We have officially returned to Ireland from our five week trip to the U.S. While we had great time with family and great meetings with friends and supporters, our trip definitely went off the rails. I have to apologize for not posting updates these past few weeks.
Within a 24 hour period we learned of the death of Katy’s cousin in Thibodaux, LA as well as my cousin’s death in Oklahoma City. Both were far too young and a complete shock to our families. Being in Oklahoma at the time we had to wrestle with whether or not Katy should fly to Baton Rouge. I had the honor of officiating my cousin’s funeral on the same day they laid Katy’s cousin to rest. In the end Katy stayed in Oklahoma since this was our boys’ first experience with death. Needless to say we were thrown for a loop emotionally, mentally, spiritually, and logistically.
Please keep us and our families in your prayers. We know God is with us and have seen His goodness throughout the past weeks. It means the world to know we have you all praying and supporting us so faithfully. Thank you!
