Iowa

Last night we had a great service with Pastor and Sister George. They pastor a wonderful congregation in Anamosa, Iowa. We met them on our first deputation and so we had been excited to have service with them again, 10 years later on deputation #3! They treated us so kindly. We love the church at Anamosa and the Georges!
Their Beautiful Church Building Right On The Highway!
Sister George And I--She is so sweet!

Alana and I spent the night with their daughters Sophie and Savannah who are twins. This is us with Savannah posing by Sophie's remarkable fan from New Orleans! Ha:))

Us with Sophie.


The Georges have 5 daughters. This is my beautiful friend Ruby, who is daughter #3. We became friends on our first deputation and emailed back and forth for years! It was so nice to see her again and catch up!

Nice boys posing by our banner, "Missions, a Race With The Clock" This picture was actually taken before our Sunday AM service with Bro. and Sis. Streeter. The Streeters were such a blessing to us. Their son is holding the Peranha.

Back to Sunday PM in Anamosa. More kids! This is our display table they are posing in front of.

I really liked this pulpit made of dark glass.

Our very moving missions presentation :))
Thank you Iowa for being such a missions-minded district! Because of you, we will be able to return to Brazil much sooner!
