State-side Time Ends

How Nice To Have Been Home

We have just finished our 1^st furlough. It was 9 months. This “state-side assignment” was very much needed and enjoyed. Our time in the states ended as we returned to Honduras the 4^th of Feb. We saw family, friends and supporters from Atlanta to Denver, but most of our time we spent in Memphis. Having never taken a furlough, I feel that we had a good balance between work and rest. We were able to:

• visit with many supporters speak to 9 different churches
• present our 1^st dinner banquet
• lead 2 mission trips (Kingston & Mexico)
• receive training at the YFC national office.

Regarding “rest” we saw many of our family & friends over Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year. One of the highlights was taking our Honduran friend, Karla, with us to Denver for her to see snow for the first time.
