Ordination

Last November I had the opportunity to be ordained at our home church in Wichita, Kansas.
It was truly a life changing experience and an event that I will never forget.
Here are a few pictures that were taken. Our family to the right.
Below is us with Dr. David Gibbs. Dr. Gibbs is the founder and President of the Christian Law Association. Also one with our Pastor, and then a picture of the ordination council who were able to ask me questions of whatever they wanted.

Flat Max

Meet Flat Max. Flat Max is a representative from the second grade Sunday School class at Messiah Baptist Church. They decided that since they were not able to come with us on deputation, they would send their representative with us. As you can see here he is driving while Cris and I sleep. He does a wonderful job helping out. A few weeks ago, I was sick and not able to preach, so he took care of that as well.

We are excited that Max is willing to help us for the cause of Christ.

New Life Fellowship Baptist Church


This is Pastor Eddie and his wife. He has been the pastor of this great little church outside of Orlando for a few years now. The church is growing and they have a small missions program that they are looking to grow. We were able to encourage the people in their involvement with missions this past February. They are hoping to be able to take us on for support soon, and in the mean time they are dedicated to being our prayer supporters. We are so grateful to have this great church as part of our support ministry and God will bless them for their involvement in reaching the people of Mexico with the Gospel of Christ.

Fort Walton Beach





Hello from Fort Walton Beach! Now before you judge, let me explain. We are between meetings right now and needed a place to stay. Crystal was able to find an organization on the internet that organizes free missionary housing around the nation. We were able to find a couple that had a guest house here in Ft Walton Beach! It's very nice to have our own place to stay for a few days between meetings and be able to get some work done at the same time.

Yesterday, Cris and I spent the day in the soaking up some rays! It was very nice to relax, listen to the rushing water, read a book, and forget about most everything. As you can see the water is beautiful and clear, however COLD. It was nice for the feet but that's all.
Speaking of feet, I bet you can't tell whos are whos!

We are grateful that the Lord has allowed us to spend this time here. We have really needed it. Mostly because we had much work that needed to be done, and simply to much distraction to get it done elsewhere.
