Some of our first friends in Austin that we met in June. We will remember Sami and Abby in prayer:
Another wonderful friend and encouragement in our faith, Jason. Friends since 1993:
Our life for the past few months has been a trip. Thankfully, we always packed light. ;-)
Ella's a triune citizen: of U.S.A., Australia, and Heaven:
Our mission coach, Amos Allen, and his wife, Anne, a mentor:
Shipping our belongings and attachments and accoutrements to Australia, with Ella showing the actual size during tummy time:
Ms. Toni teaching Ella who made the fish:
Mark and Cindy Oswald are some of our most righteous supporters. Mark let me join him in home remodeling work while we lived in Austin. The work he gave me let us "live a little" and also let me see how to work like a Christian. And Cindy demonstrates how to be nice. ;-) Cindy grew up in the same small town in Oklahoma that my dad did, Velma Alma:
Wonderful friends of ours, Ken, Patty, and Alex Kohl! We knew they liked us because they've always given us a hard time. As you can see, Ella punched Alex in the face. He's fine now, though. I think Ella's shaping up to be my million dollar baby (that is, a boxing success):
Our wonderful teammates and friends! The Griffiths are still awaiting their permanent residents visa, so they can't come to Australia yet, but we and the Mullinses are flying on tomorrow. We'll stay in touch through e-mail and video conferencing and of course we will gather 'round the throne together in prayer:
