VOM Ministry at Gold Country Baptist Church in Shingle Springs CA

Last Friday night we had the opportunity to present our program at Gold Country Baptist Church in Shingle Springs. This is another of the churches that has been one of our partner churches since Joyce and I began ministry in 1984. GCBC has always been special to us since the church was founded by Joyce's dad and is the church where my parents now attend. Three times, during furloughs and internships, we have been on staff at the church and we have built deep relationships with many people there. GCBC has also hosted Micronesian students in the past. So it was really wonderful to be able to bring a group of our students to present what we are doing to the people at GCBC. We had a great three days in the area and appreciate very much the hospitality shown to us. Again I am using Sarah Cain's pictures - Thank you Sarah.




The girls always enjoy presenting their worship dances












It was great to fellowship with the people at GCBC at the dinner before the performance. As you can see there was plenty of food.















Grace always sings from the heart. 
The best part of the trip is all the good people we get to meet. So many people have opened their homes to us, fed us and taken care of us and we are very thankful
Here are some more pictures of us with new (and old) friends











I really love this picture. My family (who all drove over to see the concert) with my Micronesian family. 
I got the opportunity to thank the people at GCBC for faithful support of our ministry and for the many people the church has sent to us at PIU.
