Hello again,

I have some exciting news! The Logan Martin Church of Church has decided to oversee Parker Memorial Library and collect the funds. I'm so thrilled...one big step closer.

Now, just to set up two bank accounts. Mark McWhorter has been an amazing help and continues to be so. He has a love for books and a desire to see others learn. I would be no where near where I am in accomplishing this library if not for him. God has blessed this effort! With the help of his daughter Katie (who works at a bank), he has agreed to set up the bank account.

In an effort to improve the presentation, GBN is allowing me to record my voice in their studio. By putting audio on my presentation, it will be more personal and interesting. So, when that is accomplished, I will put the presentation on this blog.

                                                   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The last two weeks I have spent at camp. One week at Backwoods Christian Camp and the other at Indian Creek Youth Camp. Backwoods was amazing, as always. I was privileged to get to work with the 4th-6th grade girls and thoroughly enjoyed myself. They were such a sweet group of girls!

Apologetics Press does a week at ICYC every year and it was a pleasure to finally meet many of the authors whose books I have been reading for years. I was able to make some connections at ICYC for the library. I was able to give two presentation DVD's out, one to a contact at the Northport congregation and one to Dave Miller. Apologetics Press has marvelously agreed to help the library out with some books. It's so nice to know that everything that the library will receive from them will be sound in the Word.

Reaching Out

Hello from Pa! We had another great clothing giveaway on November 7th. The congregation really stepped up and we had even more clothes to give out to the community this time. It was a good thing too, because a friend of a family who lost their home to a fire stopped by and gathered up 12-15 bags of clothes and food. That brought our total to 75 bags of clothing and food given out and 18 families aided. We also had a member bring a bunch of books she no longer needed. When I saw this table, all I could think was "I need these!" Even though they were mostly children's books, there was this desire to take them all home with me. I obviously have a problem, hehe. The helpers enjoyed a meal of sloppy joes and baked beans. We would have had a bigger turn out but one of the members needed help moving so 5 or 6 men spent all morning and some of the afternoon assisting them. All in all, it was a great day. Picture on Right: Emily...

An Observation

                                                                      An Observation      Recently, Lindsey was hired by World Bible School to hand out lessons and see that they are graded. She thought that stopping by the Arusha Library she might be able to find a few English speaking people with whom she could conduct a bible study. The library is about 30 minutes from our house and in the middle of town.      You can not see it, but it has a downstairs area where the children's section is located. (This picture was not taken by me)       Lindsey asked that I accom...

Hi... This blog is meant to serve two purposes. A place for me to write and talk about my life in Africa and a place where those that support the Parker Memorial Library can read about how the library is progressing. I hope that in both purposes, the read is informative and enjoyable! I will be sure to post pictures and write at least once a week.   Our plane ride to the States went very well. It was great to be able to celebrate with Todd and Lauren on their wedding day. My grandparent's farm was a great place to have it (minus the cow patties :)). I think my favorite part was helping direct the wedding.   The library is on it's way to being established! This weekend I have been invited to show my presentation (which I will put on here in good time) to the Logan Martin congregation (in Pell City, AL) after services. There are still many things to do, but with God's help, all will be accomplished. ...
