Blessings

The days seem to fly by for us - first one and then another - until we wonder where they have all gone!
God has been blessing us abundantly!
He has answered our prayers in caring for our home in Sharpsville. This past month the papers finalized and we are now 1 step closer to the field! We are amazed as we watch God care for each thing that ties us to the states unnecessarily, freeing us to press forward on our journey.
Our boys are growing big and strong! Logan is now 4 months old. During his first month and a half God walked us through some health struggles but again He has blessed and Logan is doing very well. He is a very contented baby who is greatly loved by our family!
The beginning of June we were able to travel to South Carolina where we are able to visit family and make contact with those interested in our ministry in Benin. Great conversations were had and we have another tentative meeting there scheduled for November.
As we post this update we are preparing for yet another trip! Praise the LORD that Joseph's employer has been gracious in allowing time off as we anticipate a week of VBS at Pleasant Hills Baptist Church in Sterling Ohio. They have asked if we would speak about ministry in Benin and missions to their kids each day! We are very excited and pray that God would both prepare us and the hearts of those kids! Joseph will be presenting our ministry on Sunday evening, July7th as well.
Our family will be participating in the wedding of Joseph's youngest sister, Joy on July 6th in upstate New York before heading to Ohio!
Through all this - though the miles are many - we are so blessed to have kids who take long car trips in stride! (Thank the Lord for Adventures in Odyssey stories that help keep us all entertained!)
Thank you for your continual support and prayers! We look forward to updating again soon!
