I guess I could have thought of a better title, but this one seems to work...
The reunion, as usual went very well... We certainly miss Uncle Clell and Uncle Bill, but we know they were with God and watching over us. Aunt Corsie was in our prayers as she wasn't able to make it this year due to her health (Bill Martin stayed close to her in Whitesburg)
It was awsome to see everyone else... The kids continue to grow up, the "Cousins" are still a team, and cotinue to "grow Up" as well. Congrats to Lisa & Richard on their engagement and to Sheila on the new addition to her family...
My cousins, aunts and uncles have ALWAYS been an important part of my life, and I certainly miss seeing them, and wish we had the opportunity to see each other more often...
The one thing that I do miss is Uncle Carroll's family. While he left us many years ago at the hands of a murderer with a grudge, he and his family are still in our prayers. Mostly, I miss Larry and Susan not being part of "The Cousins". They are still part of all of our lives, even if we don't see them anymore. God commands us to Forgive... There is nothing that should hold family apart, and its a shame that we have been "separated".
The other half of Uncle Carroll's family (his & his 2nd wife's children) are strangers to alot of us. But they are still family and are in our thoughts and prayers, even though we may never have even met!
Someday I hope we can all "Forgive" and reunite...
Well, Jennifer, Shelby and I along with Jake (and with Savana - Scott & Mindy's daughter) are planning a trip to Florida to meet up with Nick (and his fiance Rose) who is coming back to the United States on leave from the US Marines, where he is stationed in Iraq.
The cost of such a trip is OUTRAGIOUS! Disney want $350 - $1500 per NIGHT for on property hotel rooms...
We had no idea how we were going to afford this... Looks like God has helped AGAIN....
Will let you know how that turns out in Summer Part 3 (haha)

Summer
Well...(Deep sigh)
Alot is going on...Health, Heat, Fun, Friends & Family, Finances, Missions, Learning, God...
This is June 27th and we have only been in "Summer" for 6 days now...
Wow, what a start...
Health:
Shelby's Insurance cancels on July1st, so we are scrambling to get her new insurance... Kentucky has been paying for all her insurance up to now, but has decided we do not qualify anymore, so we now have to pay for her insurance which makes an 80/20 policy for the 3 of us nearly $900 a month... WOW!
Our parents are all struggling... Jenn's dad has knee and heart problems, he mom has several problems we don't want to discuss including diverticulitis.
Ron's mom is having dental problems and is loosing her sight (in at least one eye). Ron's dad has spinal problems, heart, blood pressure and diabetes problems. (Surgery is on the near horizon)
We are very concerned about all of them and don't want anything to happen, but they all know the Lord and we know where we will meet again should anything happen.
Heat:
We broke down and put a couple of window AC units in... It has been getting in the 90's with high humidity. Ron's work only has one room with AC, so it is starting out to be quite a hot summer... (Standing in the freezer department at Krogers is a huge treat)
Fun:
Along with the heat, a small portable pool was a necessity... Shelby and Savanna (Our friend's daughter who is spending the summer with us) are LOVING it! Even when we first filled it with COLD water, they couldn't wait to get in - over & over again... (Jenn & I are still waiting for the water to warm a little)
Friends:
Mindy & Scott brought Savanna for her yearly visit and she will spend a month or 2 with us... We wish Mindy & Scott could have stayed for a while, but Scott's work and Mindy's school required them to be back in Akron quickly.
Mike, Jean, Brian & Devon are still holding out in Panama... We pray for them all the time as they are going through "humbling" times. We all seem to be being "tested" lately and are definitely aware of Satan's presence in our everyday world. Hopefully we will soon be able to go forward with God's plan and work (see Missions)
Brad & Pat are going through quite a bit with personal issues and threats. We pray for their safety and for calmness in their lives - for God's grace to cover them and help them through their trials and tribulations.
Al Savage, our friend and landlord, continues to teach us humility, gardening, about life and about God. We pray for his continued teaching to everyone he touches and for his friendship.
Ernie Perry is teaching me how to pray... One of my deficits in my Spiritual Gifts... He can pray anytime, anywhere - even on the phone - for someone...
Many other friends and family have important things going on in their lives- we are concerned with each and every one and pray for them. We even pray for those who hurt us - we are ALL God's children.
Family:
Nick is a United States of America Marine and stationed in Iraq. We have been asked not to say anything further for security reasons. We do pray CONSTANTLY for his safety and the safety of all of our armed forces protecting us daily. It is a double edged sword....we are so proud, but we fear for his safety! Like the war or not... they are still our secular protectors. PLEASE pray for Nick and all of our soldiers!
Jake graduated High School and is preparing for college. He is working 3 jobs to try and pay for his education as we cannot help much with his schooling (see finances). He will go the Michigan State and gear towards Sports Medicine (at least for now) and prepare for work for God! Pray for Jake's finances and goals, and his walk with God. He is an awesome man of God, a growing Christian and a proud son...
