my time in VA
Virginia has been an awesome vacation. Have I said that before? Mama Deane has been an incredibly gracious host whom we will dearly miss.
Last night we had a mini Holy Given reunion as the Walker's, Travis, and Herbert all came over for dinner and some prayer time. I really miss being around hungry Christians who have devoted their lives to their King's service. It is so important to have fellowship with those who are in like mindsets. I bless the Baker's, without whom, none of us would even know each other.
So tonight is our last night in Virginia. I am far from finishing my 'Making Saints' book, but I have made a great dent in it, and have learnt HEAPS!

Tomorrow afternoon, we make the trek by plane from Norfolk - Atlanta - Albuquerque. It will be great to see more people whom Iris Ministries have connected. I cannot wait to get back to the desert!

Staying with Mama Deane is one of the best times ever! It is such a refuge here in Yorktown, that words can't adequately express how good it has been. Jenny has been hard at work, plugging away at her church history book, while I have been trodding through a book on how the catholic church goes about it's saint making process. Fascinating stuff. If you haven't heard of a lady called Anne Catherine Emmerich, I suggest you look her up. She may have had visions that fill in the spaces that aren't mentioned in the Bible. Unreal. Some of her visions can be read -->HERE<--. While you're looking her up, check out another potential saint called Alexandrina Maria da Costa, who died just over 50 short years ago! This lady lived soley on Communion for the last 13 years of her life! No food, no water, just Communion! And that wasn't even the crazy part of her life.
There is much to be discovered in this life. And much that can only be revealed to us.

Jenny & I have but 3 more nights here in Virginia. I pray we make the most of them.
