You be sure and pack those cups in with your "Frosty" when you come home. Sorry to slow in responding but this is Christmas and not the best time for GG to be ill. So glad that I could be there for her. Love, Moma; December 9, 2012 at 5:26 PM

Mission's UpDate!

Dec. 18th, 2015 found us coming back to the U.S.A. from South America, but to continue working as full-time missionaries with our mission.
With our Children's age, we have been planning for years to come back at this time.
We remain under appointment with Global Holiness Mission to continue serving Colombia and Argentina.
We will be making trips to teach, preach, and disciple the nationals on the fields.
Now that we are serving our people with missions trips from out of the States, we will also be ministering via digital and written ministry in Spanish and English for those that are on the field. We so appreciate all of y'all's prayers for us! None of this would be possible if it weren't for a team effort of you and others like you. God has been doing great things, let's ask and expect more from Him!
