Because I take a lot of the photos we often don't get any decent pictures of us. You may not think this is good but you should see some of the others.

The next months are going to see us separated a fair amount and so we would value prayer for that. On Monday (30 Jan) I leave for South Africa for a month - a week of International Leadership Meetings and then 2 weeks of Leadership Matters Training.

Susannah and Dave Kretzschmar

Well, they are husband and wife. It is difficult to believe that my youngest daughter is a bride and now a wife with two weeks of experience.

We were so thankful for God's wonderful presence with us and for all the many friends who came to join us in celebration. We feel enormously rich.

The plans are for a week in Cincinnati where they may settle later. Then there is two months in Costa Rica learning Spanish (Susannah) and working on organic farms. Of course there will also be some serious surfing and diving.

The summer may well see 3 months of Salmon fishing in Alaska. Then I guess it will be time to think about further plans.

Elsie and I are chilly in the frosty air of 17 December, but you can tell that we are pretty delighted that we have seen Dave and Susannah wed. It was a most wonderful wedding with the Lord uplifted.

Notice how well my tie matches Elsie's outfit. I never cease to be amazed at these women.
