neimeyers for lunch

larry & judy neimeyer are missionaries that are supported by the church scott grew up at. it was such a treat that they are back on furlough AND visiting orange county at the same time scott's parents are here from atlanta! (and that our soccer tournament schedule was accomodating!)
we were able to have everyone over for lunch and it was so neat to hear about the work the neimeyers have been doing in africa over the past 40+ years. it was a blessing to hear about the vision God has given them and the fruit of their labor in following that vision.
another treat for us was being able to help them out with some technical troubles. they are travelling giving presentations to their supporters and their projector & computer were not working. scott was able to fix the problem and that was a joy to us as using our gifts and talents to serve the body is always on our hearts.
the kids got a kick out of meeting the grandparents of some friends they met in texas on our trip a few months ago! (although at first when we kept saying the niemeyers were coming for lunch they were expecting friends their own age.)
God bless the neimeyers as they continue share the goodnews and make disciples!
