Texas likes to do things BIG

The last week in September, Jon flew into Texas for a missions conference. The missionaries were treated to many surprises and many opportunities to share their ministries whether it was adults, teens, and children services.
 Pictured below are the host families of this year and also from our deputation. What a blessing they have been to our family.
 Jon couldn't even fit all the gifts into his bags when he returned by plane. He arranged for items to be picked up when driving thru the area later.
 Jon was excited when he was able to golf with the Pastor, some deacons, and special speaker Don Sisk.
 The church took each of the missionaries to the Cavanaugh Flight Museum and Car Show to see demonstrated flights and army tank.

 Jon was able to talk with vets who shared combat stories.

 The missions banquet was a special time with great international food, decorations, testimonies, and fellowship.
 Jon gets treated to an iced coffee at the church lobby before speaking to the teens.

 Meanwhile, our children were able to attend Harvest Festival in Michigan with our sending church youth group. They won 3rd place in dodgeball and participated in many activities. What a blessing to hear of the great preaching at this years festival.

 Jon visits the grassy knoll where JFK was killed. The road is marked with two "x"s where the president was shot.
