Hey all!
Today was another great day up in Savane Mole. Despite being out yesterday, I was back to normal and ready to go. (Thanks for the prayers!) We started the day off with a great breakfast as usual and hit the road again with more surveys.
At around 12 all the kids were out of school and we made our way over to the local soccer field. (It seems that I’ve become the kid with the soccer balls.) Donnie tested out his skills as goalie and actually ended up doing quite well. Even our translators decided to join in on the fun. When it was time for VBS we headed back to the school and Karen taught a great lesson on Jesus’ love of children. As soon as it was over it started to rain the hardest it had since we’ve been here. So we loaded up anyway and made the ride back.
Thanks again for all your prayers and support. I hope things are going well and my love goes out to all. The people we’re meeting have really opened our eyes so please pray that we take the things that we’ve learned here and truly live a changed life.
Best wishes,
Love Austin

Hey my beautiful family…love you guys and miss you like crazy. Thanks to all you guys who are sacrificing so I can be here. Thanks for your prayers. We are having a great time, a heartbreaking time, and an exhausting time! But we are, as Jody says, “Tired for Jesus.” Be glad to see you so keep praying for us…Love Donnie and Daddy.
