Bible Conference and sickness

This past week we were in at Beryl Baptist in Vilonia, Arkansas at a Bible Conference. We really enjoyed ourselves. The people of the church were so hospitable and friendly. There was a lot of hard work and preparation put into this conference. We are so thankful for the time to get away and be apart of the conference. We heard some great preaching and wonderful singing. We also had time to spend with some friends. Which was truly a blessing, especially for me? The devil was really fighting the conference well, he was fighting us. We had an ordeal with getting our prayer cards which it worked out. Our presentation is still a work in progress, but it fell apart the morning that we took it to set up. Then on top of all of that Jon Caden started getting sick Friday. We took him to a pediatrician there in Conway. Then Jon got really sick Saturday night. We intended to stay until Sunday night, but we had to leave right after the morning services. We took a different route than we were used to coming home and got really lost. I was driving so yes it was my fault. We finally did make it home safely. Jon Caden is better. Jon is hopefully getting a little better and now I am getting it. Although, everything went wrong we had a great time. We have a few churches that we are going to go to this month. Jon is currently still interim at Lakeview Baptist. They are voting on a man on the 15. If he is voted in and accepts then we will really be hitting the road on deputation. We are really busy the whole month of April. Hopefully these next trips will go a little smoother than this one. At least it’s one that want be forgotten.

    Jeremy says that as long as the devil is hot on your trail you know you're doing something right...ha, it wouldn't hurt if he'd let up a little though would it. ;o}

    Glad the guys are feeling better and pray you will too soon!
