Yankee’s Traveling Updates with More Friends


Yankee’s Traveling Updates with More Friends
Ralph “Yankee” Arnold

After leaving Minnesota, we headed for Michigan to see Bob and Cindy Gilbert. On the way we stopped at Perkins Restaurant in Superior, Wisconsin to eat and fellowship with Dennis Rokser. Dennis is a great Bible teaching-pastor of the Duluth Bible Church in Duluth, Minnesota. He is a true defender of the fundamentals of the faith. The Lord has used Dennis to build a great ministry that reaches people around the world.
Bob and Cindy work at the Florida Bible College of Tampa and enjoy the summer break to relax in their home in upstate Michigan. Betty and I were blessed to share in that relaxing part after driving on the road for so long. (over 5,000 miles so far).
George and Linda Heckman (our missionaries) from Calvary were also taking a break with their three children who are also missionaries. If you count the children, there were 26 of us. They all left the next day. What a family.
They are all smiling and happy because of the quality of their driver. Somebody had to drive.
You would never believe all the places we have parked our motor-home. Betty is the official backer-inner and shotgun director. As you can see, she deserves another break. Bob has a beautiful 5 acres on the lake.
 
Greg Dixon is another good friend of mine that I have known for about 40 years. Greg and his father (Dr. Greg Dixon, who has gone home to be with the Lord) was the pastor the Indianapolis Baptist Temple and fought many battles for religious freedom in America. Greg is being used by the Lord to help nationals around the world to plant churches. We met at Cheddar in Indianapolis for a noon meal. Them chicken pot pies were great.

So many of you have shared with us how you have enjoyed taking a trip with us through our newsletters. Thank you very much for your prayers. We head for Georgia to see our children and grandchildren and then head for home in Tampa, Florida. I plan on being back in the pulpit at Calvary Community Church on Sunday morning July 26. Join me at 10:30 am.
WAIT TILL YOU READ THE NEXT NEWSLETTER. IT IS GOING TO BE HARD TO BELIEVE!

Love to hear from you.
