We had a refreshing rain storm for the past two days. God spared us the hail and tornados. I still love hearing the thunder roll across the sky at night.
Keri called and told us the good news. After 3 years of seminary, a year of application, and several tests, Keri and Kevin have been accepted as career missionaries for the So. Baptist IMB. They will be commissioned in Rogers, Arkansas the middle of May. Since they have to attend meetings the week before, Bill and I will meet them in Branson (on their way from Chicago) and take care of the kids (Sofia (7), Selah (5) and Isaiah (3). We were able to get reservations at the Welk Resort with our timeshare for $35 per night. God is good!! We will all go to Rogers for the commissioning at Cross Church . Kirk, Tamra and Ezekiel are flying in also. We are excited to see them again!
I took Mom to the doctor this morning for a check-up. She's doing great! In fact, she named all of her medications and what the dosage is. Dr. Shaw ask her if she is really 89 years old. She proudly told him she will be 90 in August.
Bill is teaching today at Shawnee High School. I will be going to St. Anthony's in a few minutes for a computer seminar. The computers are changing, and we have to document our chaplain visits on a new program.
We continue going to the Senior Center for lunch when we can. Mom, Noel and Janice go as well. The meals are delicious, and it's fun to play BINGO. However, Noel always wins, so we have threatened to not let him play. It will be even more fun when Galen and Sondra move here this summer. Competition will really heat up then!
I gotta get to the seminar, but will try to put more pictures on later. Spring is just around the corner and I'm looking forward to gardening and all the activities coming up. I want to stay well so that I can bless God! In our world, Christians must stay strong and firm.
