It was a very special privilege to be able to visit Tanzania with Patti and see the work with the Maasai tribe and experience the beauty and grandeur of East Africa. However, I must admit that it is great to home! It was truly a blessing to be back with my church family yesterday and I was completely blown away with the surprise announcement that we had exceeded our Lottie Moon goal with a total of more than $105,000. It was also a joy to feel the enthusiasm last night as we gathered to welcome Jon and Kim Durham to our ministry staff.
Today is my birthday. For those of you who are afraid to ask, I am now 49 years old. They say that you are as old as you feel and I hope it's not true because after two weeks of being in another time zone and then sitting more than 30 hours on an airplane, I'm feeling pretty old right this minute. Usually though, I don't feel a day older than 48! I am looking forward to another great year even though my next birthday is a big one.
Again, I want to thank all of you who followed this blog and supported us while in Africa with your prayers and comments. It was good to know that while we were separated by thousands of miles, we were still one in spirit.
Be blessed.
