THE HEAVILIN HERALD
It’s March, and we are still in our favorite place in the world,
Morro Bay, California. We will be leaving here on the 17th and
heading toward Redlands for a few weeks.
We took a drive again yesterday to a little village on Highway One,
Ragged Point.(See attached photo.)
In February, we acknowledged the death date of our son Nathan by
sending off balloons in memory of our three boys. (See attached
photo.) Nathan has now been gone twenty-two years. Some would wonder
why we acknowledge that date after so many years, but you see that
date represents a time when our lives changed forever. It is our
prayer that we have followed God’s plan in letting our lives and our
mission be molded by the Lord and by what He has allowed to
penetrate our lives. I think the saddest thing would be if we walked
through the deaths of our three boys and didn’t allow these traumas
to change us and change our direction in life.
We are enjoying the little church we have been led to. (See attached
photo.) We are enjoying getting to know the pastor and his wife and
have made other friends as well. The neat part about traveling as we
do is that we have found Christian fellowship all around the
country.
This is our second year of full-timing. We feel like pros now. The
advantages of full-timing are that we have no concerns about a
house, no house payments, no utility payments, no insurance, no
house owner worries.
When we first started living full time in an RV, I really felt a
void in Christian fellowship and sharing. Besides a reduction in
responsibilities, we have had an opportunity to make friends all
over the country. Many of those friends have become great prayer
partners as well. The Internet has definitely become my friend. The
Internet has allowed me to make contact with relatives I hardly knew
before and I can also share needs and keep in touch with dear old
and new Christian friends.
Besides all of these pluses, Glen and I have become even better
friends than we were previously, and we get to do the things we both
enjoy. We recently took an evening tour at Hearst Castle. We love
the evening tours because everything is set in the twenties and
thirties and there are people dressed in period clothing. (See
attached photo.)
We look forward to being in Redlands for a few weeks. It is always
nice to be back to familiar territory.
In His love,
