On Friday, Judy had a follow-up exam at Dr. Glazers' it was determined that she should add a new prescription to her Medicine regiment. It will take about 6 to 9 weeks to determine if this is a viable change. We then met Jan and Jim Gee , Ohio ,NOMADS whom we had worked with in 2007at Va. and N.C. for 2 projects and became friends with, They are wintering here in the RGV. We all went to the Rio Grande Music Festival and heard some great Country,Bluegrass and Gospel performers. The Link Family was one of them. After 5hrs of music and visiting, we decided to catch a bite and continue our visit. Sometime during the day John had lost his Cell phone.

So on Saturday the Longs went shopping , Lowes (for paint supplies replacement) Best Buy (for a new camera and photo printer) Wal-mart (for Judy's new Meds.) Don-West flea market (try to find a special Birthday gift for Samantha, who will be 17 on March 1st, she is John's daughter. Then we stopped by the Verizon store and got Judy's phone updated to a newer model (one with better volume and larger keys and displays) Now John is using the old phone but has the same Cell Number 319-899-7602 and Judy's is her same Number 319-521-4458.

Sunday we opted to attend the Gospel session at RGV music fest instead of attending a regular church service. What a blessing we received.

Then this morning it was back to our regular NOMAD daily routine of Devotions (led by Carolyn Mitchell, today)
then it was to resume painting of the HUGE complex on the south end of the grounds. work from 8:30 til 10:15 break til 10:35 then work til Noon, Return at 1 pm til 2:15 break then finish up 2:35 til 4pm.

As we close please remember Judy's Aunt Loretta in hospital with pneumonia

All of our Service personnel who protect our freedoms.

The CRM Chaplains as they are ministering.

Our Country and all of its leaders that they may lead us wisely.

Please remember us as we our still seeking Gods leadership for us
concerning our New work with CRM.

We will try to get some pictures with the new camera this week and resume adding pictures here on our blog, if requested.

May God Blessing go out to each of you as we start the Easter Season this week with Ash Wednesday. May each of you pray for a loved lost one that they may come to know the true meaning of Easter , When our loving Savior died on the cross for each of us, and then arose to be with His Father, Our GOD.

Special Hugs and appreciation to all for your encouragement and prayers that are felt by us

The Endeavor Crew: Judy, John, Bamm- Bamm and Pebbles.
