Adapting to a new culture

No, we are not in Germany yet, Sheila and the kids are in Mid-West-America! The girls are getting some practice in what it’s like to adapt to a new culture. Some of the things they have learned are:

• Some fences have pokey wires on them
• Horses will eat carrots out of your hand
• Alpaca’s are very soft
• The produce isle is in your back yard
• Some bugs light up
• Some roads are made out of small rocks
• Mosquito repellant is worth every penny
• English can sound very different in different places in the US
• Some people have no clocks in their house except for the one on the microwave that is blinking the wrong time

They are adapting to the stress of packing up their lives and driving across the US. I think they are so distracted by all the new adventures; they hardly miss a thing, except Daddy. Brian is in CA working on the partnership building phase of our ministry with plans of driving to WA on Wednesday July 8. August 2nd is just around the corner. We trust that the LORD will provide and His timing is perfect.

Our love and prayers to you all.
