September 1 Special Update From Budapest, Hungary and Tirana, Albania

      One of the key highlights or this trip will be interviewed on TV and Radio in Albania. They told me the interview would be about our history as missionaries and what it’s like to be a missionary in the year 2025. This will be aired throughout Albania and parts of Macedonia. It will be dubbed into Albanian.

      It’s always exciting to be in Albania as it’s 66% Muslim. With your help we have been able to help start multiple churches (maybe 15) in Albania.  We will continue to help start more possibly later this year and next year. We invest at least $4000 to help start these new churches. Can you possibly help with one?

      Special Family News Update . . . It’s been wonderful to see our kids and especially grand-kids multiple times this year.  You that have grand kids living in other states know what this means.  Our son Nathan and his family were able to visit us here in Florida this summer and later this month Brenda will be able to visit our youngest Daughter and family. They recently moved from Colorado to just north of Charlotte.

      Sometimes people ask us about our heath and how we are doing. Especially after living in so many places’ overseas and traveling so much.  So kind of them.  Brenda is eternally young and very rarely has any health issues. I sometimes have a few aches and pains, but I am in overall great health.

      We continue to absolutely love doing what we do and have no plans to retire soon. But we will be wise and slow down and take care of ourselves. Our health is always a priority and we never take it for granted.

PS.  Thank you for all your prayers.  We are in our 43rd year as missionaries and we could never do this without so many praying and supporting us, either monthly or with special gifts throughout the year. Thank you for helping us do what we do.
