Goodbye to Grandad

 
We have had an amazing two weeks with Grandad! It was such a blessing and encouragement to us to have him here.  
 
 
To be able to share him with our friends here and introduce him to what our lives are like here.
 
 
To partake in daily life together while touching and being touched by the special people that surround us here. To be a part of our community.
 
 
To make new friends and experience new customs. He did a pretty good job at teaching a few American customs as well.
 
 
To love on his kids and grand kids and make special memories for all of us. We are so thankful for the visit and those who made it possible for him to make the trip. We love you Grandad and hope you enjoy your safari and have a safe travel home!

Shannon & Justin,

We have enjoyed seeing pics and reading about Bennett's (your Dad's) adventures on Pemba! Thanks for sharing and we continue to pray for your mission there in Tanzania......so exciting to see what God is doing thru you there and so cool to see Bennett immersing himself for a weeks into the culture. I can totally see the joy of the Lord on your faces and can't wait for future updates. In HIS love, Betsy Baker (your personal banker :)
