Time flies!!!!

Wow,
So much time has gone by since our last post, and so much has happened.  I will try to give a snippet of each month until we catch up..

December:
All of our preparations for SNU's Commission Unto Mexico came to a close as we gathered for the event in Monclova Mexico from December 27-Jan 3.  Praise the Lord all went well.  We did not have anyone get very sick or hurt, and a great time was had by all who either attended or helped.  God is good!!!!!

January:
This month was a little slower.  We worked and tried to relax from all of our hard work for Commission unto Mexico.

February:
Spoke at New Braunfels church, and had a great time catching up with some who had come to El Paso for a Work and witness trip.

March:
Spoke at San Angelo first, and got to share the word with some really great people.  Our kids fell in love with the people.  Also got to spend some time with a missionary friend that Robert had met his freshman year in college, Steve Heap.  It was great to spend some time with him and hear what God is doing in Brazil.


April:
This month has already been crazy busy with two trips, one to dallas, one to Mexico, and one to come to Houston.
This month was also the month that my sister Lili returned to the hospital because of a relapse of leukemia, thus our very important trip to dallas.


I have to share some God stories with yall (yes I just typed yall). 
Lili's doctor had checked the national registry to find a donor, but none were available.  My siblings and I got tested and two of us were complete matches.  God provided!!!!
Well today, in talking with my mother, the God story further unfolded.  The nurse informed my mom that finding a sibling match in a family is usually very difficult, and to find even one was very slim.  We not only found one, but two, and Lili's identical twin makes three!  Did you catch that?  The nurse explained to my mom how highly unusual this was!  My God specializes!!  May the Glory be given all to HIM!!!!!!

We will try to do a better Job at keeping yall informed!

Oh, I forgot, in the midst of life and managing the office, working, and just living, we have been overseeing the continued construction of a house.  This meant daily trips to the other side of town (30 mins) to check on the progress, and then painting so that carpet could be laid, but we don't do much ;0)
