VBS at Souls Harbor!!!

Let's go to camp!

Poor Ian, no one paid any attention to him!

I got to put a pie in Daniel's face, because the girls won!

I was pretty nice and did it very carefully. :)

Home!

We made it safely back to Wisconsin on Monday night. Thank you so much for praying for us. We had a wonderful time in New York! As we were headed back to Wisconsin, we felt like we were leaving our home in Brooklyn, and we are definitely looking forward to moving there! Please pray for us as we prepare for our ministry in NYC! Thank you!
Love Daniel and Maggy

New York Knows Food!

An amazing Italian meal we had yesterday!

Cannolis

After watching the fireworks, we were all craving Dunkin Donuts. So, we stopped at one on the way home, but it was closed. Of course we were all very disappointed. So,when we got back to the church, we went down to the kitchen to scrounge around for snacks and the whole table was full of Dunkin Donuts bags--donuts, bagels and muffins! One of the teen girls from the church brought them for us. What a special treat at just the right time!

Playing on the swings

The past two weeks we have been staying in Yonkers, in a house on the church property. Hava loves the little playground in the backyard. This girl goes non-stop all day. I don't think she ever gets tired!

Since I was holding Ian (and trying to take pics) Hava figured out a way to push herself on the swings.

It worked pretty well! :)

Fireworks at Harbor Island Park in Mamaroneck, Yonkers!!!

NYC Update!

Thank you so much for your prayers! We have been moving at a fast pace so far! Last week, we were busy picking up NYSET members from the airport and showing them around the city. We also did some painting for Faith Baptist Church in Queens and witnessing in that neighborhood. Daniel also preached in the Wednesday evening service. Faith Baptist Church is the church the Lowerys started.

We had an amazing time this past week working in the Bronx. We worked with an English and Spanish church Sunday through Wednesday in the southeast Bronx. It was so exciting to see three people saved in the morning service as well as two kids in the park meeting we held on Wednesday. Of course Havilah loved going to the park. She enjoys watching the Gospel painting, songs, and stories! On Tuesday, we invited the church members to come out witnessing with us. Around 20 people from the church showed up! It was encouraging to see such a great number of people who wanted to share the Gospel in their own neighborhood! They were a very enthusiastic group. The Lord opened up many doors and the Gospel was given to many people! Praise Him!

We also ministered with Victory Baptist Church in the Bronx on Thursday and Friday. The NYSET group spent the two days mostly doing door-to-door ministry. We also had a great service with them on Thursday night.

Please pray for our week coming up in Yonkers. We will be preparing for a teen activity in the park on Friday night. The parks around here are FULL of kids and teens who spend their whole days hanging out there. We are excited to see what God will do!

We are very grateful for your prayers, support, letters and emails! We love hearing from you! Havilah and Ian are doing great! Havilah loves all the NYSET college students, and Ian is such a happy boy. We are very thankful for our children!

God Bless!
Daniel and Maggy
