Happy New Year!



Happy New Year from the Woods. How quickly the past year went. As we are down to 3 and a half weeks until we depart for Richmond, VA. We look at that number and realize we have tons to still do and not a lot of time. We've done our dentist and eye appointments and ordered supplies off the internet that we need to take with us. Aaron had Lasik eye surgery yesterday. He went in with 20/300 vision and walked out with 20/30 vision and then was reading at the 20/15 line at the eye doctor today. It is amazing how the technology we have today can do so much. He is truly blessed to have had this done, so as to not be dependant on glasses in a foreign place.

We had a very wonderful Christmas spent with family and New Year's with friends. On the 28th we went to Kaleidoscope at Crown Center for a family session. The girls had a lot of fun and we didn't have such a bad time either. Aaron's last day at work was January 2nd. So we have been trying to get caught up with reading the 3 books we have to read before we leave on the 4th. With that among the other items on our very long list of items to do, our stress level goes a little higher.

This past weekend we spoke at Antioch Baptist Church in Greenville, MO. It is located really close to Sedalia. It was a very good visit with me singing a song special and Aaron and I talking about missions and needing prayer support. We will be traveling to Springfield, MO this weekend to do it all over again. Please pray that we will have a successful trip and gain lots of partners for the ministry of Christ. Be Blessed this new year!

Aaron and Gabrielle, I'm so glad to be praying for you and the people of Puebla. We enjoyed your visit to Springfield and especially enjoyed your participation in Sunday School. God bless as He uses you to do a special work in Mexico.
