Well since that very first Christmas I think travel has been a part of the holiday. This year will be no different for our family. We will be traveling to the Binhamton area to visit relatives for a couple days.

Praise the Lord-we got our van fixed finally after a six month wait. I ended up taking it to another garage and he was able to fix it in less than a week. Go figure. Needless to say we will not be taking any of our vehicles to the first garage again. Ever.

On the ministry front--Pray for Climbing for Christ's Mission to Haiti scheduled for mid February. I have been trying to make some contacts for our trip into Lesotho, Africa as well, pray for those. The Board approved a small salary for me starting in July (if we have money). Speaking of "if we have money" Climbing for Christ now accepts online donations using paypal. Check our website (see links to right) then look for "Helping Hands" on the right side of the main page.


Thanks for all of your prayers and support. Have a very Merry Christmas!
