This year has been quite eventful, both in our 6th year with Answers in Genesis and in our personal lives. We can’t adequately tell you how much it has meant to us to know you are praying for us. How blessed we are to know that at no time have our lives have been out of God’s control.
For the past couple of years, we have been doing conferences in Florida during the winter where we were able to stay with my mom and spend some time with her. This year as we were traveling down, my mom, aged 91, went into the hospital. Within a week, she had passed away, and is now healed and rejoicing with our Lord.
In March, Lois had cancer surgery which was followed by an infection that she fought for about a month. The good news is that the cancer was caught early and is gone – no chemo or radiation required.
Conferencing with Answers in Genesis continued, but for a while I had to travel without my Lois, my greatest help. She is traveling with me again, but has another surgery in July. Pray that she will heal quickly without infection.
We’re currently at Sacandaga Bible Conference in New York speaking at one of their family camps, and will go from here to Camp Patmos on Kelly’s Island in Ohio to speak to the kids at their family camp.
Although busy, we feel blessed to be doing what we’re doing – sharing the gospel and challenging people to a greater faith in God’s Word. Recently, at a youth outreach in a small church in southern Ohio, I shared the gospel, starting with the history in Genesis. Three young men were saved that night. That’s why we do what we do. Thanks so much for your prayers and gifts that allow us to continue this ministry.
