Spice in the Soup: (extras for the readers)
Dear you,
Do you know the "muffin man?" Evidently that's my new nickname in the plumbing world. A couple of weeks ago i spent my lunch break with a homeless guy in Greensboro, NC. "Bubba" and i had a good conversation on as he shared with me from his surplus in gifts of food including a cup of coffee, a Hardees Thickburger, and some Panera Bread Co. muffins (hince, the nickname). I was dressed in some tattered work clothes so he even suggested a shelter i could go sleep at.
This was my first Thanksgiving with family since 2005. It was so stinkin' great. My wife has been so accommodating as we spend the holidays with my side of the family. However, we will be taking a much needed roadtrip around the country in January to visit her side as well. Covering over 6000 miles, we hope to pass through Chattanooga, Dallas, Las Vegas, and Key West. I'm really looking forward to this. I hope God will bless out times with my new family.
In the meantime Racheal and i have been buzzing around in North Caroline at a few churches, sharing about our experiences overseas. It's been fun meeting other parts of the Body who want to support and encourage missions.

PrayeRequests:
- Please pray for my coaching. I'm in a serious spot to be a role model to these boys. I'd love introduce them to my Lord.
- Please pray for Racheal and i as we learn what marriage is. I really believe this trip in January will give us some much needed quality time in the car to not have any burdens on our plate except keeping a travel budget.
- Nick Diaz, a Peruvian who just finished the Xtreme Team training to become a missionary, just received a gut check. He has only been a believer a few years and was in trouble with the law before. He has already served 2 years for this issue, but was re-trialed and has been sentenced to 30 years. His fiancee is of course devastated. Before the sentencing Nick shared that he is prepared to be a missionary in the prison like Paul. Please pray for Nick as they try to reverse this sentencing and also prepare for his new mission assignment from the Lord, wherever it may take him.
†il the whole world hears,
