Welcome to our blog. It's just two weeks until we leave for our adventure in England. Why are we traveling across the pond, you ask? Well, the Plymouth Evening Herald can explain it in less than 200 words. Click here to read an article posted on April 21st.
I had been in touch by email with a gentleman in Plymouth who raises pigeons. A week or so later I began receiving phone calls from Plymouth from people responding to my request in the newspaper! The NEWSPAPER??!!?? I was surprised to discover my name in print, and embarrassed that they called me an 'author'.
I've spoken with three couples: they were children during WW2, living in Plymouth during the Blitz, and evacuated to the countryside. They are anxious to share their stories with me, so we are planning to visit with them and have a long "chat" whilst enjoying a cup of coffee. I've spoken with them on the phone and already feel that I've made some wonderful, new friends. It's been amazing and humbling to see God's hand at work for me as we prepare to leave on this journey.
