Hola Icon Viewers:

Patti and I are doing well here in Ensenada, Mexico. Can you believe it has been 16 years since Genesis began from a simple yet powerful prayer... your will in my life, Lord. It has been 7 years since we moved to Mexico to serve here as missionaries. We truly miss seeing our family and friends, know that you are all in our hearts.

We are writing to you about a special opportunity that has arisen for Genesis for which we could use your help.

"Essence: Discovering Beauty and Love"

A simple beauty, a chorus of love
accompanies each still dawn
until it emerges again.

Listen, watch, breathe, discover
the gifts dancing, lurking,
hidden in plain sight.

Blessings for children and elders,
drawing each toward life
abundant, enough.
The essence of it all.

Thanks for the timely coverage you provide. The Sesquicentennial is coming soon. I have made some contacts with distant cousins who are planning on coming to Bluffton for the celebration.

Some are coming from Arizona, California, Missouri, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Virginia, Massachusetts and Michigan. People are beginning to ask about a schedule of events.
