I know it has been awhile since I last posted. I was doing pretty well keeping up with the website, but my Father went home to be with the Lord in April of this year. The last 4 months I have been focused on helping my mother make the adjustment. My plan is start back again with the updates in September. Until then, keep plugging away – God is doing some great things in rural ministry and I think the future is bright.
