spring conference & slovakia

we just got back from our annual spring conference in the czech republic.

it was very exciting to be with so many other missionaries who are ministering in this area of the world.

we heard some amazing teaching from our leader dave patty, and guest speaker ray pritchard.

both speakers spoke truth to my current situation and offered much encouragement through God's Word. it couldnt have come at a better time.

after the conference fletch and i visited mike sullivan, a missionary friend of ours, and who lives in czech and works in slovakia.



mike gave us a quick tour of a few parts of slovakia... and contrary to what the name suggests, its a beautiful country!

we hiked through a place they call "slovak paradise."





it was like any other hiking trail, but there were also parts where you had to climb up a bunch of ladders to get to the next part of the trail.


heres me on one of the ladders trying to show how high i was... but all you can see is my head! haha.

we also spent some time around the tatry mountains, which were also beautiful.

overall, it was an amazing trip.

on to the summer...
