Mike and Barb,

Congratulations on the selling of your home.  I sure hate to see you leave
West Virginia but your new place in Kentucky sounds like it is going to be
both a nice place to live and to do your mission work!!!  Please keep us
posted.  I will see you at national convention.

Charlene

Sheri,

Teri has been a real help to Barb and I. She may have been the one who had
to "put up" with my strange book requests such as, "Can you find a book
about snake handling churches?" Of course, she along with her co-workers
came through.  Thank you Teri.
We have news. We sold our property and will be moving both the mission and
us to Grayson, Ky the weekend of July 23.
 Don't panic, Saturday meeting still on at 5214 MacCorkle SW in South
Charleston. Don't know KY address yet, but will be living in married student
apt. block with office and work area in newly donated mission's emphasis
building at Kentucky Christian University. Will have 5000 square feet of
8000 square foot building for braille mission after remodeling. And yes, in
the midst of this Barb and I are going to national Convention in Orlando.
We'll only be a little West of Huntington just off of I-64.

Mike
