On the Road Again...

This is going to be a short post. But we just wanted to let everyone know that we are hitting the road again tomorrow, this time traveling from Ohio to Texas. We have had an awesome time of seeing God work through our time here in Ohio, but we are going to hold on to that story for our next 'Update'. We are very much looking forward to sharing that story with you.
We thank you all for your prayers.

In the love of Christ,
The Kenners

A Short Visit with Brad and Amber...

...and Zoe and Piper - The Jones family!


We are so close to Michigan, so we took the opportunity to shoot on up to Lansing for a visit with our teammates, the Jones - Brad, Amber, Zoe, and Piper.

We spent two days together meeting their family and friends. The kids had a great time hanging out, jumping on beds, and playing with Zoe's pet turtle which she caught in her yard. And the grown-ups enjoyed spending time together talking about the plans and dreams the Lord has given us for the next 25 (or so) years of our lives!

This is the last time we will see the Jones family until September when, Lord willing, we will meet them at LAX for our flight out to Vanuatu!



We are just so amazed by how the Lord brought all of us together, the Jones, the Richards, Laura, and us, and how He continues to equip and provide for us to do His work. We are grateful for the bonds between each of us that He continues to develop and strengthen. Please be in prayer with us for continued team unity!

Arrival In Ohio...


We arrived in Gahanna (Columbus), Ohio late last night and are enjoying getting caught up with old friends! Our travel went well. Everyone worries about us cramming into a Honda Civic for so many long miles, but believe me when I say that the Kenner family has the road trip down to an art! (Besides, Aunt Chris gifted the kids with Nintendo DS's, which means many hours of quiet entertainment! Thank you Aunt Chris!)

Here are a few pics from the road...



Thank you all for your prayers for safe travel. The Lord was watching over us the whole way!

7,000 miles!

Well, we are working on getting things wrapped up here in Washington before we hit the road May 28th. We mapped it out and figured that we will put on well over 7,000 miles over the next two months. If we are going to be in your neck of the woods , give us a call! Check it out...


A/G - Shelton,
WA
B/F - Forsyth, MT
C - Gahanna, OH
D - Houston, TX
E - Lawrenceville, GA
F - Forsyth, MT
G - Shelton, WA


Good thing we enjoy road trips! And at $4 a gallon, we are thankful for the 40 miles per gallon we enjoy with our Honda Civic!


The Lord has given us many opportunities here in our home town to share our passion for God’s mission to build His church, and glorify Himself among the nations. We’ve met and gotten to know many new friends and taken the opportunity to reconnect with old friends as well. Many of whom the Lord used to nurture and disciple us in Him way back when. For fun we’ve been taking nostalgic trips down memory lane to show Grace and Josh our old stomping grounds. Oh how the memories come flooding back.


We look forward to the next two months of traveling as the Lord continues to draw together our support family. Pray with us that during this time He would stir the hearts of many to be a part of the work to build His church in Vanuatu. To the praise of His glory!
