weekend in kankakee

A HOT weekend we spent in Illinois. Tim and Tanya Berg are old friends of Scott. He was actually best man at their wedding. We stayed at their house the whole weekend. Thanks guys for feeding us, entertaining us, letting us intrude your house!

The Illinois sweet corn was SWEET!! :)

Benjamin had a fascination with the flowers

Sniffing pretty flowers

On Sunday morning we went to Grace Bible Church with our friends. To our surprise the guest speaker was none less than Dave Meyers from new tribes! He spoke about perseverance in our journey. It was very encouraging. At the evening service we had the privilege to share our testimonies and about the ministry that the Lord has called us to do in Indonesia. Many people came up to us afterwards with questions, or to tell us about their Hungarian relatives. That was very cool! :)
