Hello Friends!

Again, thank you all so much for your love, support and prayers. We have had great opportunities this week.

Last Sunday morning Justin gave a great sermon from the Lord at Piney Point. We also got to encourage the Cross Point Church in Eureka that evening. On Monday Justin contacted several pastors and were able make commitments to visit three churches and give our presentation (which consists of encouraging others into missions and of course seeking support for the Lord's work in Haiti through our family). We do know now that we will be visiting Texas again in October :)! It will be between the Calvary Baptist Women's event also, so i am hoping to join our sisters at that church for their event :). We did need to change the date for our visit with the First Baptist Church of Bentonville. We will now be speaking there on Sunday night, October 3rd. We look forward to seeing Brother Philip Smith again! Thursday night Justin had the privilege of speaking for the men at the Piney Point Men's Study and spoke on Galations 2:20.

We had a great homeschool week! We even were able to start a few schience labs finally! Hoping we can find some caterpillars this upcoming week. The only hard part of traveling and having observation labs is leaving your labs or even traveling with them, but we are doing what we can!

Friday we spent all day driving to join our parents in Tennessee, which is where we are now! We were invited on a week vacation with them. Kevin just learned about land regions and so much more that we were able to apply on the trip down, it was a lot of fun! We also had several witnessing opportunities, which is always encouraging!

Today was our first actual day in Tennessee. We went into Gatlinburg, TN and walked through most of the town. They have some very interesting things: great clothing (my thing, even though i can't bring myself to spend money on anything :), haunted houses (which Justin likes), game places (Kevin's thing)and just a ton of family activities! We hope this week will be relaxing and allow Justin and I to have a much needed date as well as the three and 1/2 of us to catch up on some much needed family time; we have been running a lot lately! However, even in the midst of vacationing, we know our hearts is in spreading the gospel and so we are taking that opportunity here in Tennessee :). We also could never forget our great brothers and sisters who support us in love, prayer and financial. We love you all and will write again next week to let you know what the Lord has allowed to happen for His kingdom in Tennessee!

Bondye Beni Nou,

Justin, Bobbi Ann, Kevin and Annika (she is getting big; or at least momma is!)
