Illinois Meetings


My beautiful (and great with child) wife and I just returned from meetings in the wonderful state of Illinois (for those of you from the South or who just don't know your states, you don't pronounce the "s" in Illinois). We had a great Saturday night and Sunday morning with Pastor Farmer and his family in Milledgeville at Community Baptist Church. We had a good time talking with his two boys who are praying about missionary aviation. Then Sunday night we went to my family's home church in Coal Valley, Believers Baptist Church. In both churches we presented the Wings as Eagles ministry and our burden for Africa. We also were able to preach in both churches. It was awesome to be home for a few days and spend time with family.
We stopped at Camp Joy Wednesday night and heard Ron Comfort preach. It was family camp that night so we met several people we knew including Mike Harris from Falls and Pastor Irmler from Springfield, IL. We also hit a deer on the way home...my first. Pray that everything works out in that situation. We were hoping to sell the car soon!
Abby is doing great! She is due July 19 and feeling it more every day. She has done wonderful with our schedule and with all the driving. She is an awesome wife!!
Dad, Mom, Chris, and Emily are doing great. I helped Chris move some of the barn debris and burn alot of it.
Jim was home from Greenville just for a few hours on Sunday. It was great to see him and Jill from Frankfort.
Jessica, Wyatt, and Amelia (Mia) are doing great. We had a fun time with them as usual! Wyatt cried when it was time for them to go.

Nice slam about the southerns (like my dad) not knowing how to pronounce that sick name -- any state wherein Cubs reside has got to be bad. Glad to hear everything is going good -- escxept for the deer. You know, if you were a good southerner you would thrown that bad boy on the trunk and told everybody that you shot a ten pointer. Why waste good meat? Anyway -- don't let your wife boss you around and drink more sweet tea -- it is good for you.
