Nathan and Rachel Allen “The harvest is great, but the workers are few. So pray to the Lord who is in charge of the harvest; ask him to send more workers into his fields.”
Campers were side by side
This year we broke the mold and headed farther north to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan for our vacation.
With parents at Lower Falls Island

Cook out with Georges
With the students mostly gone, how do we fill our time?
Work in the office and at home, building relationships with friends and family and lots of fun! (more…)
What would you do if you left the suitcase packed with all your children’s clothes at home? Well, we didn’t quite leave it at home. We had some help not bringing it with us to Cincinnati.
We had some student friends living with us last week while they were packing all their belongings and cleaning their apartment. On Saturday morning we were both getting ready to leave and had suitcases all over the first floor of our house. In the hurried pace of the morning they ended up taking our kids suitcase with them to Missouri! (more…)
Homemade cardboard sleds, lots of snow and a competition…who’s in? This last Saturday Leighanna’s school had their 6th annual Ground Hog Day Derby. It ended up being a great family project. (more…)
What does Christmas mean to you? Family and giving gifts are two of the the words that come to mind at Christmas time. We were able to have several celebrations of Christ’s birth this year. (more…)
Our thanksgiving turkey was prepared a bit unconventionally. Our friends Rob and Amy Ellis introduced us to cooking our turkey in a trash can. This was a year of new traditions. (more…)
It has not been all work and no play though. We were blessed to be able to take two vacations. Our Destinations were Texas and Northern Michigan. (more…)
Two months have flown by and we have not kept you in the loop of our lives…Exciting news: we are moved into a house owned by the Bible School across the street from the building. 
This is a first for our family. We love having a backyard, garage and extra room for you to come visit. (more…)
What would be your ideal birthday? I told Nathan what a perfect birthday would be for me and he delivered. (more…)
It was wonderful to spend Christmas at home this year. This break there has been just the right amount of activity. Enough to keep us busy, yet not too crazy.
Our activities included a trip to Cabela’s (World’s Foremost Outfitter), 4 different Christmas celebrations, experiencing the light display at the fair grounds and of course playing games. (more…)
