Joel Vestal is here with his 2 wonderful kids, 1 amazing wife Elise and two more friends – Jason & Ellen. The only thing he left behind in Thailand was his beard 🙂 Joel and I had a good time catching up yesterday (with Zayd too). Claris from our church did a wonderful job taking…

Lead us Lord … as you’ve done so the last 6 years starting from April 1, 2000!
