22 April 2011 Update!



Thank you so much for your prayers! The video above is from a ministry Liesa was a part of earlier this week with a church from Virginia.

We are enjoying the Easter weekend with some of our missionary family. Skate Park, the Zoo, and some bowling are the plans.

And, Liesa's parents arrive Monday night for a visit! We're excited about that.

Have a wonderful Resurrection Weekend.

Jeff, Liesa, Haylee and Jackson.
