A Nomad

That's how I feel at times! So, I just got back from the wedding of two college friends in Grass Valley, as well as some time with staff friends at a ski retreat in Tahoe, this weekend. And tomorrow I head down to LA for a training conference til Friday. And then some time at home, to do a little ministry update at a church, as well as celebrate my birthday a tad early with family. On top of all this Deb, my team leader, and I just booked our plane tickets to East Asia for Spring Break today. I promise to share MUCH MORE about that very soon - but as you can see my job (and life in general) takes me all over the place. And truthfully, typically I love it! It is such a blessing to have a schedule that is unpredictable and very varied because it keeps me on my toes AND on my knees before the Lord. It also forces me to seek rest in the Lord, not in a particular place, because only He is truly present wherever I go. So thankful! Well, I think that's the update for now - lots to wrap up and pack in a short amount of time. Have a great week friends!

Love the nomad lifestyle! If you can't do it now, when will you be able to do it?!?! And when are you going to come to southern California for something other than work? Like for a visit?!

Have a great week!

Hi Nomad,
how are you doing? Still happy birthday to you!! Did you have a nice day? Where are you going in East Asia? I have a nomad daughter too. She wants to go with grandma to your country this summer. It will probably be in August. Are you around then?If you want to see what we are doing in Africa, you can go to www.stichtingatta.nl
This week they renew the site.
Do your parents like their new home?
All the best to you,
