Missions Conference Eifel Baptist Church Germany

"I thank my God upon every remembrance of you..." Philippians 1:3


Good morning, dear friends,

Pastor and Mrs. Pilalas invited us out for lunch
This weekend we had the special blessing of attending the Missions Conference at Eifel Baptist Church in Germany, one of our long-time supporting churches.  It was a special blessing to us to be with these great military folk stationed at Spangdahelm Air Force Base, and rub shoulders with some of our "heroes of the faith," our brothers and sisters in Christ in the US military.
For me it was especially nice to reconnect with some of the ladies from the Retreat in February.  It was almost like a family reunion!  Only the Lord could create such special bonds in such a short time!  

New friends from the Ladies Retreat, united again!

It was great to see our kids relaxed and welcomed by the other children, to the point of crying themselves to sleep when we returned home. Our children loved the encouragement of being with other kids in similar situations as they are--living far from their "home country"-- and enjoyed the fun, fellowship and service together.

Juliana made a new friend with Addie
The children sang a beautiful Servant's Heart

Thank you so much for your special blessings!  (More about that in tomorrow's blog!) We miss you all already!



Libby and I, our wonderful hostess for the week
