Rodney's trip to a Bible Dedication

On the 5th of May I (Rodney) attended my first Bible dedication on the island of Coron here in the Philippines. Translators Ed and Jakie Ruch came in the early 60's, and although Jakie passed away about 7 years ago Ed is now seeing the fruit of their labor in the completion of the Tagbanwa New Testament.

In the Philippines Directors words- "God held off the rain for travel and during the celebration. The day was a testimony to God’s goodness in His transformation of this community over many years, and through the faithful service of Ed & Jackie Ruch and their team."

Training has paid off

It sure makes a poppa proud to see his child finally learn to ride a bike without training wheels. We credit this partly to Austin riding a scooter which is easier to balance because of it's low center of gravity. He can even start the bike all by himself. He turned 4 three days ago!
