Great Joy followed by Great Sorrow

     Hello everyone, God has blessed us so very much over this past weekend in Youngstown Alberta. First we were able to stay in two different homes of great Christian families that displayed the love of Christ to our family. Sunday morning was a great time of praise and worship with the congregation of the  Youngstown Gospel Chapel, I was able to share God's Word and share our Purpose, Vision, Mission and Plan as we get ready to go to Mexico as missionaries.
     We were also able to attend the closing of week one (teen camp) at the camp that the Youngstown Gospel Chapel runs and supports. It was a blessing for our family to see such a great number of campers excited about God.
     We were able to acquire some more prayer support into our "Prayer Warrior Team" and as you and them pray please continue to pray for the safety as we travel, and for our financial support to come in quickly so we can be on the mission field sooner for the need is great and we are ready to go.
     I also have a prayer request for one of my best friends family. My friend Ken went to be with the Lord today, and I would ask that you pray for Ken's family. Please pray for each by name and that God would lift them up and give them strength and the peace that passes all understanding. Please pray for Kathleen (wife) Breanne (daughter) Nicholas and Brittany (son and daughter-in-law).
     May God bless you all as you pray for our friends and continue to pray for us as we prepare to go into Mexico as missionaries as your team members in the field. Looking forward to teaming and  doing the kingdom work with you.
