LEGACY CHURCH (Lehigh Valley Project)

The EAGLE has landed!

We are on the ground in the Lehigh Valley in a permanent way now - Wooohoo! It does not get any more real than this now. A totally exciting and kind of nerve-wracking time.

Life is a box strewn mess right now; and my legs and back are tired from unpacking and shopping for curtains, etc; but.., overall - life is good!

Cool story about the move - We arrived around 1:30pm on Saturday the 14th (Valentine's Day) and there were 8 folks from a local church which is officially launching a week before we are.  Really nice folks and they worked hard in unpacking us quickly.  Mad props to the peeps of Riverbend Community Church.  We now have new friends in the valley to do some local outreach with!

We had several family members of course and my son Chad and his fiance Heather rode up with us to help with the movement of vehicles.  The move overall was very smooth, so Thank You so much for praying for us!

Anyway.., just wanted to drop a line to say that the first phase of our team has landed.  Mike and Nicole will arrive the end of March and then the really fun stuff begins!

Keep us in prayer - Karen is a bit emotional (bless her heart!), and it is a wee bit colder up here for sure! :-)

Until the next time pray for the people of the Valley!

Anytime man! Hope the unpacking comes along. We are still unpacking from moving in three years ago!

Hope the unpacking is going well. :)
