Hello from Taylorsville

We are back online now!! We just got our computer this week. We have completed our mission work in Northern Ireland and we are back in NC now. We enjoyed our 12 years there and thank the Lord for the open doors we had there. We know the Lord will guide us in His will in the days ahead. We thank the Lord for Bro. Mark and Bro. Stan and their churches. Please keep them in your prayers.

We are living in Taylorsville, it is where my husband is from. We are living in a house that my husband's parents own. It has 3 bedrooms and a very big yard in the back. We have met our neighbors.

The girls are doing well on their school and they are looking forward to the summer break. Lydia has been playing the piano at church while our pastor's wife has been sick. Allen has been preaching at several churches in the area. Allen has been giving out alot of Spanish tracts. He also got to talk to some Mormons on Thursday.

Well better go for now and I will leave with a poem I have read recently.

----

My hand in God's.

-

Each morning when I wake I say,

"I place my hand in God's today";

I know He will walk close by my side

My every wandering step to guide.

He leads me with the tenderest care

When paths are dark and I despair-

No need for me to understand

If I but hold fast to His hand.

My hand in His! No surer way

To walk in safety through each day.

By His great bounty I am fed:

Warmed by His love, and comforted.

When at day's end I seek my rest

And realize how much I'm blessed,

My thanks pour out to Him; and then

I place my hand in God's again.
