Last weekend we had the opportunity to minister at the Building Up Men Conference at Gold Country Baptist Church in Shingle Springs CA on Saturday and at Camino Community Church on Sunday. The BUM conference was an all-day affair with seminars, panel discussion (pictured) and I shared the main speaking with Neil Anderson (not the Biola spiritual warfare guy, but the Wycliffe translator from Papua New Guinea. He wrote a book about his experience in PNG called "In Search of the Source" which I would recommend.) It was fun to not only have an opportunity to teach but also to be taught. Joyce and I were also able to share together the night before about how we combine marriage and ministry. It was very encouraging to me to see so many men excited about godliness and service.
Our Sunday at Camino was also a great time. We shared in both services and then spent the rest of the day with former Liebenzell missionaries, now pastoring the church, the Leuices (pictured with all of us) and many Camino church people eating and fellowshipping. We enjoyed it so much we stayed until after 9 PM. It was great getting caught up in what is happening in the Leuice's lives and getting them up to date on what is happening in Micronesia.We will be at The Gold Country Baptist Mission meeting on Friday night and at 1st Baptist Redding CA on Sunday.

Dave, It was so nice to get to see you both and to meet Happiness. I have added your new email info for the church prayer requests and I read a few here that I will keep in mind when praying.
Praying that you will have a pleasant furlough and not be too tired when you return home (to Guam).
Blessings!
