We love our children, God loves them more!

Knowing when my daughter married and they both had a passion for missions, it would only be a matter of time before we knew God would send them somewhere, we just weren't sure where at first.  Taking several mission trips abroad, God finally spoke in their hearts to serve in Kenya; in Narok with a group called AfricaHope. AfricaHope is established in Narok and work with the Maasai people.  They help the Maasai to have better health for their children, along with better crops and opportunity for education. AfricaHope wishes to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ and change lives through truth and hope. My son in law, Kevin, will be working alongside AfricaHope in the rural areas of Narok; and my daughter, Danielle's main task is tending to schooling five year old Eleanor and three year old John.  They also have a sweet 20 month old Madelyn. Danielle will also help with education to the people of Kenya. 

Our family left the states in September, 2011 and will be living and working in Narok for a three year term. We love them and support what God has lead them to do and pray for his watchful eye over our sweet family.

I truly believe the following scripture: "Love the LORD your God, walk in all his ways, obey his commands, hold fast to him and serve Him with all your heart and all your soul." Joshua 22:5  This scripture gives us all something to think and work toward in our lives!
