On the Road Still

Today we are in Chicago, IL., visiting some of our friends, Will and Rachel Pareja. Will and Rachel were with us for several years in Monterrey, where Will was the men's dormitory supervisor. We are enjoying being with them.

Since leaving Monterrey, we have been in Kansas City (at our home church), Jefferson City (where we caught up with our friends from college, Chris and Amanda George), Rockford, IL (at supporting church Morning Star Baptist where my cousin Bob pastors), Northland Baptist Bible College (where I took a class on Apologetics) and now to Chicago. We are grateful that we don't live in Chicago. Yesterday we got stuck for 2 hours on I-94. Our Garmin (my new toy :-) ) said that we should arrive about 4:06 (when we were 17 miles out). It took us over 2 hours to traverse the 17 miles and arrive at Will and Rachel's house! I believe we arrived at about 6:10. (I don't ever want to live in a big city... oh...wait...I live in a city of four million....never mind!)

Later today we will head to Pekin, IL, to visit our supporting church Faith Baptist. Then we will head to Greenville for family weddings. My brother-in-law (David Chapman) and sister-in-law (Karen Chapman) are getting married (no, not to each other) on the 14th and 17th of June. We will be in Greenville during that time where we will be at several supporting churches.

Please continue to pray for us as we travel. I would also like to thank the Lord for His wonderful provision for our gas expenses. As you all know well, the gas prices are hitting our wallets more than other years. While I can't share all the details, I am thankful for the Lord has provided in an unusual way to cover our gas expenses for the summer. Truly, our Lord is great and good.

While we have been on the road, Aaron turned six years old. I am grateful and thankful for the wonderful children that God has given us.
