Rich time in Minnesota

Mary Ann and I have been in Minnesota, our home state, for a little over two weeks and are having a rich time with family, friends, meetings and preparing our apartment for a missionary family that will stay in it. Last Sunday we ministered at St Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Cloquet, my hometown, and we had a great time getting reacquainted with longtime friends and making new ones. Tuesday we spoke at a brunch for seniors from Grace Church Eden Prairie who were really attentive, yesterday we spoke at the weekly chapel of an independent living home for seniors who were also very tuned into our message and challenge. Our final meeting will be at a church in Superior, Wisconsin which is new to us and wants to learn more about ACTION. Thursday we leave for our son's wedding in Pasadena, California and we're not sure when we'll be back to Minnesota.
