New Children's Choir
Wow! We are barely back home in the UK, and we have really had to hit the ground running already! One of the first projects awaiting us upon our return was to re-establish the KEC children's choir program. We have 21 children enrolled now!!! They are doing an awesome job making "a joyful noise unto the Lord." Here's a pic from tonight's rehearsal, although four of our regular members were absent. We are currently working on music to be presented at our annual Christmas pageant.

Fun Fair Faces
We set up a table at a fun fair which sets up across the street from our church, KEC. Here we offer free face painting. We also offer info regarding activities for all ages at KEC and most importantly, regarding Jesus Christ and salvation through Him. To God be the glory!

Wall Roman Ruins (Letocetum)

Today, our family got the chance to tour the Roman ruins of Letocetum, located in Staffordshire, England, which is only about 30 minutes from our home. Notice the lovely parish church on the hill behind the ruins.
Wall was an important staging post on Watling Street, the Roman military road to North Wales. It provided overnight accommodation for traveling Roman officials and imperial messengers. The foundations of an inn and bathhouse can be seen, and many of the excavated finds are displayed in the on-site museum.

Wicksteed Park, UK
Today was the final day of KEC's 2009 Holiday Club. Each year on Friday of HC, we take a trip. This year we went to Wicksteed Park. It was a delightful ending to a simply miraculous week. Shown above, Myleea and friends stop long enough to make this picture, several of our group of youngsters waiting in the que for a ride, and finally, Bubba and crew riding the rollercoaster at the park. (Yes, those are sweatshirts and long sleeves you see! This is England...sun can be a rarity here!) We ended up with 50 registered participants and 8 decisions of children who desire to make Jesus the Lord and Saviour of their lives! Thank you for your prayers, and may God be praised for the awesome and mighty things He has done and is doing!

KEC Holiday Club 2009
Things are coming together nicely for Holiday Club 2009 at KEC! Shown here are Bubba and Chris Hakesley (a cherished friend and mastermind of set construction!) completing the construction of their Tiki hut. Rockie got them to take a second to smile for the camera. :) Also shown is part of our beach. If you know anyone in the Kingshurst Birmingham area who wants something fun for 5 through 10 year olds next week, send them our way! Outrigger Island is sure to be a wonderful adventure!

Coventry City Mission


Here are a couple of the new friends made by Rockie and Myleea at the Coventry City Mission in Coventry, England. Coventry is only about twenty minutes from our home. We were delighted to get the opportunity to meet with their lunch club, a precious group of senior citizens, a couple of Mondays ago. We were treated to a tasty lunch of traditional British fish and chips, and afterwards we gave a power point presentation showing a bit about our history and ministry. We then sang several songs and were blessed to get to personally speak with many about their relationship with Jesus Christ. We look forward to getting to meet with this lovely group again! Indeed, they and Brother Hatfield, who organizes the group, are such a blessing and a joy.

About Us
- Bubba and Rockie
- To live our lives to glorify God to the fullest. Whether at work, at play, at church, or out in the world, we want to lift the name of the Lord our Savior, Jesus Christ. We are very thankful that God has called us into career missions. We are having to step out into the unknown, which is fine because nothing is unknown to God! This way, we must depend fully on God, and God alone--not on ourselves or on men.
