The many sides of Elijah!!

Reaching the South African U

We have recently accepted an assignment to return to South Africa to plan and implement a ministry with the South African church to reach university students. The location is still to be determined, probably Johannesburg or Pretoria. We are excited to reach one of the most strategic and faith-challenged segments of this generation. Our goal is to partner with the national church to establish an effective, relevant, and sustainable outreach to initially one university. Long term, the hope is that a model of campus witnessing and fellowship can then be replicated to reach other universities. This effort will require new prayer and financial partners. Will you consider partnering with us to reach this key group? These students are not only the future leaders of South Africa, but of the entire continent of Africa. The universities of South Africa are gatherings of African leaders-to-be. Will you help the church reach them?

Brothers

Josiah and Elijah love to be around each other.

Family expands

We apologize for not updating the blog sooner. Between newsletters, blogs, Facebook & Flicker photos it can be quite the challenge.
If you haven't seen already, our family has expanded. On May 12th we welcomed Elijah Joseph into our family. He weighed in at 8 pounds 7 ounces and 21 inches long.

Twelve weeks later he has grown to 14 pounds 8 ounces and 25 1/4 inches! A big boy indeed. He belly laughs and tells you what is on his mind. He and his brother absolutely love each other. Josiah begins kindergarten on August 6th. He turns 6 years old on November 1st.
