Thinking about Parke

Hey Parke! We saw a sign to you in Berlin and we looked everywhere but couldn't find you! Where were you?! We love you and miss you! ;)

More space in my kitchen!

We had a guy come and add some cabinets in our kitchen. I can finally put everything away :) So here are some pictures for those family members who keep asking about it!

Family Bike Ride

A big thank you to our family of supporters who bought us bikes at the end of last year! We now have two bikes and two kiddie seats for our girls and so we've been taking advantage of the beautiful spring weather we're having here in Poland. We've been trekking through the forests around our home looking at all the new life around us. Leaves are growing, flowers are sprouting, the birds have come back from the warmer countries so we've seen storks and ducks and birds that I have no idea what they are named! It is wonderful experiencing all the new life around us. It is impossible not to be infected with the hope it reveals in Jesus Christ. I love spring!

New Car!

God heard our cry and provided through a faithful friend money for a car! We've been praying for a few years about a reliable car with seven seats. We were in need of a bigger car for ministry and for when we have visitors and the many trips to airports and have been keeping our eyes out for something. So when we were surprised with an end-of-the-year gift we prayed about what to use the money for. And after three long months of looking for a car in Germany, Belgium, and Poland this is the one we were waiting for! God is faithful to us and he led us to whom we found out later to be "the most honest guy in Tychy"! We bought this 2004 Opel Zafira from his used car lot in March right before my parents came over with the team from RiverTree Church in Huntsville, Alabama. It's a diesel engine which is the best to have here- the gas is cheaper and the engines last a lot longer than petrol engines. It has about 56,000 miles on it and looks as if it's never been driven. We took it to the Opel service to have the car checked before we bought it and the manager of the service department said he would buy it if we didn't. It's a very good car! And of course we've already had our chance to put it to good use! We took a road trip with my parents and the girls to Berlin and we all got to ride together! It is so nice to enjoy this blessing- especially with others. Thank you so much for this good gift!