Shelby is 6 going on 16 and has "graduated" Kindergarten. She can read , write and even multiply... WOW! She is having a blast going to YMCA camp with Jennifer and having Savanna with us for the summer.
Jennifer is working hard for the YMCA as as "Off_Site" Director for the Y-Care program. Trying hard to keep up with us is a full time job all in itself, and now she is working almost 2 full time jobs.
Jenn, Shelby, Savanna & I are headed to a family reunion this weekend and will see family who we mostly see only once a year. This is not right, but it is a fact in the secular world we live in. None of us make enough time for our families. I particularly pray for my Aunt Jean and Aunt Corsey - both who have lost their husbands (my uncles) in the last year or so. Both are not in the best of health and struggle with the challenges of age daily.
My dad's side of the family have become strangers to Jenn & Shelby as we have not taken the time to visit West Virginia... Again, we need to ALL work on staying closer to our families.
My sister Laura is wonderful - a good friend to Jennifer and a wonderful Aunt to Shelby. We pray for her personally life and that she stays close to God in her walk!
We pray for Jennifer's brother and his family. We have had our differences in the past but they are still family and we love them very much. We pray for forgiveness and healing in this relationship and hope that someday we can break bread together again.
Finances:
Well, for those of you who know us, we have been struggling with our finances for years. Certain things happened to make them worse, and then we found ourselves "Humbled" by God. "Stuff" is not that important anymore...
Old medical bills, and previous expenditures have caught up with us and we are praying about what to do... We have found expenses exceeding income but are still resolved to continue our work for God... As always, prayers are welcomed for enlightenment...
Missions:
On The Wings Of Doves remains intact - poised for growth with several "tentative" commitments... We are still looking for sources of operating income from God and His people.
See "OnTheWingsOfDoves.com"
Leap Of Faith Farms continues to grow slowly and there are several potential avenues for tremendous growth. (see "LeapOfFaithFarms.net)
For His Own has fed many families through the holidays, and has planted "The Safe House" - a church for "at-risk" kids. we are on "vacation" during the summer, but pray that we will be able to continue God's work with these kids.
Southland's Ironman Mentoring program is growing slowly. (I was recently asked to take over as coordinator of the program) Summer is a hard time to get a program like this running on a consistent basis, but hopefully the Mentors will be able to reach and teach the Mentees and grow them closer to God!
Ichthus just finished their 2007 concert. Jenn and I were privileged to work there this year. Tens of Thousands of people attended, praised and worshiped God... What a wonderful experience far anyone!
Habitat For Humanity continues to grow in Jessamine county. Brad and I have been proud to help in its growth. Exceeding the goals set forth for the ReStore by tremendous numbers. Having two builds scheduled for this year and 1 rehab... 2 partners are already selected and another should be selected before the end of this years projects. We are currently working on expanding the Restore from 7000 sq ft to either 12,000 sq ft or 19,000 sq ft.
Our friends Rhoda and Armstong Cheggah from Kenya continue to educate themselves and their children in God's word, continue to educate God's people throughout the US and continue to birth churches and pastors throughout Kenya.
Learning:
Learning is a constant thing. Jennifer has undertaken a management position with the YMCA and I am contemplating additional coursework or even a Master's degree in Christian Counseling or Missions. Each day we learn more about God, more about the secular world, and more about how the two will collide.
GOD:
This is a BIG one... GOD works in our lives every day! Sometimes we listen, sometimes we don't! Our goal is to learn to listen ALL THE TIME! We MUST put on the Armor of God everyday. We must learn to pray EVERYDAY about EVERYTHING!
We will constantly learn and will never know it all... sometimes it is a bit unsettling not to be able to reach the "conclusion" (at least on earth) . But we will eventually, with our belief in Jesus Christ as our Savior.
Summer Continues and I will try to keep up with this blog better...
If you can help let me know....
We appreciates all your prayers!

A House?
There is this piece of land down the road... 5 acres for $300,000 ... This huge 8,000 sq ft house could sit on the pretty piece of land overlooking the rolling hills and green grass... Marble floors in the entry, with a huge vaulted ceiling - a fancy dining rom, a huge greatroom with a glass fireplace & built in mahogany bookcases, a home theater room with a built in 103" flat screen TV and surround sound system... 6 huge bedrooms - each has its own bathroom - 3 have jacuzzi tubs, and the other 3 have shower massagers...
4 fireplaces throughout...
A rec room with a pool table and 3 pinball machines plus electronic darts... A den/office with double french doors to close off the rest of the house...
A kitchen with heated ceramic tile - a built in island that seats 8, sub zero refrigerator, Jenn-Aire gril/stove/oven combo - dishwasher - and on and on....
Outside: a built-in swimming pool with a waterfall and slide a 12 person jacuzzi... A built in bar-b-que grill area and wet bar- an outdoor "open air" fireplace... a tennis court on the back side...
a 4 car garage with extra workshop area...
Want it???
