Sioux Falls Visit

Oh, my! It's been 10 days since we updated the blog.  A lot has happened in those 10 days, too.

We finally finished our last medical test and all the tests showed we are healthy.  Praise God!  As I've said before, the older we get, the more tests we have to take when we have our required physicals.  However, it is good for everyone to keep up on health screenings, even if you don't plan to live overseas.

Over the weekend, we went to Sioux Falls, South Dakota and visited Faith Temple.  We were welcomed warmly and the response to our message was very good.  Thanks, Faith Temple!

The Faith Temple pastors, Jeff and Rhonda Hayes, went to Open Bible College with us.  We enjoyed a wonderful time together on Monday morning catching up and laughing about stories from our college days.  It's a wonder we weren't kicked out of Cracker Barrel for laughing too loud and long!

We were able to spend Sunday afternoon with Mike's extended family.  We shared lunch together and enjoyed meeting new family members and listening to the stories told by the older generation.  Vernon and Tom, were all those stories really true and not exaggerated?

Since Sioux Falls is not too far from Austin, Minnesota, where our son and his family live, we took the opportunity to spend a few days with them between church visits.  There's nothing like hugs from a grandchild!

Our next service will be at the Church of the Open Bible in Huron, South Dakota, Sunday morning at 10:30.  If you are in the area, come see us.
