I keep trying to start this post and it’s not coming out right.
The Lord is growing and stretching me. Growing isn’t always painless or easy. God is faithful through it all. He gives the peace which passes all understanding. What a might fortress is our God!
We’re still in Kentucky and will be here until the 15th I think. Then we’re down to Jasper for the 22nd. I can’t believe it’s October already!! November 7th still seems a like a long way off. We haven’t been singing much but we sang at a birthday party on Friday night. It was quite an eclectic audience, people from many walks of life. The weather was just perfect. I wish I could capture what I felt in words. God’s goodness and peace is so sweet. Knowing we have a heavenly Father to turn to and talk to all the time and that all we see is temporary is comforting. So, anyway, we’re going to be singing Saturday and hopefully Sunday night as well.
Pictures from this week and last.
Another sunrise….
Sunday at the park…
Bonnie, Hannah, Lydia, Bethany, Abby and some dork that tagged along. ;-)
Birthday party on Saturday….
A tree from our hike on Sunday….
We sang in a grain bin on Sunday at the park and the acoustics were WONDERFUL. It got me thinking how beautiful the music/singing will be in heaven. If an old grain bin can make such luscious sounds what will heaven be like? I know I can’t imagine.

The news is that the bus is fixed! PTL! What a tremendous victory and answer to prayer. Check out Bonnie’s site for a succinct explanation!
We sang after church at the Myer’s house on Sunday.
From Sunday afternoon...
How many people can you fit on a golf cart?
We’ve been phoning people in this area to schedule concerts. Last night, at just the right time, someone called us to sing this Saturday. So, we’ll be here at least until then. We’re praying for God’s plan to be made clear where and when to go from here.
We are so grateful that the Lord brought the Myers into our lives and we appreciate their friendship and commitment to the Lord so very much. I know y’all, or most of y’all, will be reading this so, thank you guys, again.
More pictures…..
I know I’ve slacked off on getting these out. I haven’t been taking many recently so some of these are from Hannah Myers. Thanks Hannah. :-)
We’ve been playing volleyball almost every night.
Vincent and Peter felt confident to take on everyone else. They beat us!
Bonnie and I have been learning how to quilt with the quilter and teacher, Hannah.
The quilting bug has bitten hard. :) Bonnie’s planning on finishing two more before we leave.
The finished products.
Up close.
I’m looking forward to setting up some space at home to start quilting more seriously. I think if I rearrange my room I will be able to set up a desk and use the new industrial machine we’re suppose to take home with us. ;-)
We’ve also been playing Dutch Blitz A LOT. :D Dad started playing and we even got mom and Mrs. Myers to join us one night.
We’ve been helping Jonathan on his house and Mr. M on his. The echo in the house was fantastic for a capella singing. :-) It’s so pleasant to join voices to praise God!

A Kentucky sunrise...
Sorry for not updating sooner! They had a flood in E-Town and the phones were out Saturday. A good excuse for not blogging then, eh? ;-)
The first mechanic was no help! He basically wants to rebuild the engine and not diagnose the problem. We then took it to a Detroit mechanic. We then found out, after several paid hours of them poking around and messing things up, WE knew more than they did. AH! We could only go 25 mph up the hills now compared to 38 mph. We're now looking at replacing some more injectors. Please keep praying we figure out what's going on! Oh and the alternator turned out to be a loose wire, thank the Lord.
Other than that we're having a great time at the Myers house. :-) What a place to be stuck. We've played Dutch Blitz every night. The church service yesterday was great. What a blessing!
We saw the neatest lightening storm on Friday night. Even with all that lightening I still had a hard time getting a picture of it. : P
Till next time...
P.S. Sorry the pictures are so big. I'll try to fix that later.
