Travels and Treats

Well hello again!
What a great June and wonderful start to July we've had! Jake and I just returned from another trip to Kingsburg (Fresno, CA area) sharing our ministry. We were so blessed by the people that we were able to talk with AND we even remembered to take a few pictures of some of the highlights! One of the highlights of this trip was getting to stay with Bruce and Janet Adams, faithful supporters and fantastic hosts! They have a travel trailer in the back of their park-like backyard and they let us stay there for the week! We had a grand time with them, drinking morning coffee (well I did, Jake doesn't drink coffee), and playing with their dog Obie, who was the coolest dog ever. On top of letting us stay with them Bruce and Janet held a "meet and greet" for us in their home. We shared, showed the video, answered questions, and I got to tell the story about how Jake and I met. The response from the "meet and greet" was very encouraging and it was lovely to get to talk with people in a more casual and personal setting.

Another exciting thing from our trip was being able to share for a few minutes at Kingsburg First Baptist Church. Bruce Adams is the leader of the"GO" Team which is their mission committee and he interviewed both of us in front of the congregation at the beginning of both services. It was so exciting sharing the ministry of MMS to everyone and telling everyone about what the Lord is doing in our lives. We set up our official missionary board and handed out "Heath" candy bars to all who came by after the services, get it "Heath" :)   ~Cayton~

Our little missions set up!


 Bruce interviewing us! What fun!
Jake wanted to share these last two photo with you too.
 Support raising is hard work! I had to fix a flat, and then still ride 42 miles with these three guys and the part you see in the picture is the only flat part we rode! Two of them support our ministry and the third guy took our info and it sounds like he is going to partner with us too! We'll do just about anything to start service in Ohio at MMS Aviation! ~Jake~ :)
These are about two of the Godliest men I know, and tremendous athletes as well, they whooped me! ~Jake~

All and all Jake and I were very pleased with this trips outcome and we are anxiously awaiting any new supporters the Lord might bring our way! Thank you all for your prayers during this trip. We are getting close and looking forward to starting service as soon as our support comes in and MMS gives us the green light.
Thanks!
~Cayton~
