Our family will travel to the U.S. October 2nd for our regularly scheduled trip, returning November 17. We ask your prayers for a safe and uneventful trip, as well as for getting our itinerary set up soon. We're still working on that one.

This time around we'll be traveling to Abilene, Texas, to visit the Baker Heights church, which has supported us since 1984. Last trip we visited the Mt. Vernon church in Park City, Ken., also a long-time supporter.

Since these two churches are the longest from our main base in Arkansas and Mississippi, we swap out visits every other trip.

Other churches where we will report are these:

Center Hill, Paragould, Ark. (sponsor) Iuka, Miss. Acton, Tenn. Lemalsamac, Newbern, Tenn. Somers Ave., North Little Rock, Ark.

Please send up a special prayer of thanksgiving and request for blessing for these wonderful people. They make it possible for us to do as much as we do.

If you live in the U.S., we hope to be able to visit or call you as well. Please keep in touch.
