Bonjour!

This morning, Joe went soul winning. Kendall was the only other one who showed up. So, they visited some of the regulars.

Joe came home and got Gilbert. They went to measure the generator. Joe thought that we might need to build a stand for it. But, Brother Taylor said that we don’t need to. Joe has several guys lined up to go help him lift it on to a trailer on Monday morning and bring it to the house.

After lunch, Gilbert went down for a nap. He was tired. Danny was awake for awhile. Then, Danny and I took a nap.

Missions With the Consfords

Joe went at 3:00 to meet with some of the men from the church. They went to look at the land that is a possibility for the church. Joe will have a meeting with some people on Monday concerning the land. Please pray about that meeting.

This afternoon, I did some work on the computer. Gilbert played with his cars in by the computer while Danny slept.

This evening, Joe gave Gilbert a hair cut. Then, I gave Joe a hair cut. Right in the middle of Joe’s hair cut, the clippers quit working. He took them apart several times; they would work for a second and then quit again. Then, they wouldn’t work at all. So, I finished with the scissors. Joe was a little worried, but it turned out okay.

A demain,

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, and Danny
