What have we been up to?

• A dear friend of mine visited for 10 days! She works in a CAN (Creative Access Nation) country, so for security purposes, I shouldn't mention her name. It was wonderful to catch up with her and hear how she is ministering in a creative way to a very dark country. God is at work! 
• We are in the middle of a drought. We have been put on water restrictions to conserve the water we do have. Pray for rain! 
• My hockey season is wrapping up. We have one more week (with 3 games!) until we are done. My girls are improving each game and very cheerful, sweet, and fun to work with.
• We had our annual AIM Ladies retreat last month and it was a huge success! I had a small part in planning it this year so it was fun to see the details come together. Praise the Lord  that nearly 100 ladies attended and it was a weekend of refreshment.
• We are experiencing the 4th year itch. Whatever that is. But we feel it. 4 years out with no furlough. We are ready to come back! However, the other night. we heard a great devotional in our Bible Study (thanks, Ryan!) that encouraged us to stay the course and finish strong. I am thankful for God's Word in times of drought (physically and spiritually).

Thanks for following our life here! I will post pictures next time!
