Awaken to Kingdom Reality

This is the title of our missions theme for the year in the Alliance.  The subtitle is Always be Ready, Always be Investing, Always be Serving.  I just read a good article by our former National Church President that explains why.  You can read it here: Maranatha!

Okanogan Valley Alliance Church

The whole family enjoyed a great visit with a very supportive church over the weekend.  

We enjoyed fellowship over lots of meals.

And enjoyed exploring Omak Lake on Saturday.

We even discovered a rattle snake slithering under a bush.  It was moving slowly for the cool weather.

The lake is about 5 miles long.  It was peaceful to hear the waves on the shore.

Thanks for your partnership and support!

Johanna Learns to Ski!

Her friend invited her along with a parent to chaperone.

Some time on the bunny hill...

And then up the chair lift and skied all the way down!

Thank God it snowed half the day, making for great learning conditions.

The sun was shining at the end of a great day!

Spring Bike Ride

Jeremy got out on the bike with brother Jake on a nice spring day.

With Mount Stuart (my middle namesake)

With Jake in Thorp, WA

And again with a new breed of apple called Jazz from the fruit stand there, our only fuel on a 40 mile ride.
