Random thoughts or should I say ramblings?

We spent four days in the Salem/Portland area with family friends. Popa and I took the twins home on Saturday, then traveled to a Federal Prison to visit a longtime friend. Sunday found us in morning worship with our Indonesian friend and pastor, who had asked Popa and I both to share and exhort his congregation...it was a wonderful worship service, followed by communion and the word of the Lord. How blessed we are to be honored by just a delightful body of believers! The church always serves us a customary Indonesian meal and we were privileged to visit with Pastor O and his family. Back to Silverton with daughter #1 and more unpacking and yard work. Monday was a little more laid back and we did some organizing then Popa and I drove home at separate times. Yesterday we spent most of the day laying around trying to catch up on our rest. Today found us going to doctor's appointments and keeping one little grandson, visiting an old friend and getting some veggies from her garden. It has been a quiet and peaceful day. We are waiting on God and expecting to see HIS plan for our lives unfold. For some of you who may not know, Popa and I some friends are pursuing going to China towards the end of September/the 1st of October. Please be praying for us. God is faithful and good, HIS mercies are new every morning. Nona
