Like a deer in headlights....
Going to be in the Twin Cities July 2nd? I’ve been asked to do the message that day at church. I don’t know how it goes at your church, but at ours, when ever our Pastor takes time off, and there is a guest speaker, the pews appear a little less full. Hopefully this is not an indictment of the speaking abilities of us Lay speakers. So, if you happen to be passing through, I’m sure there will be room.On a different note, this Friday, our sixteen year old daughter leaves for a month and a half stay in Guatemala. She is going to serve at the orphanage we serve at. Last summer she went with a team for 80 days in Gambia, Africa. This time, although she will be traveling with another team on the way down, she is basically going on her own. She also will be traveling home alone, which means going through customs alone. The good news is she has done this a number of times before, so she pretty much knows the drill. She has also been to Guatemala twice, so she knows what to expect, and also knows many of the boys already. She will be helping in the school they run, as well as doing household chores. Please be in prayer for her, that God will protect her, and keep her focused on Him while she is there. Prayers for my wife and I would also be appreciated. While it is nice to have some “alone time”, it is hard not to worry about our daughter, especially when she is so far away. But we have trust in the Dvoraks to keep her safe, and complete faith in our Lord to protect her. So, we put it in God’s hands.
Thank you in advance for your prayers, and may God bless each of you today, and everyday.

Let's see if blogger is behaving...for now...
I will keep your daughter in my prayers for the duration of her trip! I pray safety and love surrounds her and that she has favor in customs and in all her flights! What a great example you've been to her of mission work!
And you...I'm so excited to hear about your 'fill-in' at church! How exciting. You seem perfectly suited to take on that role! Do I still say "break a leg"? like in theater.
Prayers are being said for you all!
Here are some links that I believe will be interested
Very pretty design! Keep up the good work. Thanks.
