Emily and I had such a wonderful time in our last visit to Eleuthera. It was probably the best trip to the island yet. Although our time was extremely packed with our goals for the trip, we found that amazingly we fit everything into our schedule and then some.

Perhaps the largest blessing we had was our time of fellowship with the Foxes as they graciously allowed us to stay in their spare room. We were always friends with Brad and Alicia, but this trip allowed us to really get to know one another better and discover that we all have similar philosophies of ministry for the Training Center and CMA.

We also were privileged to spend some quality time with Teaching Coordinator Dave Hawkins. He and I have e-mail and talked on the phone frequently, but this was our first time to really fellowship together. Dave has some extremely insightful thought on both the teaching and training of Bahamians, and also the future of Caribbean Ministries. We really enjoyed the time we got to spend with Dave.

Our overall time with the missionaries was simply wonderful and refreshing. It’s so great when your prayers are answered, and you see how God has sovereignly arranged for His exactly gifted servants to “fill-out” His team for His mission. We are so thankful for the time we got to spend with Brad, Alicia, Tristan (the Foxes’ little boy), Dave, and the Weinbergers.

Next, our time with our Bahamian friends was incredibly encouraging. Not only did each of them remember us, but we were frequently invited over for lunches, dinners, and even sleep-overs. It seemed that had we an entire month on the island, we still wouldn’t have had time to squeeze in all invitations from Bahamians.
