Dear friends and fellow laborers,
     Greetings and happy Independence Day! We're sure thankful to God for being born in the USA, despite our political and moral failings. It's even better to be born again and get a second birthday, and God has no flaws or failures!
     During June we had meetings in Pennsylvania and New York, allowing us to park near our home church and spend some time with our friends and family here. We also celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary June 21st, and we got to get away overnight and go walk Watkins Glen too! That was a fun little trip! We also made good progress with financial support this month, with 3 new supporting churches getting on board! This puts us very close to the 50 percent mark! We thank the Lord for providing us with more financial and prayer partners. We also got the RV its annual safety inspection, and it passed just fine, which is a blessing. It has been nice to be relatively free of vehicle troubles for a while!
     In the middle of July we head south for meetings in Virginia, Tennessee, and Texas. Over the next couple of months, we will be looping back through the mid-East states before going back to the Midwest. We are well booked through September/October, and are currently working to fill in the rest of the fall and winter in Texas and other southern states, since Northeast winter is not good for the RV.
     Please continue to pray for us: for safety in travel, that the Lord will enable us to get more meetings scheduled, and that some of the churches where we have presented the ministry will be able to partner with us. Also please pray for our family, as we had a couple of injuries. Our little Jay stuck his fingers in a treadmill, which is so far healing well. Then Christa's brother suffered a head injury last week, which is still causing some trouble and being evaluated. Thank you all for your continued prayer and financial support, without which we would not be moving forward.
