Adam and Abigail's Adventures

                                           Wow, PTP has been really nice.  A lot of old faces and some new. To think, I may not know everyone here but they're all a part of the church of Christ. It's that wonderful bond that Christ has given us! And because we are all apart of the Church ( and I would even say, among the strong and faithful), the lessons are on a deeper level. Since we all know the stories ( accounts), we can dive into the Word- comparing this and applying that.          After several weeks of gathering and putting it together ( I had the hardest time getting the green lettering on the black project board to stay on) I set up my booth in the vending area. I was quite surprised to see so many others doing exactly what I'm doing. But I should have thought, " 3,000 people are coming, tons of other people will be using this great oppo...

Well folks, it's been a while since I've written and for that I apologize. I just didn't feel like I had much to say in the progress of the library ( or my life for that matter- we traveled here, we traveled there), but now I clearly have enough. :) Since GBN I have tried to contact several people in  many congregations, attempting to get either one-time funds or monthly support.  I've gotten some  no's and have yet to receive any donations. But I've been told that you have to get a certain number of "no's" before you can get any "yes's".  I just spent the last  week in Montgomery. Dad was recording a class that he's teaching at Faulkner ( he's not going to be able to be there for all the semester). Me and David tagged along, hoping to get a few things done. Todd had agreed to give me some driving lessons and Robert Waggoner had told me to stop by when I got the chance and go through some books of his to see if I w...

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.                  ...

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. ...
