The Family Visits the Foremans' in Kodiak!


Stephen’s parents and family made it safely to Kodiak on June 8th! We had a wonderful time showing them where we live. I’ll post more pictures and add to our blog more later!

First Week of Camp

Island Summer Adventures began on June 4th. Stephen is Itsy in the morning puppet show during chapel and I play the guitar and try to help make things go smoothly. I’m not sure how smooth they actually go, but the kids seem to be having a good time.
Today I got to go out with a group of the kids for their morning activity time. It was a huge blessing! I didn’t get any of the work I needed to get done, but I’m always amazed at how the Lord gives me just what I need, when I need it. We went out to the Buskin River, played on the beach and had a wonderful time together!

Let Me Catch You Up!

Today is the second nicest day we’ve had all year. The first day came just this past Sunday when temperatures broke into the mid 50s and the sun shown almost all day! It was a wonderful gift sent only by God!

I’d like to try and catch everyone up to spend on what has been happening in our lives since Memorial Day weekend. Stephen finished his first year as a teacher on May 31st and turned in his keys at the Christian School. He had an overall great year and will miss the kids and his boss, but we’re both excited to see where the Lord will take him this fall.

I finished the ARK program on June 1st with a fun all day adventure with the kids. I’ve posted a picture from our wet hike. The weather was terrible, but we still managed to have a good day.

Stephen and I then moved into Ayer Cottage for the summer to be the house supervisors at the Mission on June 3rd after an afternoon hike with our youth group to Termination Point. It’s been quite the adjustment living with people again, but the summer staff is great!
