Fun in the Family

One of the privileges of traveling the way we do is the amount of family time that is afforded us.  We travel together, school together, minister together, sing together and lots of other "together" things.  Tim and I also want to make sure that we have fun together.  While fun things can happen most anywhere it is easier to do when we get a "not going anywhere today and no service tonight" day.  These family times are super valuable in keeping "fun in the family".   We have a little bit of that time as I write this update.

For those of you who know the Tim Thompson family, you know that we're a house "divided". ;)  I (Brittany) was reared in the land of cotton, tobacco, soybean, pecans and peaches where, yes, we enjoy eating boiled peanuts and drinking tea COLD and as sweet as one can stand it, and my husband hails from the beautiful state of Michigan where you can enjoy one of the most beautiful Fall sceneries in September and October and skip rocks in the beautiful Great Lakes.    As I write, the men of the house are kayaking in the Wilkes (my maiden name) pond, and you've not lived until you've experienced Wilkes Lane and the adventures awaiting!  Seth and Samuel love to be at Mimi and Papa's.  Where else can you bounce around the pastures in junky trucks or the Kawasaki Mule or better yet, drive around on the little John Deere tractor that Papa especially "beefed up" for Seth.  These happenings are exclusively Southern!!!

We leave tomorrow morning for Land O Lakes, FL, and are very eager for the Lord to work in a mighty way in the services.  Tim will be preaching at First Baptist Church nightly and in the Christian school throughout the week.  Please do pray with us and for us that 1.) we would be a people that have prepared our hearts to seek the Lord (II Chr. 12:14) and that 2.) lost souls would be invited to the services and be convinced of their need to trust Christ. 

We appreciate your prayers and friendship,

Tim, Brittany, Seth, Samuel
