I am supposed to meet Jax tomorrow (Wed) at Victoria Station in London. I can't wait to talk with her. She only has from 11am to 1:45, so it won't be as long as I had wished, but at least I will be able to hug her and become more familiar with her.

Violet and Sylvanus cannot be reached to make plans. And Housesitter's wife was in the hospital and so they need prayer. But, so far, Jax has hung in there to make my wish come true. I do hope to meet you and the Mrs. next year around this time. Or maybe it should be sooner than that because of weather. My goal is to travel around meeting anyone who is willing. Is that a "no, no?" Would that be intruding on other's privacy? I everyone in the U.S. should meet at some point. Well, at least we should all be able to have a reunion in Heaven, right?

I will have more time when I return to the Statess to communicate more. Hope you are really feeling better, BM and the Mrs. also. Let us know. Bonnie

"Slinking around", huh! Well I'm not quite sure how that compares to "lurking", lol! All that you're doing over there sounds interesting, and I do hope your meet-ups go well.

As for meeting people round the world that you asked about, by the standards of Western Christianity that would be quite normal. But in order to figure if it's really okay by the Lord, you'd have to consider and measure it in the light of the billions of people in the world who are starving, by a comparison of our rich life-style with their chronic poverty, and finally by a consideration of best use of money in the respect of eternal issues. My answer to this would be quite clear, but in the IR am I never in the business of telling anyone else how they should manage their personal lives - this being between them and the Lord.

We're actually feeling a little bit better, hon! - which is not something we get to say very often in our lives, so it's rather nice to actually speak it! Doesn't mean that life with our ill-health is really any different, just managing a tad better than we were. Only miracle healing by the Lord can fix the relatively serious and very wide-spread health issues of us both, and that's something I'm still believing God for!

Love ya heaps!
