Meeting Arnold

My uncle and aunt (Ron & Jan) went to Africa a few years ago and came back with a burden for the people there.  When they began telling us stories about the people they met there, our entire family felt the call to help the few people who were there working to spread the Gospel of Christ.  For the past two years we have been prayerfully and financially (although we're only able to provide a fraction of what they need) supporting several missionaries in Dakar, Senegal.  Arnold, the head pastor, is currently in the USA!  He went to a conference at Pepperdine and then Ron & Jan flew him to DFW so that he could meet with our family!  It was wonderful to meet in person a man who's picture we've been looking at on our fridge and praying over for the last 2 years!  He has a great vision/plan for spreading the world of Christ in a country that is 95% Muslim.  We had so little time to talk with him...but it was wonderful to encourage him and pray with him. 
This picture of Collin and Brody at dinner was too cute to leave out.  These cousins love each other like brothers!

Brody definitely has Steve's crystal blue eyes, doesn't he? They are both handsome boys.
