Before I made it to home to PA, I spent a week on the West Coast in
Oregon and California. I got to
spend 4 of those days with my Kudjip neighbors – Bill and Marsha McCoy and
their family. 
It was a very enjoyable 4 days.
I saw all the sights of Oroville, Ca and the surrounding area, and got
to meet many great people in the McCoy family and the Oroville Church of the
Nazarene. I caught up with
the McCoys, went fishing, ate lots of watermelon, and watched the beaver each
night with Bill’s dad. I also got
to share about my call to missions and PNG with many folks who are supporting
me and others who have been longtime supporters of God’s work at Kudjip through
knowing the McCoys. At the end of
the time of sharing, they prayed for the McCoys and I as we are heading out
again at the end of our home assignment (HA) times. 
It was a special weekend for the McCoy family as Bill’s dad was honored
on Father’s Day for the Godly Father that he has been to his children, as well
as to many in the church. He is
definitely a special man and I am thankful I have gotten the chance to know him
a bit these past few years.
It was definitely a great 4 days and I have already been invited back to
the church for my next HA, so looking forward to seeing the folks in Oroville again
in the fall of 2014.
