The airport, a birthday, sliding off a road. Wow! Glad everything is going well. Dawn, love the picture of you with the little girl on your lap. That is why you are there! From what I have heard from others, it is difficult to leave those kids. Plant the seeds while you are there! We will continue to pray for you! Be safe!

Especially the ones of that bonita Sonia. We are keeping you covered in prayer. (We will try to cover the knees better in the days to come.) Just remember, as Emperor Brody would say, Rome wasn't built in a day. Don't try to do too much. Stay safe and let the Lord do the work through you. We love you all. Tu Hermano en Cristo, Jim PS. No Coma la Lechuga. Ha Ha Hola Hermanos e Hermanas,

Was that an angel you met in the Texas airport? Please keep being bold and courageous and you will continue to be blessed by those God encounters. Are all the children so beautiful? We will continue to pray for a productive work week and lots of opportunities for each one of you to use your gifts to touch the people around you for Jesus. Jay and Kelly, behave!

After close examination, Cam and I think the bloody leg belongs to Wes. Daleen, however, was a close second guess! Take Care, Dee Hi Team, You are being thought of more than you know.

What a joy to see the pictures from Piedra Menuda....and the children! I love the picture of Kelly and Madeline (or Melanie? we were calling her both names while we were there!) She is such a sweetie! And, Caroline, too. And...what's with the picture of the scraped knee? Who is that?? That brought back some memories for me, too, right, Sonia? Seeing these pictures makes me homesick for Nicaragua! Praying that your lives will be touched in ways beyond your imagination as you serve the people in Nicaragua!

All four girls in this house have been faithfully praying for the whole group, especially a certain member they're particulary found of. Livi keeps praying for "Daddy's airplane high in the sky". The girls get extra excited when Daddy, Grandpa or Uncle Dubby show up in a photo. We pray this will bless each of your lives and the lives of those you are serving. Work hard boys!

I’ve started to reassign rooms so that they make more sense. Since I have a new title, as mentioned in my last update, I felt that my existing office didn’t quite live up to my magnificence. Therefore I made a couple of room swaps. My new office seats four-hundred and fifty, has a great stage and a big projector screen. Obviously, my old office would be too small to hold services in, so we’ll use Pastor Dale’s office since it’s much larger. Sure, it’ll still be a little cramped, but that will just make people feel like we have a big crowd. I know this is a big sacrifice for Pastor Dale, but he’s a man and he can handle it. It even says that on his new office door “Men”. By the way, in order to streamline our accounting, I’ve had new offering envelopes printed that include the budget code for youth ministries right on the front to take the guess work out of where money should go. I’m amazed no one thought of this earlier! Well, I’d love to write more but the photographer is waiting to take my picture for the new wall mural that’s being hung in the lobby. Be safe and I hope to see you all soon! ~The Emperor Church Improvement Update #2
