Integrity and "Yes, LORD!"newsletter

Amos, Laura and Ethan arrived yesterday from Los Angeles for a several day visit. It's good to have some commotion in the house now! My priority, behind my life in Christ and with Mary Ann, is caring for my family as a husband, dad and grandpa while I work with kids from broken families. I *must* have integrity. The definition of integrity is honest, whole, fair and complete so I can't be saying one thing and doing another. This is difficult when there's thousands of miles between us but by Gods grace it's doable. Where there's a will there's a way. 

Yesterday we finished our 3rd quarter 4-page hardcopy "Yes, LORD!" newsletter after six drafts and many cups of coffee. It's now being printed and will be in the hands of our precious readers soon. Our difficulty is knowing what worthy news to report on because there's so much going on! We've written these letters for 31 years and they've proven to be well worth the time and expense. Much of the credit for it's production goes to Mary Ann and to our dear co-workers but all the glory goes to God.
