Hello Friends,
Summer is in full swing with the long sun-filled days ahead we are enjoying the season. For us that means enjoying the outdoors, seeing friends, seeing our kids and grand-kids, traveling to Eastern Europe for ministry and spending time with family.
Special Family Updates . . .
The first few days of this month, for the 4th of July, we were in Nashville with one of our sons, Ryan and his
family. It was wonderful to just sit around, go to coffee shops, and watch our two grandkids run with non stop energy. We had hamburgers on the grill and watched lots of Fireworks from his front yard. So much fun.
We are so proud of all four of our kids as they grew up all over the world, with three of them having been born overseas. Ryan for example, was born in Costa Rica and went to Kindergarten and First and Second grades in Moscow, Russia and then Jacksonville, Florida for third and fourth grades, and from there went the rest of the grades in Budapest, Hungary where he graduated from High School. He then to West Palm Beach, Florida where he received his degree from Palm Beach Atlantic University.
For the past eleven years he has worked for the Dave Ramsey Financial Organization in Franklin, TN.
It’s been the grace of God that our “missionary kids” have done so well having lived in so many countries and having moved so 
many times with our ministry.
