Chillin' in West Virginia :-)

Greetings from the beautiful mountains of West Virginia! We're just here hangin' out with Kyle's family and we're having a great time. Monday night we went to a cook-out with a group of people from the church where Kyle's dad, Bro. Greg Kinzer, pastors. There were about 30 people in attendance and we just enjoyed some yummy food and good fellowship. After supper we all gathered around the campfire for some singing and testimonies, and Kyle brought a short message. Praise the Lord we were able to see three people accept Jesus Christ as their Savior! The cook-out was a great success! Today we've just been exploring around Princeton. We were able to ride the airtram in Pipestem State Park and go wading in the river. Now us girls are in the kitchen getting some supper together while the guys are out fishing. :-) Tomorrow we'll be heading to Lexington, Kentucky for our Wednesday evening service. Pray that all goes well!



Singing by the campfire...well, it's behind us actually


Mmm! Toasting marshmallows!

Hanging out by the river


This is Summer's flip-flop. She was having such a good time wading around in the water, her shoe came off : (



Aww! Poor lil' Summer... But don't worry, we waited a while and it came close enough to us that Kyle was able to reach out with a long stick and save it

Wow! What A Weekend!

We have had a blast this past weekend! Once we got to Stoneville, NC we got to hang out with our friend Jordan Tickle. His mom let us make our own homemade pizzas and she also made us some amazing chocolate meringue pie! Mmm! And after eating all that yummy food we played volleyball with some great teens from Amazing Grace Baptist Church. Today we had the privilege of being with Amazing Grace for our morning service and Gospel Light Baptist in Christiansburg, VA in the evening. Bro. Tony was able to preach in both churches and Kyle and Caleb preached during the Sunday school hour this morning. You could definitely tell that every message was carefully studied out and prayed over. God used each one in His own special way to speak to the hearts of the people. Praise the Lord for another day to represent Him to two more churches in our country! Tomorrow we will be driving back to Princeton, WV where we will be attending a cook-out with the people from Kyle's church. Please pray for our safety and for the Lord's hand to be on us as we minister! As the end of our summer tour is quickly approaching we want to make sure we finish strong!



So I realized that I put some of Dustin's b-day pics up, but I forgot to put some of Caleb's up...his birthday was a few weeks ago. So here is a picture of his cookie cake :)



And we went into some random mall that had a carousel so we rode it in honor of his 20th b-day. I felt like a little kid again :)


Playing volleyball...my team won...I think. lol



Making pizzas. For some reason they look like we caught them in the act of doing something they shouldn't have been doing. Hmmm...












I think they're having a little too much fun with this... :-)




All of us with Jordan




The guys with Pastor Owens after church Sunday morning...You can see that Kyle was a little eager to get rid of his suit jacket and tie :)
