Blest be the tie that binds


"May the LORD keep watch between you and me
when we are away from each other."
~Genesis 31:49
Just wanted to write a brief update! My recovery has gone slower than expected, but I am feeling better and starting to get stronger. I should be able to return to Italy in January and am very eager to begin my work with the church in Vicenza! I've been keeping in touch with some of my English students and friends in Italy and am looking forward to seeing them again soon! Please continue to pray for my complete healing. Thank you so much for your encouragement during these last three months!

I am delighted to report that one of my English students in Catania was baptized this month! She is a very sweet and intelligent Chinese girl in her last year of high school; she studied extensively with both Kensey and Chad, and I am glad I had a chance to study with her a little as well. We are so proud of her momentous decision and are glad to have been a part of her faith journey.

Kensey and I with our new sister in Christ :)



Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you all enjoy the holiday season with family and friends!
