Here are some photos from the road to Liberal on Saturday.
Somewhere between Pratt and Liberal--gorgeous skies!
As the sun set, again between Pratt and Liberal I was struck by the beauty--God is such a great artist!

While on the Road...
I was blessed to travel to visit Liberal Friends Church, in western Kansas this weekend. I had a wonderful time spending some time with a friend from college (she was my Resident Assistant int he dorms), her husband and her wonderful two children. It was also great to visit Friends at Liberal, and get to fellowship with them.

Eagles
On my last leg of my journey home from Evangelical Friends Mission Board Meetings today, on my flight from Atlanta to Wichita, I had an interesting encounter.
I was on the plane, by the window next to a friendly lady, and on the other side of her was a man that had been fairly quiet the first leg of the journey. At one time, he spoke to the flight attendant about the headphones on the plane not meeting American Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements and asked about leaving feedback. This man, though disabled, was smiling and friendly and winking constantly.
At one point, the lady next to me complimented the ring on his finger. As he explained the ring, he pointed out the Eagle on the ring, saying God made us to soar like eagles. He pointed out that eagles have mind and body, but humans additonally have the Holy Spirit. He commented that eagles have to leave their nest though.
This struck this eaglette, as these were words I needed to hear. Although God is calling me to leave my nest (Kansas) I am still in God's care and must trust Him every step of the way.

Hello from Ohio!!
Just saying hello from Ohio where I am attending the Evangelical Friends Mission (EFM) Board Meetings. (If you want to see pictures and you have Facebook, check out photos of me on facebook...otherwise I will post some here when I return home).
It is a blessing to be here, to share how God has called me to Rwanda, to learn more about EFM, and also to hear more about Rwanda! I feel blessed to be able to spend time talking with Brad and Chelsea, who will be returning to Rwanda sometime in the next several months.
Please pray for those here at the meetings, that business may continue to be carried out and that all have safe trips home.
