Missouri....

   We are currently in Springfield, Missouri.  We are attending some pre-field training.  We have been refreshed by stories of God's faithfulness in the lives of veteran and new missionaries.  The kids are preparing for their wildnerness adventure training in the woods--they get to sleep in hammocks and are only allowed to take a bar of soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, and a few clothes.  Cole is looking forward to wearing the same clothes and not bathing and Brooklyn is figuring a way to smuggle some shampoo!
