Update, Update!!!

Been a while since our last update, and a lot has happened…

After being in San Antonio for nine days, we took off for Rwanda for our second trip to the heart of Africa. The trip was very different from our last one for several different reasons. The most obvious was that we were in a refugee camp last trip, and this time we were in a village. We went with E3 Partners to the Eastern Province of Gahini. The Eastern side of the country is just as beautiful as the Western side. Overall the beauty of Rwanda is unmatched in our traveling experiences.

Our Ministry partners (native Rwandans) informed us that the region we were visiting had “hard hearts” compared to the rest of the country. Their warnings were very true, as we spent more time with fewer people than last year. You might expect this in most places, but in Rwanda most people are very agreeable. The challenged us as we presented the Gospel, and it a weird way I found it reassuring. I think I found it that way, because there questions verified that they were paying close attention to the message we brought.

In short, the trip was great, and many people heard the Gospel. We will write more about the trip later. We are adjusting to San Antonio well, since our return. DeeDee has been to two job interviews at Oak Hills (Max Lucado’s church), and is hopeful that she will get the job. She also interviewed at a pregnant girls home, Seton Home.

We have spent a lot of time looking for a house since we returned. We found a great neighborhood, but it is a bit more than we had hoped to spend, so we will see what happens.

We went to an amazing Steak house called the Grey Moss Inn for our two year anniversary, on Saturday night. In was in the beautiful hill country town of Helotes.

Its hot here!

Over and Out.

P.S. DeeDee will post pictures as soon as she stops being lazy!!!
