Deputation

Hey Friends and Family:

So, here we are, with our first blog. I will try and keep this up so you all can keep up with what is going with us easier.

We leave this Friday, the 15th of July for our first deputation. We should be back in Texas by August 9th or 10th.  We will be putting in tons of driving and seeing as many of you as we can along the way. If we don't have you on our calander yet please let us know your contact info and preference for us getting together ASAP.

We are going first to Salina KS to see some of Joe's long lost relatives and then up to SD to see Teri's baby brother Jim. Then to Casper WY and into WA, stopping to see Teri's Aunt Julie on the way. This puts us in the Tacoma area on the evening of the 20th of July. We will be in the Tacoma area until July 30th. We plan to be in the Portland/Eugene area Aug 2-4th, then down to California and back home.

For those of you who don't know what deputation is, that is where we make contact with our supporters.  We are faith supported in the work we do. On deputation we visit our supporters and give them an update on what we and the mission that we work for and see if anyone else would like to join us in the work we do. If you are interested in our work you can check out the web link at www.techteam.org or visit us on Facebook at Missionary TECH Team. Basically we do technical support for Christian Missions, Churches and Missionaries. We serve hundreds of missions all over the world. It is very exciting work. Teri is a Graphic Designer and Joe is an administrative assistant.

We are SOOOO excited to come home and see all of our freinds and family. It has been a very rouph year so even though this is a "working" vaccation we look forward to it so much.

Please pray for us as we travel.
-Pray for Joe as his health is fragile and this trip is going to be very hard on him.
-Pray for Brenna as leaving Tacoma was very difficult for her and going home and leaving again is going to be hard also
-Pray for Teri and traveling mercies as the bulk of the driving will fall on her.
-Pray that hearts will be open to hear the message that we bring and that we will go in God's strength.
