Had a family cookout the other night and my kids (on the ends) got to have a bonfire and sparklers with their cousins (in the middle). Being in the Arizona dry heat we don’t like anything with flames around the house!
It was a fun night with family and we are so thankful for the good times.
Then last night we had a dinner get-together with a supporter of Saved By God’s Grace. Carol and her daughter have been wonderful in telling others about the 
kids in Kenya. Her church is having VBS and focusing on missions around the world. They will be collecting change for The Change Campaign. During the week of VBS she will be calling Chuck on speakerphone and letting the kids ask questions about being a missionary, Kenya and what ever question they come up with! They’ll use a photo like this one just like they use on the news – “On the phone is Chuck McDonald…”
They’ll also discuss the spiritual poverty of those living in the US. We were able to give them some insight into this with our recent trip to Skid Row.
We leave tomorrow night/Saturday morning at midnight for New York. We are scheduled to be there between noon and 4 pm on Saturday.
Thank you for all your prayers and support – I love watching God working in different people, different situations and different ways. His grace is sufficient for what ever it is He calls you to!
