April Adventures

Howdy Folks! I apologize that this post is so awfully late! I really have no excuse, even though we have been having computer troubles this month! We could use your prayers, especially Mom, because one of the major things that happened in April was that her computer (the main Noble Maritime computer) crashed, causing the loss of a lot of stuff, including all her photos. Betsy and I have also had both our school computers fail recently, and neither have been fully fixed, though thankfully they are usable again! And Dad's computer (the other Noble Maritime computer) will not connect to the internet for some reason! You really realize how much you depend on computers when they don't work for you! :-P However, because of her challenges, Mom has almost been convinced to just replace her computer with a Mac! That would be a new leaning curve for her, but hopefully worth it if it reduces the risk of crashing! Anyway, aside from that, April was good! I (Julie) finished my two online classes and enjoyed a week-long spring break, and Josh is back for a few weeks so we are enjoying having our brother around! Last weekend the three of us went camping on Hope Island and had a blast!


Here is April's newsletter - God's Top Priority for You! A note from Dad: If the Kingdom of God has three main provinces or states, what would those chunks of real estate be called? Remember the scripture: The Kingdom of God isn't a matter of eating or drinking but of "righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit"? (Rom 14:17) In the attached letter, we address one of these crucial ingredients and its empowering characteristics. Will you join us in pursuing JOY?!!!

Have a blessed spring!
