After many mix-ups and long layovers yesterday, Corky and I arrived in Des Moines, Iowa last night. This morning we did a seminar for pastoral couples. Interestingly enough, it was mostly about education!
This afternoon we ate at a wonderful place called "The Machine Shed"...a kind of "country cooking extrordinaire" place with, what else, a farm theme.
We are staying in Pella, a Dutch settled community where Pella windows are manufactured. It is really beautiful. The farmlands all around are beautiful and green right now and very well-kept. They've just been through flooding, so there are some places which still have floodwaters around but they looks like lakes to me!
Tomorrow we minister in two churches.
Oddly, enough, the church where the seminar was held, a new church plant in a mall (Three Lakes Church) is pastored by a guy whose mother and sister's family now attend Woodward!

looks like a pretty place. Sometimes it's nice to see parts of the country and how different they can be from our own. It's just refreshing and beautiful.
Wow! Like that clear blue sky!
Hope you guys are having a great time.
