During these past 18 days since we've been back in the US, God has so beautifully orchestrated time with godly and wise couples. We've been able to spend time in prayer together, share our victories, and our heart's desires as we begin this...unplanned by us, but ordained by God----time back in the states.
The top photo is of Jeff's parents, Stan and Eleanor, who have been a constant stream of encouragement to us all of our 29 years of marriage. They have prayed for us unceasingly, supported and listened at all times. How wonderful it was to be able to spend time with them in Diane's hometown, Minneapolis, and enjoy the fall colors at Lake Minnehaha Park together, soaking up their love and godly wisdom!

The second photo is of George and Donna, our pastors to missionaries. They "just happened" to be taking a trip to Chicago from California, which put them on the interstate just a couple miles from the home in Iowa in which we are staying. They served the Lord for 30 years in Venezuela and had some excellent counsel for us! They were a great encouragement to us as we enjoyed a Mexican meal together. We were blessed to be able to share this special time together and glean from their godly wisdom, as well.
The third photo is of Dave and Becky, who served faithfully on the mission field in Bangladesh. We spent an evening together in their home sharing a meal, battlefield stories and good humor! How precious to nurture this friendship that God orchestrated a few years ago through their implementation of our "Senders" group. Dave and Becky were scheduled to visit us in Rio in October to provide some leadership training, and instead we were able to enjoy some time together here in Iowa!
Psalms 1:1 Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers.
