We had a wonderful time at the Austin open house, held at Kristen's parents home (see picture above of us with Kristen's cute parents!). We were able to reconnect with many friends, and in every case, we wish we could have had at least an hour to visit one-on-one with each person there! It was almost a tease to see so many special people and not be able to catch up as much as we would have liked, but nonetheless, we were blessed by the presence of each person there. Thank you especially to Mike and Jeani Copeland who drove from Oklahoma to be here! Jeani was Kristen's teammate/roommate during her first trip to China in 2000, and the Copelands are moving to East Asia in October for an indefinite period of time. We are excited to be able to support them in prayer as they go to serve a people and country that we miss so dearly!
