A Trip to India(na)

On Friday we made a quick trip to Indiana to see Helen and Richard Uriah (they are brother and sister). Helen was a student at Milligan while I was a student at Emmanuel and our families go way back. During those three years she was like a fifth sister, and Meghan (who was two or three years old back then) looked up to her.

Richard graduated with a Masters degree from Johnson Bible College last week and Helen accompanied him to the states. It was great to see them. They both work with Jainta India Missions. Helen is a doctor for the state during her day job, but helps out in the countryside during her spare time. Richard is growing into an evangelist and leader. It was great to see them both.

Meghan and Helen, together again! Helen talked to her about life in the mission field and gave her the inside scoop on what it's like.

Uncle Aaron loves being around Marcus, Olivia, and Marie.
And Claire and Allison and the other cousins (who aren't pictured)I was briefly reunited with my old '52 Chevy truck. It should be back in Tennessee sometime this summer. I sure miss it. The girls and I went on a joy ride--though they were just a little unnerved by the lack of seat belts.Anna, Cora, and Meghan with their Grandpa.
We made it back on Saturday night and prepared for a great Mother's Day.
