Chicago

We traveled to Chicago to meet with Grace Pointe Church in Naperville. We have known their missions pastor, Dan Harder, for 25 years. And he has been recruiting us to be missionaries for 10 years. While in Naperville, we enjoyed meeting the other pastors and elders, and we were exuberant about their history of supporting and sending church planters all around the world. Grace Pointe is going to be our administrative church when we leave for Central America as Church Planters in August. Juan Carlos and Emily Tellez and their two children spent a lot of time with us giving us advice on Honduran culture and sharing their experiences of being missionaries in Latin America. We appreciated their input and Reagan fell in love with their daughter. My sister, Jodi and her family also live in the Chicago area, so we had a wonderful time seeing them. The kids had a blast playing together and the weather was shockingly gorgeous for March in the Windy City. We even spent an afternoon hiking at Starved Rock State Park. Pictured below you will see the crazy antics of Reagan's cousins.
