We had very encouraging visits to supporting churches and interested churches during April and May. In April we went to the NE to visit Orchard Covenant in Indian Orchard, MA and ECC Springfield. This was Pete’s first time to the area. We also toured a bit and visited Pete’s cousin family just outside of Springfield. Highlights were the tour of Boston, or is that Bahston?, Gloucester, Fenway Park (but a rainout for the game with the Twins), and seeing the area. <\/p>\n

In May we visited churches in KS, IA and MN plus trips to Chicago for Carl’s graduation May 16 and to Covenant Harbor Bible Camp to spend Memorial Day weekend with our kids. What fun. Thanks Lord!! We are truly blessed. <\/p>\n
