A Trip to the USA---7 churches and a graduation!

"Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord . . . . Psalm 127:3"


At this writing we are beginning our last of 6 weeks in the USA. We arrived here on April 8 to be a part of a 4 day missions conference in Georgia and also report to 6 other supporting churches. We traveled to South Carolina after being at the first church in order to have 5 days with our three daughters, our son-in-law and our two grandchildren.
We had a lovely afternoon to get some family photos taken during the brief visit that our youngest daughter, Emily(below), was in SC during a break from her studies at Northland International University.
Below are three generations of ladies: Amy, Noelle and me.
.
We shared some happy hours with our son-in-law,Rob, and our grandson, Jake.
Our middle daughter, Clare, completed a grueling 3 1/2 years of study to obtain her second bachelor of science degree from Bob Jones University. We thank the Lord for allowing us to attend her nurse's pinning ceremony on May 7th
and her graduation on May 8.
While in Greenville, we were also able to visit the two young ladies from South Africa who were able to come to the USA to study at Bob Jones University. We were so pleased that Rachel and Judith took time out of their busy schedules to visit with us.
We are very thankful for the Lord's enabling Rachel to complete her Master's of Music in Flute Performance during only one academic year. May the Lord be glorified in her life and use her greatly.
