Central Baptist, where we have been attending church since late March, ordained their new pastor this evening. Pastor Omar Segovia has taken over the leadership since Pastor Jon Moody and his family were sent out as missionaries to Ivory Coast in Africa the first part of June. The Segovia family lives across the circle from us and we have gotten to spend quite a bit of time together. Our kids are even the same ages! They are a neat family and definitely being used in mighty ways for God's kingdom not only at Central, but also in our own family. Chris and Omar have spent countless hours praying and planning for Central's future (and some time playing XBOX too!). Their children, Elijah-3, Keziah-4, and Titus-4 mos, play well with Hailey and Noah and have easily become their best playmates. Jana and I have also gotten to know each other pretty well and I have really enjoyed getting to see her heart as she seeks to be a godly wife, mom, and role model for women around her. We are blessed to have friends like the Segovias and Central Baptist is also greatly blessed to have such passionate leadership. Please keep this special family in your prayers as they seek to lead Central Baptist towards all that God has for her future.

Tour De Nebraska 2008
Chris returned alive and well from his 3rd consecutive 5-day bike tour of the sand hills of Nebraska. He had a great time peddling, sweating, tent camping, and surviving hailstorms with his dad, Nick (brother), and Dan (family friend). He rode 250 miles this year. He had a great time and said it was the best tour so far! He hasn't biked at home again yet, but he is planning to bike to Omaha from Kansas City one of these days before summer is over! We'll keep you posted so you can come cheer him on! J
