OCTOBER 14 UPDATE

Greetings Saints,

Just a quick update on our western journey.

We had a wonderful time in Kalispell, Montana, last week, teaching a hungry group enrolled in the River Church School of Ministry. We ministered in two long evening sessions and we both felt a very strong anointing as we spoke and prayed over all the students and staff - about 40 total.

From there we spent the weekend in Spokane with Ken and Valencia, Micah, Karis and Moriah. We watched two great soccer games and can easily tell that our grandkids are destined for World Cup competition some day. Moriah is only a few months old, but she will someday be a beauty queen, without a doubt. On Sunday we got to sit and enjoy Valencia do an amazing job leading an incredible worship team and then hear Ken preach an outstanding message that touched us all. Of course, like all news media, we are totally unbiased. Seriously though, it was an awesome service.

Since Sunday evening we have been with Brenda's mom, in Soap Lake, Washington. She is slowly but painfully adjusting to life without her husband. Even though he had been in a care center for almost three years, she always spent several hours a day with him. At 87 years old, she has a tough time making the adjustment. While in Soap Lake we have also had a good visit with Brenda's sister, Darlene.

Tomorrow, we return to Canada, this time Kamloops, B.C., for two meetings in two different locations. From there we go to Vancouver, where we will spend a few days with Andrea, our daughter, and her husband, Harvey. We will also visit Fred, my oldest brother, and his wife, Marty, along with my neice, Heather, and her husband, Simon.

From Vancouver we will head south for meetings in Lakeview, Oregon. After that we visit Redding, California, where Tim and Nathan are in school, and then Sacramento, where Barbie and Caleb live.

After that we will minister in Farmington, New Mexico, and El Paso, Texas. After a couple of more stops on the way, we hope to get back to Illinois by mid November. Please keep praying for strength and endurance.

Our team at home is doing a wonderful job keeping the ministry alive in Illinois and the midwest region. Check our websites for updates on seminars, etc.

Much love to you all,

Ben, Brenda, Family and Team
