Five months and many, many miles

Lawrence and I celebrated our 5-month wedding anniversary on Thursday night by eating supper with our pastor Paul and his wife Janelle. It may seem like small potatoes to celebrate five months, but we waited a long time before God brought us together, and we have not taken even one day for granted.

We spend a lot of hours in the car, and so this past couple of weeks have been a welcome change of pace as we have had the opportunity to house and cat-sit for two dear couples from our church.

The odometer hit 150,000 on Simba as we started our journey today and so we pray that God will give her another 75,000 or so more before we'll have to think of traveling with anyone besides her.

I am so thankful for such good friends and family, who constantly reach out and support both Lawrence and I, and the ministry we are working so hard to provide for. We are lucky to be surrounded by a church family like Woodlawn, and the amazing board of Grassroots Ministries who has labored on behalf of the angels in Tanzania for much longer than I. The state line sign below reads pretty accurately, I would say. Life, is good.
