April took a bit of a different turn in our schedule. The month started as usual with a missions’ conference in Texas, but for the second week of April, we were in wedding mode. Joneia’s middle sister got MARRIED! We are so excited for them and their union. Since February, this was the first weekend that we didn’t actually have a meeting. The Lord has given us such amazing energy to continue beyond our ability. We enjoyed two conferences, a wedding, and Easter Sunday in April, and look forward to what God has for us in the coming months.

When we began on the deputation trail, we had no idea how fun it could be! This last month, we visited churches that felt so much like home. What I expected to be nerves and worry turned into joy and excitement as we got to see familiar faces in Oklahoma and Texas. God knows when we need encouragement and joy. When the trail feels long and hard, it is a blessing to see friends and family. It gives us a much needed boost to continue on our deputation trail.

What a busy month this has been! To summarize, we made it back from Washington, had a meeting, drove to Florida, had a meeting, drove back from Florida, had a meeting, drove to Oklahoma, and we are now parked in Oklahoma for a meeting. We are thrilled to have our schedule so packed and are blessed with the love and support we’ve seen so far. For me, it really feels like deputation has really taken off with weekly meetings. We are super busy, but feel so extremely blessed.

Our time in Washington came to an end. We flew back to Texas on the 29^th and are excited for our meetings in the South. We are so grateful to all the churches who gave us the chance to present in Washington and those who took us on for support. It was a refreshing time to see God still working in Washington.
