Don’t you love seeing God use the gifts and opportunities of His children, all working together to share His Word/Truth with those who haven’t yet heard? While praising God for how He is using the VOICE ministries in both the Philippines and East Africa, we are so encouraged to see/experience how God is using other ministries right here in our secularized Western Culture to present the Truth. That’s what Ruth & I are enjoying right now as we vacation/travel together. Our roles as navigator (Ruth) and driver (Laura) are strangely familiar from past decades, ha. We have rated our Air B and B’s along the way from good to delightful, and especially have appreciated the use of their kitchens in our travels. Being together again has been wonderful and all events thus far have more than met our expectations.
Our first destination was Pennsylvania to take in the Daniel production at Sight & Sound. Wow, talk about using the arts to bring glory to God’s Name and share His Word—an excellent and powerful drama presentation of Daniel’s life, weaving in Daniel’s prophecies which include the coming of the Messiah/the Gospel. Our B&B hosts were committed Christians and the fellowship was uplifting.
From
there, we drove to northern Kentucky where we are as we write this,
to take in the two attractions put together by the group, “Answers
in Genesis.” Yesterday we spent about 8 hours trying to take in as
much as possible in the Creation Museum. How encouraging to see God’s
truth presented in creative and dramatic visual ways being passed on
to the next generation. Evolution and humanist lies are being exposed
in powerful and convincing ways. We have both wished for greater
capacity to comprehend and retain the excellent content we have been
privileged to enjoy.

Today (Sunday) we joined a nearby wonderful Bible-believing/preaching church for an excellent Father’s Day sermon which was easily applicable to all of us.
Plans are to spend most of the next two days at The Ark Encounter, focused especially on the undeniable evidence that there was a world-wide flood that changed our world in such dramatic ways. No doubt, we’re in for more mind-boggling presentations of God’s truth! And then we’ll begin the long drive back to New Hampshire, where, Lord willing, we’ll pick up Beth Baleke at the airport. A couple days later, I (Laura) and Beth will drive back to New Brunswick for a full time of visits and ministry. Ruth will begin helping in a week-long VBS at her home church.
