This is such a favorite time of year for us. The coolness of spring giving way to the early days of summer. Picnics and weddings and family gatherings. We have been especially blessed to have Josiah come and spend Memorial Day weekend with us, helping us to celebrate our 30th anniversary!! Complete with a good Hungarian bacon roast with the family, we were so thankful to the Lord for these 30 years of life, love and ministry. So thankful that after these 3 decades we can look each other in the eye, and say, truthfully, ‘I love you more today than yesterday.’

We have also been blessed to have more important times with our family, spiritual sons and daughters here in Pennsylvania, via the ministry of Son Burn and the School of Passion. God is pouring out His Spirit on all flesh and our sons and daughters are prophesying! As we gear up in preparations for another extended trip to Asia, we are blessed that in this season of our lives, we are able to be among earthly family as well. I know our elderly parents are happy for it, as well. Dan’s mom is 84, and my dear mother turns 87 this month. She is amazing and can still run circles around the rest of us!! And she still tells some of the funniest stories of anyone I know! We are blessed to be in this season of our lives, surrounded by family and both earthly and spiritual. God is so good!
