Last week was our Re-Entry/Renewal time. This week is our Homeland Ministry Assignment workshop- learning how to cultivate solid champions of missions this year! After that we will stay in three homes in one week, and then we have two back to back Camp Meetings (Cherry Run Camp Meeting, PA and Portsmouth Camp Meeting in RI). We'll get back home August 9!
It's fun being on the road as a family. We laugh about silly things no one else gets. We create rituals and traditions that are exclusively ours. We are shaping our family culture. And I love it! Our life as missionaries is very nomadic- and so we must learn how to be a family no matter where we are.
I want to make sure that gratitude is part of our family culture. And so we list and we count, and we whisper thanks as we tuck boys in
