Yes we have been breathing in the wintery-beauty of the blue sky, green grasscountry of upper East Tennessee; in th i s uncrowded and u nhur ri ed l and of themountains where there is plenty of room in today s world for the treasures ofyesterday. The colorful birds and active squirrels in our backyard have beendaily delights, not to mention the PE EFUL hideaways and serenity experiencednow rather than the heavy smog fast pace, and loud noises of Mexico City.Perhaps we are experiencing afresh America s f i rs t frontier, and we invite youto come vis i t us d uring our and Tennessee s Homecoming 86 We ll be lookinqfo r you

Tina and Heath are adjusting well to Sullivan South High School (the Rebels),while Bambi and Heidi are really enjoying their new Rock Springs ElementarySchool (the l i t t le Rebels), also in the county/country next to the high school.

Trips have taken us to Indiana three times already in 1986. We anticipatebeing again in Indiana, Virginia, Missouri, California, Ohio, West Virginia,Pennsylvania, Colorado, and Tennessee; so , your prayers for our s af e t ra ve lwould be one of our priority requests just now. We look forward to seeing you.

Mr. and Mrs. Collins Chew o ld f ri en ds , have also answered one of our prayersby p rov id ing anothe r re l iable automobile for P au le tt e to use when Steve i s outof town overnight. You see, your important role in a prayer partnership withus continues to be one of th e keys that sustains and encourages us in themidst of constant change. Please keep i t up today and tomorrow(s)

As we remember yesterday s work and experience today s blessings , pray for usas we prepare fo r tomorrow s l i f e in C h ri st J es us .
