You might say; time at the beach, extra time with extended family, traveling, etc. Well our family did all of those things and much more! We logged over 5000 miles of travel in our van in 4 weeks. In addition to family vacation, we had the privilege of speaking in 4 churches and some small groups. It was such an encouragement to visit ministry partners and to hear what God is doing in their lives. We also had opportunity to encourage some folks who are struggling spiritually. We returned to our home in Missouri on July 20th and have begun preparing for the new semester at the Missionary Training Center.
