Deputation has taken our little family to the beautiful state of Alaska!  We arrived on November 1st and were in our very first meeting the next day.  Pastor Hamman and Independent Baptist Church in Wasilla invited us to come to their Wednesday evening service. The people were so friendly, it was like we had already known them from years past.  What a privilege to meet these dear folks!  Later that week they also took us sightseeing around Wasilla and provided a violin for my wife to play while we visit churches in the state.  We’re so thankful for the people the Lord puts in our path.  What a great first meeting!
