Bolivia

Hello Friends,

Travel to and in Bolivia is always an adventure and this trip was no different. We were delayed more than a day in getting to Sucre by bad weather but God redeemed the time and we accomplished all of our objectives. It was great to travel with Pastor Gaylon Vinson and enjoy our time together.

We had a great time visiting with our people. They are doing a great work and making an impact for Jesus. One church is about 150 and very solid, another is about 150 all youth and children! What a blessing to see these young people seeking to know more about the Lord. I had the privilege to speak to the teenagers.

Another ministry is a daily radio program, an outreach to children and training for children's workers. Such creativity this couple has and they involve their entire family in the radio broadcasts and outreaches.

Thank you for your prayers. We appreciate them very much. My next trip will be to Honduras and Mexico during the first 3 weeks of March.

May you all have a blessed day!

Update on Aaron

Wowzers, it's been so long since anybody has posted on here. Well, the short of things is that all three of us kids are still in school, Mom is volunteering at Carmen's school and the church's food pantry, and Dad is still working at WIM throughout the week.
As for the long of it, since this is Aaron writing, I will update everyone a bit on my life. Since I got back from Asia last summer, God has really been working in new ways in my life. Growing up in missions, I always assumed that the calling I was feeling on my life was to full-time mission work. Now I am not so sure. Needless to say, everyday American life has taken its toll on me, but at the same time, I am not feeling the strong call to full-time as I thought I had then. I continue to seek God's will through it all, and I know foreign missions will indeed be a big part of my life in the future, just maybe not the whole of it. In the meantime, I have been fully involved here in Texas. I am now officially a member of Dayspring Christian Fellowship here in New Braunfels. With that taken care of, I continue with my weekly participation on the worship and media team each Sunday. Youth ministry continues to be my main focus, leading worship for them as well on Wednesday nights and co-leading the Jr. High class with Dad. On Tuesdays, I volunteer at the church food pantry the SILO, and once a month lead worship for God's PowerHouse, the kid's ministry on Sunday. So between that, working at Subway, and a full 18 hour semester of schoolwork, I stay pretty busy. Nonetheless, I still find plenty of time to spend with my wonderful family, sweet girlfriend Kelly, or my crazy friends Vince and Jymmi...

Thanks for reading, and stay tuned for Dad's update about his current trip to Bolivia!!!
