Carl:  I enjoyed the Urbana convention that I attended in 1993. I made a commitment at that time to be involved in full time ministry, or working towards it by 1998. In the fall of 1998 my wife and I were accepted by ACTION International as career missionaries. We arrived in the Philippines in February 2000 and are now in the middle of language studies. We will open a discipleship home for former street boys sometime in 2001. We praise God for His guidance through Urbana and other missions conferences we attended over the years prior to pursuing ministry full time. 08/24/00

"

Mark 10:28-30 (NIV)
