Texas and the drive through the wilderness

On our way from Pensacola, we HAD to stop in Houston, where currently live missionaries from Bolgaria, the Marinov family. It was such a blessing! Converted from Marxist ideology to the Gospel of Christ, Bojidar Marinov understands the issues we, the Christians of the West are facing. Also, us immigrants from the former Soviet Bloc countries. Bojidar translated many books into his native tongue, books that provide real answers from God’s Word, to society in ruins after a century of Communism. http://www.bulgarianreformation.org/newsite2/index.php

Driving is dull in Texas, straight roads don’t offer much variety. :) At least the speed limit is acceptable. :)

These Saguarro cacti live up to 200 years old, and weigh many tons, and grow up to 50 feet tall!!

Sunset and the cool street name, hopefully the people that live there are living up to it! :)

Grace Community Church in S. California 

We had the privilege to hear the college choir and symphonic orchestra sing and play great hymns, and Handel’s work among them – Hallelujah chorus! Praise be to God!!!

On the road to Sacramento, seems like the two cities are a mile apart judging by this sign Sometimes things in life are different than they appear at first glance. Ignorance is not bliss. :)

Thank you for praying for us! God has been so good to us on this journey!! The first part of the journey is over, but there is so much more to share! We'll post a more detailed reflection on it shortly. Until then, may God richly bless you!
