words of encouragement and friendship are all part of His good and glorious plan. You have kept us afloat and have helped change lives forever.

With love and gratitude,
Katie
