Good-Bye

The hardest thing about living overseas ,is saying good-bye to people you love, most of all, now, our own daughter. Jayne has been here for three weeks, and it has been wonderful. But all good things do come to an end, and today we've taken the time for a long hike through the valleys around Kandern. It was a beautiful day, and a good time to talk about life with Jayne and try to know how she's doing. We're very proud of how she's handling a difficult time of transition (for the third time in 4 years), and know that God will use these times to train her and shape her for life ahead.

The walk from Kandern to Sitzenkirch, where Bernice teaches, is one of our favorites, and here you see the trail as it leads back to Kandern along the sunny side of the valley. I'm sure we've walked this trail 50 times in the last 3 years. It is about 3 kilometers from Kandern to Sitzenkirch.
