Events, vacations, birthdays, testimonies, celebrations; anything you can think of that a family has done together.

A Trip to Cabela’s

This week we had the opportunity to go to Cabela’s with some friends of ours the Elliotts and Pitcocks. It was a long drive but defiantly worth it. They had a really colossal mountain in the middle of the building covered in all sorts of animals. They had a lynx chasing a rabbit, mountain sheep jumping […]

Families Gather for Eventful Day

Sunday, October 28, marked a day of fellowship and fun for our family at Cacapon Resort State Park, West Virginia. We traveled over 100 miles over the mountains for a memorable get-together with the Wilkes, Sutphins, Campbells, and Mattiches. It was one of those cloudless mornings where the beams of sun were just warm enough […]

Amazing Grace

Only 15 minutes! The thought made my heart skip a beat. That was all the time that I had left to put together a piano arrangement for the delegation of mayors and leading educators from Romania! Just a short time earlier I received word that the delegation had made a special request to Mr. Gothard […]

Groundbreaking Continues

“There’s a first time for everything.” October 2 This marked another first day of school: public school teaching in Taiwan. It has been almost three and a half years since I taught public school in Russia but once again the same basic principles worked: patience, getting to know the students and assessing where they are […]

A Threefold Accord

Enlarge the place of thy tent!

On July 4 through 7 (Wednesday through Saturday) Dad had four days off work in which to put up the shed. Uncle Alan would be here to help on Thursday and Friday. The lumber had been delivered and we had been able to finish the sill plates, band boards, and some of the floor joists ahead […]

The Love Tree

This month our family has been studying the character quality of “love” (Giving to others’ basic needs without having as my motive personal reward). To help us learn this quality we made a “love tree.” Here’s how it works: each person gets a different colored heart. Every time someone does a good deed” they write […]

A Ride on the Edge

Take a section of the Rocky Mountains, cover it in subtropical foliage and set it on an island one hundred miles off the coast of China and you have: eastern Taiwan. During the widely-celebrated Moon Festival (September 22-25) we had the chance to visit Hualien, Taiwan’s country vacationland. We returned on the 24th, just before […]

Revival in the Northwoods!

Today was incredible! Over one hundred students from Verity College had gathered with Mr. Gothard to seek the Lord for a week in the beautiful Northwoods of Michigan. After a day of delighting in the Lord through fasting, times alone in prayer, powerful preaching, study of the Word with others, and “entertaining” God, the Spirit […]
