So, we had Ernesto and Angie with us this week and it was such a nice visit. They were here a total of 5 days and it was wonderful! They slept in, wrote blogs, updated mailing lists and caught up on all their loose ends. I was pleased to hear that they'd gotten so much done during their visit, as they'd been on the road for almost 2 weeks straight, sleeping in a different place almost each night, very rarely having their own room or space and preaching, teaching and talking for days. Granted their trip to WA was a little off course for where they were headed (from Nebraska to LA) but what a blessing it was to visit and enjoy their company.
Ernesto is still the same guy he was 15 years ago when I first met him... passionate about life and extremely excitable. He loves comics, movies, Macs and music. He loves his Jr. High students back in MI and was sad to leave that ministry, but very excited that he's been taken to this new ministry. He loves reading and reads anything he can get his hands on regarding the church or missions. He's hungry for the word and diligent of spreading the news. Although we'd never met Angie before this visit, she is such a complement to Ernesto. They lead the ministry together. She's well read, very intelligent and so sweet. She has a tender heart for people and yet is a bit shy. She comes from a sound background with supportive parents who support their venture whole-heartedly and have been a great influence for them along the years.
After hearing their many stories and asking our questions, there is no doubt that God prepared each of them for the other, and is paving their way to India. The answers are clear along the way and they've answered faithfully.
While they were here, we visited Seattle's Pike Place Market, had great walks down memory lane and created new memories along the way. Ken finally had a partner to play Wii with and they played like they did years ago! It was such a blessing to have them in our home. If you feel led to take a look, check out their website (www.claycups.net) and consider giving towards the call they've heard and are followed.

That is one HUGE sandwich, did he eat it all?
He did eat most of it... I think all but a few slices of meat. He seriously has a hallow leg! And doesn't gain a lb.
