No time to really explain these photos or this life, but it's been a full JUNE so far. Joy of hellos and grief of goodbyes, milestones and friends, blood and life and death.  And swirling thoughts, unprocessed, untyped, with this blog sorely neglected.

This is a desperate plea for prayer as we head to Uganda today for a week.  Since Travis' diagnosis of cancer and need for chemotherapy, our team there has been small and  besieged.  We are going to hopefully encourage them for a week.  In the meantime we've had some hard news from our students, and we know many needy and difficult conversations await us in the next few days with people.  PLEASE PRAY for grace to flow through us to those we love.  For supernatural wisdom as we listen and respond in love.

Pray also for our kids, home with Luke as they begin exams, and Anna Linhart who will watch over the flock!

Thanks.
