7) Last Month’s Happenings

• Barb developed an inguinal hernia suddenly last month and had surgery to repair it about two weeks ago. I’ve been her home healthcare nurse and have enjoyed every minute with her as she continues to recover. We’re thankful for many friends who prayed and have provided meals for us.
• No travel, speaking, or PR events were held last month.
• The 9th semester of the marriage ministry Barb and I direct, ReEngage, is past its halfway point. It’s great to see so many couples working on their marriages – and even neater to see the Lord at work in the lives of His kids.

8) Upcoming Events

• No travel, speaking, or PR events are planned for April. Barb and I look forward to enjoying another sabbatical month of rest and refocusing.
