November 6, 2010


Maybe a week or so and we find out about Elizabeth’s FBI fingerprint records.  In the meantime we have been learning patience.  We have been reading our Bibles, praying, being Jesus to people we meet and encouraging people to do more than they thought they could through Christ strengthening them. 

We would like to say it has been all joy but life isn’t like that.  We can count it joy, which we are trying to do but some days are much more thrilling than others.  We were not promised continuous happiness but peace, knowing that life is going to happen according to God’s plans not ours.  I have been scanning all of our old pictures into the computers.  We will take an I Mac and Toshiba 17” laptop with us. No more desktops. It is a very long process to scan 1000 pictures and then I have to scan documents next.  We will move with just six suitcases. 

We are enjoying spending time with our family and friends.  I have been going hunting and fishing more than I have in years with Joe, Elijah and my friend Buster from church and Nissan.  Lots of great conversations!

We will send another update as soon as we know something about Elizabeth’s process, please pray hard and if you know anyone who would like to help us by praying or giving please let us know!
