Reflections on Weekend Updates

I thought I'd give a more detailed update about this past weekend. On Friday, we drove to Wellington, Ohio, which is where Kathi's sister lives. We went there to celebrate the birthdays of both of Kathi's nieces. Cute kids. Saturday we had a birthday party extravaganza at the Clevaland Zoo. Would have been more enjoyable if it hadn't been blazing hot outside. Good times none the less.

On Sunday, we spoke at our sending church in Dellroy, Ohio. God really empowered us to communicate this vision of missions in Germany. We were able to speak for a good 20 minutes, and then the pastor followed that up with a awesome devotional on being a sending church. Afterwards we received so much encouragement and support from the congregation. The whole time really exceeded our expectations.

Monday we were able to hang out with Brian and Karin, and then Tuesday the four of us had lunch with Randy and Sarah. We all indulged in some sweet Applebee's action. I love Applebee's! Anyway, it was a great weekend.
