March 2010 (Sorry It's Been A While)



We have been so busy, we can barely keep up with our blog anymore, but we'll get it. We hope you are all doing well. This is an excerpt from our March newsletter...

It’s hard to believe we have been here for almost 3 months. There are moments when we step back and can’t believe we are here. We are learning so much, and feel so blessed with the privilege of immersing ourselves in God’s Word every day. 

I (Mike) am enjoying classes and am encouraged to find out I am a much better student at 35 than at 16...I don’t know why, but I think it has to do with listening in class and actually doing my homework.!?

I have had many ministry opportunities including an interview with 2 Buddhist monks, conversations with people at the mall and coffee shop, visits to the Milwaukee Rescue Mission, and playing in the chapel worship bands. (*This is not in the newsletter...One thing I'm praying for is to have more boldness, and a natural ability to talk with strangers and just share Christ in a way that doesn't come off rude or socially awkward.) 

Kristi is doing really well in school. I am really proud of her, and have gotten a better understanding of the challenges and hard work that go into being a mom. She is getting used to me being around her all day, and in time, might discover what a blessing that is! Just Kidding! We are really enjoying studying together.

Thanks for praying for us, and please stay in touch. 

~Mike
