Where to begin??
There are times when there is so much going on it is hard to write and then, at times there is nothing going on!
We have been in the States March, April and May then back to Juba for about 5 weeks in the States again until Sept 18. Well at least for me that is how it is going. Lynn has had to go back to Juba for about 2 weeks for a big meeting the church is having so he will return Sept 1 and then go back with me Sept 18. I have a feeling he will not know what time zone he is in for a while!😃
We have had a lot of nice family time but we have been traveling all over the place - Ohio, Penn. Michigan, Florida, Nebraska, Missouri and Kentucky. I have been lucky on this last trip to be able to drive on back roads and see how beautiful this country is.

I am learning to enjoy all aspects of this crazy time in the States, from meeting new people all the time, to talking about our Faith with people we just met to discussing sports teams and of course our President. I am constantly challenged by people concerning my Faith and what I want to stand for and how I want to be seen. I am humbled by what I see so many churches and individuals doing. I am struck by how when we put Christ first how many of these other " things" don't matter.

I don't know if we have told everyone and I am to lazy to read through my other posts, but Lynn and I have signed up for another 2 years of this work and we will see what God says at that time. I know I say this a lot but it is true, I really do feel alive and at peace doing this work.

Sorry this is short but I just can't think of anything more to say.

Thank you for reading my rambling thoughts!!
