Missionary Monday

Yesterday I got to meet a precious couple (call them "K&K") and their two-year-old son. Neat. For over two years we have "had dinner" with this couple and have prayed for their language studies, their cultural adjustment to Asia, the birth of their son, the many things that they have encountered while being half-way around the world from friends and family to serve the Christ that they love. We found out about them from our friend who was then Youth Pastor to my 2nd and 3rd children. His daughters became good friends of our daughter's, even after they moved to another state and we have kept up with K&K through these friends and felt as if we knew them. Today we were blessed with making that a reality! Pray for them as they complete their "vacation" time in the states and then return to a very cold (literally and spiritually) region of the world. Pray for an easy transition for the 2-year-old who has been on the road with Mom and Dad for many weeks. Pray for the blessings of more children if it be the Lord's will. Pray that their language skills will continue to improve and that they will remain healthy in the midst of much sickness in their city. And Praise that you, too, will meet them face to face someday if you know our Savior! Won't we all have fun celebrating in HIS presence in every tongue and every race and every culture for ever and ever?!
