Ray and Marti are settled back into life in Adelaide, living only two doors down from the college, but moving all over the city to help with church planting.

It is great to have at least one (really two) of our children on this side of the Pacific Ocean. Andi and Evan live on the other side of Adelaide from us and we see them often. They are all grown up now with jobs, a mortgage and other responsibilities.

Leanne graduated from Wheaton College in May 2008 and started graduate school in August, 2009, studying anthropology at the University of California, San Diego. Hard work, but so far she loves it!

Pam is almost halfway through her junior year at Houghton College. Both she and Leanne will be joining us for Christmas in Australia this year, before she heads back to the states and then on to Tanzania for a semester of study there. It will be great to be all together for Christmas this year. First time in 4 years!
