MARCH 2, 2010 UPDATE

Hello Everyone,

We continue to make progress toward the March-April trip. Yesterday I distributed all of the water filters that we will use in the hygiene programs to the various missionaries that will be traveling with me. I mailed them to some of those who live far away and took the others by car to those who live in the Knoxville area. I still have a suitcase with stuff to transport and 4 filters waiting for Breland Millican, my photographer, to pick up on his way down. I don't know how many trips Breland has made with me but he takes personal offense if we go and he can't go. He thought about this long one for a while but in the end he couldn't resist.

A missionary that I helped get started will be coming in tomorrow; Dan Susong. He and his wife and his youngest daughter work full time in Ecuador now. I will pick him up in Chattanooga and he will spend a couple of nights here at my house. Dan did several videos for me. He is a professional videographer. I do my own videos now but I wish he could do them. His work is much better. He has taught me a lot and I really appreciate it. He crashes at my house sometime when he is in doing fund raising, etc.

I will be in the Portland Revival Center in Corpus Christi, Texas this weekend with Dan Waite and his family who are living there now. Judy is going with me. The church is paying my airfare for the trip. I look forward to seeing Dan and Karen. I believe the last time I saw them was when the snow was knee deep in Michigan.

Later,

Rev.
