The first event of this month was the baptism of our newest grand-daughter, Eliana Dawn, Wil and Amy's daughter. She was born October 16th. Her
name means "the Lord answered" and she is the answer to a six year long prayer. Paul used the baptism ceremony his Dad used and the questions my Dad would ask of the parents and church family. It was a great time of celebration.We then spent a week with Anna, putting gutters on her/our house in Chattanooga and spending time together. At the end of the week was Mission to the World's Global Missions Conference. Paul lead two seminars on partnering with churches to care for missionaries and we were both on a panel talking about issues unique to missionary life. We saw many old friends and made new ones. Two of my sisters and my brother were also there so that was really special.
Time to go spend some time with Joanna and Sam Ward, two of our grandkids so will continue this later.

It was so neat how dad used parts of Grandpa's and PopPop's marriage cerimonies at our wedding, too.
I'm glad I am getting to share in each of these adventures with you :)
Hello!
I loved reading your blog. I am a college student from San Diego, Ca and am planning a backpacking trip through europe with a few friends this summer. We thought it would be cool to spend some time with missionaries in the different areas, serving them and seeing what God is doing. Who you be interested in allowing us to serve you for a few days this summer?
Pleases contact me!
In christ,
