Home in Gloryland
I've got a home in Gloryland that outshines the sun!
A big thank you to all who have been praying with us through this trial. Your notes have meant so very much to us. Two weeks ago, Paul's dad was admitted to the hospital for bleeding ulcers. Unfortunately though, his body has declined rapidly since then and he has grown very weak. Paul's brother, Joel, called this morning to let us know that Oma is ready for Paul to fly home. From all appearances, Opa will be moving on to his home in Gloryland very soon. Paul will be flying out for Newton, Iowa, on the first available flight. As I type this, he is on the phone with American Airlines trying to make the arrangements necessary for purchase of a breavement ticket. Paul will be flying alone this time.
Please pray for our family, the church in Newton, Iowa, and the church here in Wittenberg, Germany. Newton Baptist Temple is in need of a new pastor to walk with them through this transition. Paul's dad started the church there 42 years ago. The church here in Germany will be left for an unknown period of time without a preacher for Sunday Services.
Thank you for your prayers and support!
