We didn't really run a marathon, but it sure feels like it! The past month has been a whirlwind of meetings and traveling from state to state. We were in twelve churches during the month of October. Four of these meetings were mission conferences, running twelve nights back to back. We had a wonderful time meeting many different people and getting reacquainted with many old friends!
We were unable to make it to one Sunday evening meeting because our car broke down, again! We praise the Lord that it would not start when we got it to the mechanic so he could actually see what was happening. There was a break in a wire between the starter and the ignition. The wonderful people at Temple Baptist Church in Muncie, IN took excellent care of us while we were stranded.
I am a little behind on posting, so here are some pics from September:

| We stayed with Ms. Seka, who is the church pianist in Eaton Rapids. She has such a wonderful heart for the Lord and such a sweet spirit! |
Please pray for our safety as we are traveling. November will be another busy month, with the added blessing of Thanksgiving in Missouri with Jonathan's family! We are looking forward to being in several churches close to his home. Jonathan has not been home since Christmas of 2008 and has not been home for Thanksgiving since before college!! This will be a special time for us and his family.
