update

Hello From India!!



The biggest news item right now is that Jesse won gold internationally!!!

The Base here has a TaeKwonDo (TKD) ministry that Jesse has been able to participate in since coming. This has been really good for him as there are not really children in the area that he can just go and play with. He has done amazing with going along with Ned and/or I and participating with us in ministry. So TKD has been a great outlet for "pent-up" energy. He was invited to participate in the District Competition on Sunday. His attitude about competing was: "not all kids get to fight in another country". He did really well and won the gold medal. It was so funny because at the first match the attention all turned to the mat he was sparring on and you could hear the words "international match" going thru the crowd. It was the same for the final round. It was so neat for the club here as they really use this as a ministry to give the glory to Jesus. All the kids knew Jesse's name by the end of the day and would call his name and wave. Jesse would just wave and was pretty clueless about all the attention which just made it even sweeter. The club here has two participants going on to the state competition and then can try for Nationals.



Hannah has been mistaken again for a 15 or 16 year old because she has gotten so tall. She is so funny about this. It just cracks her up because she does not see herself as older at all!



Sammi is enjoying the campus ministry that we are doing now. She loves talking to new people and just praying for them.



We as a family will visit a cell group that a Brother has at his home on Friday night. We are very excited about this and he is too.



Saturday morning we got up early and visiting Monkey Park. We saw peacocks and a big snake along with lots of monkeys.



The temperature has now gotten up to 117!!! It stormed this evening but it is not good to be out in it although some played in it. Their eyes were burning also when they were done. Then it hailed!! Now it is hot and muggy!! JAYMASEEKI!! (Praise the Lord:)



We are doing well and enjoying seeing God work through us and our team. We have met a lot of Christian Indians who were saved due to missionaries years ago coming to their villages and tribes. It is neat to encourage them. We have seen a lot of salvations also!



Blessings and love to you all!
