Serve others....

This isn't about "doing what I tell you," though my surmise is that children WILL do far more of what their parents ask when they are taught the value of service. We are on one of our mission fields (it seems we have several...) and you, Hannah and Aaron, have grown up understanding the value and necessity of service, that the over all impact of our witness and ministry might be maximized. I know I've been blessed with two extraordinary kids, but I refuse to believe that our parenting has had nothing to do with the outlook they take on life...I hope you have learned to love and to serve and to think and to live fully from us--and I hope that other children might learn the same thing from their parents...
