so this week we got to play super patriotic americans and celebrate the fourth of july, the birthday of the u.s.a. we had fun with our friends in south bend but got rained out of the parade and fireworks. we were a bit depresses that it was the only 4th we will have in the states for four more years and we missed all the festivities. we did find out that the fireworks near our home town happened to have been canceled and were rescheduled for the day we got home! it might be silly to praise the Lord for fireworks but it was a really special night for our family and the girls loved it. so praise the Lord!!!!!! we have been doing so much traveling and are feeling a bit worn out. we have had late nights and long drives but as i said before lots of family time and lots of fun trips along the way (we stopped at the louisville zoo on our way home from kentucky last week. thanks to all who hosted us while we were there!). if and when we get all of our renewed faith promises in we will be at about 50% of our funds. now thats something to praise the Lord about. this time of home ministries has been so much better than last time. we are so encouraged and energized by the response of out team (old members and new ones) who are standing behind and sending us on to do this work in NZ!!! God is good and so are the people he has brought into our lives to support our family. thank you God for being so good to us!!!!!
