Up the Colorado River

Fifty minutes (or so) from Eagle, CO is a little bend in the Colorado River where Burn Baptist Church is located. Burns Baptist supports our family and ministry and we were reporting back to them what God has been doing since we were last with them.

(Above) I am standing on the deck of the church that overlooks the Colorado River (the one that flows all the way down through the Grand Canyon and out to Baja California (click on map to the right for larger view).

(Below) On the drive up to the church, Pastor Dunston took us off the main road and up to a fault line that is not well known. God's handiwork and creation is amazing to study and see. It must have been something to have been around and observe how God drastically changed the earth after the Biblical flood.





Before and after the service, the children played Carpetball with the pastor's grandchildren. Carpetball is one of the boys favorite games, and I have promised to make them one once we get to Chile.


Kristi supervised the kids while I was setting up the projector and display table.

There was a pretty good turn out for a Tuesday night and we enjoyed our time getting to know our supporters in a better way. There were several hunters visiting from GA at the service. After talking to one of them who works for Evoshield Sports Protection, we swapped business cards.

Check out their website HERE. There might be a time in the future when we can receive some soccer shin guards for children in Chile. One of my dreams is to start a soccer camp that teaches young kids about the fundamentals of the game while weaving in character qualities (hard work, good sportsmanship, patience) and the Gospel.
