Robyn & Hope Update
Hello all.
A quick update on how our two mission workers are doing in tropical Jamaica. We heard from them today that all is well with them, each teams suitcases of supplies made it thru Customs and no one is sick. What great news. The 56 members start their day at 7:00 with God time before breakfast and then off to either construction projects or to one of two schools. Robyn and Hope are at the schools teaching, games and also story time.
An update will be given tomorrow after we talk to them tonight.
PRAY for each one of them. The first night, a storm knocked the power out. No big deal, except for the fact that they only get power for a few hours in the evening anyway.....Robyn said that taking a shower with only the light from a small flashlight was not what she thought she would experience during her trip this year. At least they had a flashlight.
WIll update this tomorrow.

Fall Update
Hello Blog world!
We are all going crazy with ballet winding down, cheerleading starting up and the holidays moving ever so quickly to their arrival dates.
Several weeks ago, we went to visit the Funny/Limit Farm to see the girls participating in the wagon train adventure, Ho and also the Bear working. What a wonderful trip it was to see everyone and to tour the Biltmore house. Pictures can be viewed at: http://gallery.mac.com/troberts_vp .
There are several different picture events at the site. Please check often to see what is going on with us.
We are now 7 days away from Robyn and Hope heading to Galina, Jamaica for a huge mission trip. They are to assist again with the elementary school, nursing home and general showing of God's love. They are nervous about forgetting anything or something that will be needed during their time at the school or out. They will get to have a little time the last day before heading home the Saturday after turkey day. We are sending a camera with Robyn to take pictures of her journey and to create a storybook for when she and Hope return to share with everyone.
Talk with you soon,
Us
