Philippians 1:6– Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Dear Friends,<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It is our prayer that this letter finds all of you doing well. Our Lord continues to bless us and keep us very busy with the kids and also opportunities to be a blessing to others. To be honest, it sure does become tiring at times but it is our hearts desire to be able to be a channel of blessing as the Lord provides the means and opportunities.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Chaz recently accepted the Jesus as his Savior and was baptized this past Sunday. It is blessings such as this that makes everything worth it all.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
As you can see from one of the pictures, Daulton graduated from Navy Recruit Training in Great Lakes, Ill.\u00a0 His sister Mimi, our grandson Stephen, and myself drove up for the graduation. It was a very special day. He graduated on a\u00a0 Friday and then flew to Pensacola, Fl. on Friday to start school there.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Then, also, our container finally finished clearing customs in Israel. Each container is a learning experience! From a few of the pictures, you can see the container as it arrives at the warehouse in Israel where it is unloaded, then you can see a couple of pictures of the clothes being given out.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Then, there are pictures of Sissie, some of our children, and friends as they make up and deliver food boxes to a very needy area in Denham Springs that was flooded. The needs in this area will continue to be many for many months to come.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
As I mentioned in my last update, The Lord has impressed on us, because of all of the major flooding,\u00a0 the need to minister locally this year instead of our normal Christmas container to Romania. In regards to this, I am attaching a letter (Christmas in South Louisiana) that describes how this will be handled. If you are interested in helping in this respect, the contact info is in this letter. As I have said before, I do not think that anyone can realize the economic impact on this area. Again, if you are a person that lives in that area, or know of a person, that has special needs, please let us know. I never promise anything, but we will be glad to help if we can.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
As always, thank you so much for your continued prayers and support! May The Lord continue to richly bless all of you.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In His Service,<\/div>\n
Johnny<\/div>\n
