Dear Family and Friends,

Opa! Jim and I just returned home from an amazing ten day
trip through Greece. It was the excursion of a lifetime. We got to
experience walking in the footsteps of the Apostle Paul’s second At Mars Hill where the Apostle Paul
missionary journey. We were blessed beyond measure, in fact, gave his speech in the meeting of
the Areopagus from Acts 17:26-27
for the last two days of the trip were able to reunite with our kids “From one man he made every nation
working in Albania - Micah and Molly. Here’s the photo journal: of men, that they should inhabit the
whole earth; and he determined
the times set for them and the exact
places where they should live. God
did this so that men would seek him
and perhaps reach out for him and
find him, though he is not far from
each one of us.”

Sheryl and Jim enjoyed touring the ancient ruins of the library at Ephesus.

Sheryl and Jim were amazed
at the current renovation of the
church at Philippi.
The Footsteps of Paul Tour was organized by Pacific Church Network and
Pilgrim Tours, led by Pastors Jim Smith and Rick Koole. We were thankful to
spend time with other believers who desire to experience a deeper faith and
learn more of ancient biblical history.

Family times mean I scream for

ice cream, even in Phillipi. Such
a joy to spend two days with our
Albanian children, Micah and
Thank you so much for your prayers and partnership, Molly and their four kids James, John, Betty and Peggy. They drove down from
Tirana, Albania, about a five hour jaunt from our hotel in Thessaloniki.
