The Life and Times of...well, this is important st: January 2006

Dave and Gwen DeSelm; Fellowship Missionary Church

I'm currently living in Fort Wayne, IN while I'm finishing my Education degree, and since my home church (Fairview Missionary, Angola IN) is an hours drive one way, I've decided to find another while I'm here. (Of course, who knows where God will put me after I graduate...)

The pastor of my new church, Fellowship MC, and his wife (Dave and Gwen DeSelm) have been at Fellowship for at least 25 years...they started it way back in the '80's... (Interesting that my pastor back at Fairview has also been there for way over 25 years...) Dave and Gwen are on their 1st real vacation (for more than a couple days at a time) since the beginning...this is a couple months worth in Israel (Notice the Dome of the Rock on the ancient Temple Mount in the background), Egypt, Washington DC and then the Caribbean. Well deserved! Follow the link above to check out their blog...the pics alone are worth the visit!

These are unusual people right here, in a VERY GOOD way. Thanks for all you have done at FMC, and for all you continue to do! Enjoy your time together!!

Ok, it's been a LONG TIME ago that I wanted to post these pics,

but I never got around to getting them out of my camera. Well, mom wanted me to email them to her, so it had to get done! There ar

e some

pics of not only Lydia, but also

Isaac--who is now 2 yrs old...and of course their older brother Ben Thomas alo

ng with mom and dad! I'm proud of my little sister (I taught her well) and Jeff is a very fine man...now that I'm not around to take care of my "brotherly responsibilities", Jeff does a GRATE (that is my sister's last name now) job of mercilessly teasing her! SO, the pics...ENJOY!!

Isaac...I know...someday you're gonna want to HURT ME BAD because of this pic... till then, keep smiling!

Ben Thomas, Uncle Pete and Isaac.

HILLARY'S FIRST NIGHT AS PRESIDENT

HILLARY'S FIRST NIGHT AS PRESIDENT in January 2009 Hillary Clinton gets elected President and is spending her first night in the White House. She has waited so long...........

The ghost of George Washington appears, and Hillary says, "How can I best serve my country?" Washington says, "Never tell a lie." "Ouch!" Says Hillary, "I don't know about that."

The next night, the ghost of Thomas Jefferson appears... Hillary says, "How can I best serve my country?" Jefferson says, "Listen to the people." "Ohhh! I really don't want to do that."

On the third night, the ghost of Abe Lincoln appears.. Hillary says, "How can I best serve my country?" Lincoln says…...
"Go to the theater."

(...I need to give credit to my friend from SanDiego CA for this one... way to go, Lynne!)
