Fellowshipping with Colter

Our friend Colter returned to the States last week to see family and go around to different churches speaking about God's work in Kazakhstan.  It was so good to see him!

Jesse arranged for Colter to come speak to our church, and we were looking forward to it for months.

Colter is an old friend from our college days.

We hadn't seen him since graduation, and haven't had much communication with him since he's been teaching English in Kazakhstan and sharing God's Word with the people there.


It was great to have him come to our church and speak to the members there.  So many exciting stories to hear and new things to pray for.


 



After Colter's presentation, Jesse and I took him to our favorite 50s diner on Route 66.  We sat there til nearly 11pm catching up on life and enjoying old friendship.


Colter spent the night with us that night, and the next morning, Jesse took him to another school in the area to speak with the students there.  I don't know when we'll see him again, but I'm thankful for the time we got to spend with him last week.


God be with you til we meet again, Colter!
