Welcome

I would love to invite you into my home to have a cup of tea with me. We could sit in my sunny kitchen and talk about all the things that are going on in our lives. I could share with you the news I hear from my grown daughters. How my grandkids are growing. We could laugh together over the funny things that they have said. It would be fun to share the ins and outs of our family life, and talk about our latest creative projects. We could share what God has been teaching us, in our personal lives, and encourage each other on this walk of faith. We could pray together, laugh together, and even cry together. Since most of us will never be able to sit down together face to face, I would like to invite you to join me here. So come on in and have a cup of tea with me.

I have a diverse background, having spent over 30 years living and ministering in a small South American country. Now my family resides in a small town in the lovely state of Tennessee. We have experienced the blessing of adoption, but also the hard of dealing with a child with RAD and other mental health issues. You can live life with the cup half full or half empty the choice is yours. I choose half full.

Springfield, MO

We arrived in Springfield, MO on Saturday afternoon. We have enjoyed spending time with our daughter, Ashley. Sunday we went to church with her and Shane, and I got another special surprise... Lexi and Jonathan were there! So we had a WONDERFUL Mother's Day. After church we went out to lunch and then everyone came back to Ashley's apartment for alittle while. Lexi and Jonathan had to drive back to Kansas City, in the afternoon, but was a very special "gift" to have time with them too.

I have spent the day helping Ashley get alittle more settled into the "new" apartment. That has been fun!

This evening was the first night of "Fellowship Week" here at the college. There will be special services tomorrow evening, and Wednesday evening. Also some meetings in the mornings. Graduation is Thursday morning. We are enjoying this time with Ashley and Shane.

The news we are hearing from Ecuador is mostly good. The landlord at the apartment we rent for the church, has been giving them some trouble, but over all things are going well.

Praying you have a wonderful week!
Joy
