Day 39 - June 26 - Beardstown to Lincoln, IL

Day 39 - June 26 - Beardstown to Lincoln, IL (68 miles)

At about 5 AM, Brenda and I gave Tabitha a hug and a kiss and sent her off to Houston.  Brenda may see her again this summer, but I probably will not.  It's never easy saying good-bye!

Noah picked  a fine day to rejoin the Gloritrek team!  Not long after we said good-bye to Pastor Mike Courson, Stacy Young and Brenda; it started to rain.  It rained really hard for a good 30-40 miles.  We were all drenched.  About half-way to Lincoln, Noah's knee began to hurt, and by the time we arrived in Lincoln, Noah was ready to call it quits.  He really wanted to rejoin us on Gloritrek , but his knee is just not ready to go.  We hope he can try again in a week or two.  Sorry, buddy!

We arrived at Lincoln Christian University, where I graduated from the seminary way back in 1995!  It's too bad we couldn't arrange a Gloritrek event for one of the churches here in Lincoln or LCU.  It would have been nice to be here while school was still in session.  Perhaps one day we can return and share some of our experiences and insights from Gloritrek or church planting in the 10/40 Window.

Tomorrow it is on to Fisher, where we served for 5 years prior to leaving for Taiwan.  We will have two nights there, with a Gloritrek event on Friday night.  Looking forward to seeing lots of terrific people!

Thanks for praying!
Dave, Luey, Andy and Luey