Its a HOUSE! ... NOT a HOME!
What is a home?
First... a home starts with a family...the people in it...
If you have a roof over your head (whether it leaks or not) you are a minority in the world...
Beds? A very lucky luxury... Running water? Plumbing? Wow....
Electricity? wow! Heat? Air Conditioning? Only the RICH people of the world have such things...
A home is a gathering of people who care for each other, who share their lives together, who love each other and help each other through daily chores... They are there to help with trials and tribulations....
Love and Life are MUCH more valuable than the big HOUSE... Love and Life with your family is a HOME!
As For Me and My Home, We Will Serve The Lord!

RED FRIDAYS
I heard about a person who was in Atlanta , Georgia attending a conference. While they were in the airport, returning home, they heard several people behind them beginning to clap and cheer. This person immediately turned around and witnessed one of the greatest act's of patriotism they had ever seen.
Moving through the terminal was a group of soldiers in their camo's. As they began heading to their gate everyone (well almost everyone) was abruptly on their feet with their hands waving and cheering. When they saw the soldiers, probably 30-40 of them, being applauded and cheered for it hit this person......
Moving through the terminal was a group of soldiers in their camo's. As they began heading to their gate everyone (well almost everyone) was abruptly on their feet with their hands waving and cheering. When they saw the soldiers, probably 30-40 of them, being applauded and cheered for it hit this person......
"I'm not alone. I'm not the only red-blooded American who still loves this country and supports our troops and their families."
Of course they immediately stopped and began clapping for these young, unsung heroes who are putting their lives on the line everyday for us so we can go to school, work and home without fear or reprisal.
Just when they thought they could not be more proud of our country or of our service men and women a young girl, not more than 6 or 7 years old, ran up to one of the male soldiers. He kneeled down and said "Hi." The little girl then asked him if he would give something to her daddy for her. The young soldier, who didn't look any older than maybe 22 himself, said he would try; and what did she want to give to her daddy. Then suddenly the little girl grabbed the neck of this soldier, gave him the biggest hug she could muster and then kissed him on the cheek.
The mother of the little girl, who said her daughter's name was Courtney, told the young soldier that her husband was a Marine and had been in Iraq for 11 months now As the mom was explaining how much her daughter, Courtney, missed her father, the young soldier began to tear up. When this temporarily single mom was done explaining her situation, all of the soldiers huddled together for a brief second. Then one of the other servicemen pulled out a military-looking walkie-talkie. They started playing with the device and talking back and forth on it. After about 10-15 seconds of this, the young soldier walked back over to Courtney, bent down and said this to her. "I spoke to your daddy and he told me to give this to you." Then he hugged this little girl that he had just met, and gave her a kiss on the cheek. He finished by saying, "Your daddy told me to tell you that he loves you more than anything, and he is coming home soon." The mom at this point was crying almost uncontrollably, and, as the young soldier stood to his feet, he saluted Courtney and her mom. This person was standing no more than six feet away when this entire event unfolded. As the soldiers began to leave, heading towards their gate, people resumed their applause. As they stood there applauding they looked around. There were very few dry eyes, including their own. That young soldier, in one last act of selflessness, turned around and blew a kiss to Courtney with a tear rolling down his cheek.
We need to remember every day all of our soldiers and their families, and thank God for them and their sacrifices. At the end of the day, it's good to be an American.
RED FRIDAYS.......Very soon, you will see a great many people wearing RED every Friday. The reason? Americans who support our troops used to be called "the silent majority." We are no longer silent, and are voicing our love of GOD and COUNTRY and HOME in record-breaking numbers.
We are not organized, boisterous or over-bearing. We get no liberal media coverage on TV to reflect our message or our opinions. Many Americans like you, me and all our friends simply want to recognize that the vast majority of Americans support our troops. Our idea of showing solidarity and support for our troops with dignity and respect STARTS FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 16th AND CONTINUES EVERY FRIDAY until the troops all come home, sending a deafening message that: EVERY RED-BLOODED AMERICAN SUPPORTS OUR MEN AND WOMEN IN THE MILITARY and will wear red.
By word of mouth, in the press, on TV -- let's make the United States on every Friday a SEA OF RED , much like a homecoming football game in the bleachers. If every one of us who loves this country will share this email with acquaintances, co-workers, friends, and family, it will not be long before the USA is covered in RED and it will let our troops know the once "silent majority" is on their side more than ever.....certainly more than the media lets on.
The first thing a soldier says when asked "What can we do to make things better for you?" is...We need your support and your prayers.
Let's get the word out and lead with class and dignity, by example; and wear something red every Friday.
WE LIVE IN THE LAND OF THE FREE, ONLY BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE.
THEIR BLOOD RUNS RED......SO WEAR RED!! MAY GOD HELP AMERICA TO BECOME ONE NATION, UNDER GOD.
MAY GOD BLESS YOU; AND HAVE A GREAT DAY.
If this doesn't get your attention, nothing will!
