… The Ministry Trip Continues …

As we head North into Michigan- enjoying the hardwood forest, as well as the remoteness…

 

…of the area, as the highway continues on toward the North.

 

We drop down into one of Michigan’s low areas…  We look over to the side of the road… and see a Moose! feeding on swamp reeds! What an awesome sight.

 

We continue heading North, coming into Keweenaw Bay, a bay off Lake Superior…

…and the village of L’Anse, a beautiful setting at the lower tip of “The Copper Country”

We had a nice visit with my Aunt Jenny and her daughter Wanda, reminiscing of days gone by, of the days of old time logging, living in logging camps, of fighting the weather, and enjoying the fellowship of family.

 

Kathy and I had a great time with Wanda’s grand daughter, Jaylah ...

 

A visit with my late sister Callie’s daughter Jamie and her husband Russell on the L’Anse Reservation, a good visit.

A very spectacular area of beauty… looking down on Late Superior…WOW!

It is now time to bid adieu to “The Land of Sky Blue Waters”, Michigan…

…and head for the land of “10,000 lakes”, Minnesota, and Superior’s North Shore.

  

Crossing over from Wisconsin … to…

Minnesota.             

Next week… Lake Superior’s North Shore….

…The Ministry Trip Continues…

   …

As we head West, and into Illinois, the weather seems to

be starting to close in on us…

A dinner meeting with Kathy’s cousin Jeff and his wife Nancy had to be postponed, as we pulled into a rest area . We watched a very heavy thunder-storm, with lots of wind, and a possible tornado pass over..

We did make it to dinner, but, one hour late. We had a wonderful visit with Jeff and Nancy. We took advantage of the weather, to have a long visit. As enjoyable as this was, after a couple of hours, it was time to move along… On into Bloomington/Normal, Ill, about an additional 120 miles where we had motel reservations for the night.

Next morning being Sunday, we attended a Bible Church, a short distance from our motel, a Christ centered service.  After church, we headed North toward …

… Wisconsin.

Arriving in Menomonee Falls, for a Great visit with Kathy’s sister Carol and her husband Victor.

Their daughter Maria, her husband Bryan and children Becca and Tyler came by, we had a very good visit.

Both Bryan and Maria had some serious questions regarding our ministry, Jesus and Salvation. I pray we answered most of their questions.

Victor and Carol took us out to dinner and a concert, A small, but very good band playing music from a time past.

Victor’s cousin and his wife met us there, for a very nice outing… “Parting is such sweet sorrow,” or so says William Shakespeare, as we head out through Northern Wisconsin…

… passing beautiful Dairy farms…

… and into Moose and logging country of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. 

…The Ministry trip continues, as we visit and share the Love of Jesus, while enjoying the South Shore of Lake Superior, until next week…

THE WORLD NEEDS JESUS THE SAVIOR!

Excerpts from His Expository of the Gospels -- J. C. Ryle

The Christianity which the world requires, and the Word of God reveals, is a useful everyday religion. It is a healthy, strong, manly plant, which can live in every position, and flourish in every atmosphere except that of sin. It is a religion which a man can carry with him wherever he goes and never need leave behind him. In the army or in the navy, at the public school or at college, in the great hospital lecture room and at the bar, on the farm or in the shop, in the market or exchange, in parliament or at court, true heaven-born Christianity will live and not die. It will wear, and stand, and prosper in any climate, in winter and in summer, in heat and in cold. Such a religion meets the needs of mankind.

The glorious company of the Apostles, the noble army of martyrs, the saints who in every age and land have made their mark on mankind and turned the world upside down,--all, all have had one common mint-stamp upon them. They have been men who lived “Looking into Jesus.”

And the object we are to look at, you will observe, is a PERSON, --not a doctrine, not an abstract theological dogma, but a living Person; and that Person is Jesus the Very Son of God.

…The Ministry Trip Continues…
