Practicing gratitude has been hard work this year! At times Dave has struggled to find joy in his work, while Beth has battled with some physical ailments, including shingles. Being thankful in all circumstances has been a significant challenge these last few months.

| Levi is grateful to be learning guitar from his mom |
It is for this reason we are looking forward to Thanksgiving and Christmas. We have found that looking over our photos from the last year has been a meaningful practice. While reviewing pictures from the last year, God can remind us of the many moments of grace along the way. These blessings have come in the form of timely visits from family, new relationships with students, and surprising financial provision.
