all class love you

It's been a whirlwind since Matt got home! Stacey wasn't the only one waiting for him to get back! He's been quite overloaded with a week of missed work, and with several VERY Happy students :) Whenever he went to class yesterday, his students had written on the board, "Met. Matt, all class love you!" (Met. is a term of respect here.)

We know that you are, but please keep praying for Casey and Laura. Casey is back to work, and Laura is still healing at home. They are both truly struggling with missing their little son, and we are struggling that we can't sit with them, help them, be with them. We are there for them in our prayers and in our hearts, and we know that you are, too. Thank you.We have two visiting teams in right now, which makes for a full compound. Wednesday night we did a presentation about the seminary for 20 visitors, and it went really well. Stacey's English class sang a few songs, one of Matt's students shared an AWESOME testimony about the Lord brining him to Himself, directing him to the seminary, and providing for him to be here. It was a night that really blessed us both...When we get discouraged about some of the nitty-gritty details at the seminary, the students and their testimonies remind us of our main purpose here, and remind of us of His faithfulness.
