On The Road: Week 1

Greetings from Mifflinburg, PA. 
This time last week we were on the road to Lancaster, PA to represent Global Outreach Mission at Lancaster Bible College's missions conference. Global was one of forty mission agencies represented at LBC's annual missions week Feb. 15-19.

Here I am after assembling our display the day of the conference.

The conference went well and the Lord arranged 12 solid contacts with missions-minded students. I look forward to following up with these young men & women as they continue to seek the Lord's will for their life of service.

We were also blessed to reunite with Herb & Rose (dear missionary friends of ours from MMS days) and Sheldon & Jan's, and Jake & Ruth Ann's Life Groups from our supporting church in Lancaster!

Thank you to Steve & Cindy (Karen's brother and sister-in-law) for hosting us in their home over the course of the conference.

Yesterday, after the conference, we drove the additional two hours north to Mifflingburg, where we're currently staying with Dave & April (Karen's other brother and sister-in-law). This morning we were blessed to share and reconnect with our supporting church in Lewisburg, PA. It was fun to be back with our brothers & sisters at "The Church On The River"! They've been part of our ministry for twelve years now.

To Buffalo & Beyond!
We're keeping our eyes on the weather as we continue our journey northward on Tuesday. Lord willing, we'll make it into Buffalo, NY ahead of the next winter storm. We're excited to have a day set aside to meet with all our friends at Global HQ Wednesday and then cross the border into Canada Thursday to prepare for our next Candidate Orientation Class which begins Sunday.

We'll have more updates and photos for you soon. Thanks for praying for us, watching the weather with us, and joining us on this journey.
