This one is for you, Mom.

We finally made it up to BG this past weekend. It was attempt number three. Illness nor snow stopped us this time! We had a great time and saw many people - even more people than we thought we'd see! Again Mom told that she reads the Runyon's blog every day because, well they update it ever day. We just can't compete with them. Maybe if we had iPhones, we could update on-the-go. :)

Last night, we had a very encouraging meeting with the missions director at our church. She helped us brainstorm effective ways to meet and connect with people within our church since it is so big. It was so encouraging to talk to her, because she used to be on staff with Crusade in the Columbus metro. Pray that our new pursuit of referrals would be fruitful, and we'd meet the people God has for our team.

I [Jonelle] absolutely can't wait until we can drop our jobs and pursue MPD full-time. However, I do really enjoy my job as a middle school aide [for a moderate to severe classroom]. I laugh multiple times each day, and it is great! Yesterday, we had one of our students streak through the classroom. A couple adults tried to corral him back in the bathroom while myself and some others threw ourselves over the girls' eyes so they wouldn't be scarred for life. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.
