Hello Everyone. I hope everyone is doing well. We are so thankful for your prayers and concerns while we are away. Everything is going well here. The men have the baptistery well under way and hope to complete it before our departure. Michelle. Meredith and Cathy spent the day in the library organizing. Myself, Faye and Lori under the direction and supervison of Pete Sasser and Bill Langley cleaned our home. This trip has been a huge success.
I had a chance to go alone to one of the homes for a short devotional. It went well the children lead singing and when they sing the do it from the bottom of their hearts. Some songs I may never sing again without shedding a tear.
Our last VBS was yesterday.It went extremely well. But after traveling outside of the Village of Hope it made my view point on the Village here much more meaningful. The children here are happy for a reason. That reason is that they are taught the love of Jesus Christ.
Thank you again for all of your support and prayers. Please keep us in your prayers as we complete our last days and prepare to travel home in one week.
Thank you

Billie Jean, I love your insight about the reason the children at the Village of Hope are so happy. Now you see just what "Hope" can do for us. We love you and are so thankful you are able to be a part of that loving group. Anita
Billie Jean, I loved your "Blog" posting and your description of the children and why they are happy. What a beautiful picture you painted. We miss you and look forward to seeing all of you in about a week. Love, Peggy Taylor
Billie Jean: I am so glad you got to go to VOH and I can't wait to hear those songs. I'll cry with you. Love and miss you, Becky
Hey Tall Man: Give me that paint brush! Boy, I miss you. On a serious note: Frances Maples' sister in West Virginia passed away last night. Frances is here at the church cleaning as usual. She's sad, but she said she has many great memories and knows her sis is with the Lord. Funeral arrangements pending. Love, Becky
