I am getting some flack from my oldest daughter concerning NO posting to our blog. So here goes.

Wendell and the mission team (comprised of 3 men and 3 women from our church) returned home on Monday, June 9, 2008 from Uraguay after being gone for nine days. Three days before the team left they received an email from the missionary in Uraguay that one of the young men that was a member of their team last year was killed that day. He was 20 years old and he was playing ball with the younger kids and he jumped a fence to go after the ball and got into some power lines and was killed instantly. The missionary informed the Post team that he had no idea what to tell them to prepare for when they arrive. But as always if you will just turn it over to the Lord and let Him do His work then everything will be alright. I believe with all my heart that God sent this team to Uraguay at this time to minister to these children and adults that were affected by the death of Pablo. And, they did. Lots of hugs. God is good--all the time.

The week was filled with total blessings for the team. They have already committed to go back next year. But how can you say no to young children that look up and ask "Will we see you next year?"

LaShae started to Covenant School of Surgical Technology on Monday June 2, 2008. She seems to be enjoying it alot. She has found a house in Lubbock to rent and as soon as the painter gets through repainting the house we will move her to Lubbock. She is anxious to get moved so she want have to drive back and forth from Post (and probably to get away from Mom and Dad).

While Wendell was gone I decided our bedroom needed repainting. So I stayed pretty busy also.
