Well we had a wonderful time at Lela's folks house for Christmas. We are on our way home, actually we took a lunch stop at Panera Bread in Gastonia, North Carolina. We worshipped with family and friends at The Family Worship Center in Kings Mountain this morning.
Yesterday we went to the Billy Graham Library in Charlotte, North Carolina. What a cool experience to see the life of a man who stayed the course and preached the simple message of the gospel throughout his life! He is 90 years old now.
We are on our way home and looking forward to chillin with our family. Scott got Flight Simulator X for Christmas and just has to try it out!!!!!!
Just over two weeks away from leaving the lower 48 and heading North to Alaska!!!!! Which reminds me, I got the movie "North to Alaska" with The Duke for Christmas!! We will have to watch that too!!
We trust that all of you had a wonderful time with family as you celebrated that most precious gift! We hope that you all will have a Jesus filled New Year. One of being servants to all. And loving the lowly!
Oh...My class in Manitoba was Awesome!!!! It was a heavy maintenance class on the PT-6. (Pratt and Whitney jet engine with a prop, also known as a Turboprop engine). These engines are used heavily in Missionary aviation around the world and with the shortage and expense of Avgas, we will be seeing more aircraft using these engines, like the Kodiak.
Lela had an appointment with a wonderful Doctor and friend in Coshocton for her ankle before we left. He said that she had damaged two tendons heavily and one slightly. He hooked her up with a new brace and shoe supports. He said that it is healing and will take a while, but she is on the mend. If only we could just take the bad parts out and put new parts in like an airplane......
Stomach flu's are going through the family!! Yippee!!!!! So as we take off for the rest of the journey home....well....you get the picture!!!! PLEASE PRAY FOR US!!!!!!
Love you all!!
