Another year i n th e se rv ic e o f the King i s drawing t o a c lose . Fo rus ha s been a time for t r ave l , renewing acquaintances, and college study.

We ha d a most enjoyable Summer i n Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, an dI l l ino is . o s t i l l reca l l pleasant memories of vis i t s in your homes churches,and C h ri st ia n s er vi ce camps. Thankyou for l e t t i n g us share th i s time with you.

Moving plans went p re t ty much according to schedule, except tookan extra couple of days to get the packing and loading done. e f inal ly saidgoodtye to Urbana H I , August 18th, After a short stop i n Lincoln, H I tosay goodbye to fr iends there , we headed West, Charles an d I (Wil li am) s ha re dthe driving, taking turns in the U-Haul truck and sta t ion wagon. After onenight on th e road we reached Hays l a t e afternoon on the 19th , Our newhouse was aH cleaned and ready for us to move r ight in .

Then everything seemed to rush on us a t once; unpacking enrollingthe boys in school arranging our coHege schedule and enrollment and aH theother l i t t le things connected with getting sett led in a new community. Buti t has aH led to our enjoying l i f e here in Hays very much. The boys l ikethe smaller schools and small-town atmosphere. They a re ac tiv e in the youthgroup a t church, too. Jean and I are both enrolled in coHege, 1:^ 18 hourload o f d ra ft in g, woodwork, math science, and history i s Just about morethan I can handle , Next semester I in tend to take a few hours l e s s an d not

be quite so rushed Jean is taking 5 hours in the speech department workingtoward a Masters i n t h a t f ie ld

Spealcing of Jean reminds me tha t she i s getting around almost normally in recent weeks. The leg i s healing in fine shape and she is evenwearing shoes again. Sometimes I can hardly detect a limp. Except for faH-ing a couple of times again she i s getting along woH.

e enjoy the let ters you send and are very grateful for your fa i th-f inanc ia l support. Without we would not be able to continue our studies

as wo are. Please accep t these occasional news l e t t e r s i ns te ad of a personaln o t e o f t h a n k s

May wo be drawn closer toge ther i n th e Savior ' s love as we contempla te His coming to earth during this season. May our l ives and service showour gra t i tude to Him throughout the coming New Year.

Glory to God in th e h ig he st , and on earth peace,

In Ch r i s t i a n Love,
