Long Time, No Blog

I'm not sure if anyone ever looks at our blog anymore but I think I'm ready to use it again. Yay!!!! Next week marks our 3 month anniversary of being back in Khon Kaen, Thailand. Originally, I named this blog "Sweet Journey" referring to our long, but sweet, journey to our first child, Sophie Mei. Now, I would like to keep the title but have it represent our family's daily "sweet journey" with Jesus as we live a relatively normal life as Americans in northeastern Thailand. I would love all you precious people that we love so much to occasionally see and hear what's going on in our daily lives. Marc has a blog where he keeps everyone updated with the ministry on the college campus, this blog will be more about our life at home, where Sophie and I spend most of our time. So, stay tuned and I'll try to come up with everyday musings to keep you involved in our lives. We love ya'll!

We are on the Billy Graham Christmas Special

We were asked in August by the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association to be part of their Christmas special that they do each year. We said yes with a big smile. From the beginning we have asked God to bring many people to Himself through this adoption and our daughter as we point to Jesus. The special has already aired in Atlanta but will air in other GA cities and all over the USA this week and month. You can check here for local listings.

They mention our story, show a small clip and point you to their web-site where there is a web-exclusive video of us.

Here is the Web-exclusive.
