Ark Encounter

We visited the Ark Encounter in KY May 14.  This is the view of the Ark from the bus that takes us from the ticket/parking lot area

We noticed that the majority of people in line for tickets were older, gray-headed folks like us.  Still don't consider myself as being 65 and among the "senior" crowd now   :-)  

This is so huge!   

These are some of the ceramic jars used to hold grain for the animals.  

Days of Creation banners 

Surprise! We met the Halsey's there.  They helped us alot at the beginning of our deputation 30 years ago.  It has been several years since we last saw them.  

The view of the park from the top of the Ark.  We had a special tour; the general public is not permitted up here yet.  There are lots of plans for expanding/improving the Ark attractions in the near future.  Currently there's a big Children's park due to open the end of May.  

It's on the right of the picture--the blue play equipment. 

View from the 4th floor down 

Look up from the first floor to the top.  The structure is amazing. The hugs logs were from a dead forest in the west.  

Mother's Day PM

We went to Heritage Baptist Church in Woodbridge, Virginia.   Below, Henry gave a report of our new work and showed our video.  

We reconnected with the Haynes Family.  Have not seen Phyllis, the mom, in years.  So nice to reconnect.

Pastor then proposed the church give us a sizeable amount of money for the new church plant in Kato City.  It was a surprise and a special blessing.  

After church, Pastor, his wife, and parents took us out to dinner at Cracker Barrel.  We talked for a long time.  Then we went to the Ramada Inn that had a room for us.  Very nice.  

Maryland on Mother's Day

Welcome home!

We met Pastor and Mrs. Dickens for the first time and stayed in their home at Cross County Baptist Church in Waldorf, Maryland.  They are such giving people and a joy to be around.  We heard lots of stories...

Henry preached in the afternoon service.  

The Dickens have many grandkids and a ton of Legos.  Amazing.  

I like all the little people lined up here.   

We met Tony and Sharon Burnette and their two sons

Peggy Elgin goes to this church and it was such a surprise to see her there; we were not expecting that.

Peggy's oldest son, Eddie, and his family also attend
