SUNDAY 19TH. FARM NOOS





Some week end noos...

Hello,

It is presently -1° and quiet and gray.  All of yesterday and all of last night, a cold wind howled.  It was an especially dreadful wind for the guys that had work to do outside.

We’ve had a busy week due to convention preparations that were put on hold for a week or so.  Food is being cooked and prepared, the tab is being cleaned, roads are being “scraped” but now they will have to be done again, homes are being cleaned.  Everyone is in a sorta controlled frenzy. 

Whitestone’s convention started yesterday.  I haven’t heard any reports but I heard that Wasilla’s and Sapa’s conventions were great.  Mark Coy took over some people yesterday to the Whitestone convention – Seth, May, Claire Wilkerson, Kerri, and Maddie.  Seth and May are staying for the whole convention.  Since Amaris flew in from Boston a day or so ago, might be part of Seth’s anxiety to attend that convention.  (He’s not really anxious, just …. You know)

Garth was gone for a week helping to chauffer the Ministry.  He arrived home on Friday night in time for our tab cleaning party.

I did want to mention that Donna and Dave Austin were recently visiting Whitestone.  They made time to come over here to visit and perform a small concert for us. I was looking for some links to share with you all, but I need to get going to service this morning so I’d better not look too hard.

Katie Crossin has arrived.  She is very refreshingly excited to be here.  Her mom, Jeannie, Andy’s sister, is here for a week. Katie will be living with Sis. Wenda Lawrence.

Seth Jepsen is back from Mexico. Not sure if he speaks any spanish or not...haha

Pat and self took Rob snowshoeing into the woods. It was windy but nice. The snow covering makes the trail smoother than it has been. The spring has been overflowing alot and getting onto the trail so it has been difficult to get out to ski and snowshoe, hoping the covering will last and the temp. will continue to stay where they are and not get unseasonably warm...




We are still searching out the reason for Rob's weight loss and high thyroid readings. Keep us in your prayers when you think of us. Keeping a balance between all his meds and supplements is always a challenge.

Well, I’d like to chat, but I better get moving.  We are doing well, Trotters and Masons are doing amazingly well.  We had a sweet sharing service on Wednesday where others that didn’t have time to share at the memorial were able to share.  Sarah Jane shared that she realized through this time that theChrist is very much alive in His people. 

Anyway, have a great week!  




A lovely musical evening with Dick & Donna Austin from Hoonah Alaska
