We arrived on Saturday and met with Pastor Chuck Parrott and his family for tea. The sign out in front of their church gave us a huge welcome. They also had a promo from radio Rhema to play on their radio station about our coming to their church services. It was great to hear the Aussie accent again!!!!On Sunday, we went to Covenant Baptist Church in Union, South Carolina. We were able to share in Sunday School along with Steve's dad and mum. We were going to sing "I'll fly away" during the morning service, but since the congregation was going to sing this song we decided to sing "Just a Little Talk With Jesus" as a family (along with Dad & Mum Sauvageot). Then we sang "If This is What God Wants", Trevor sang "I Will Go On", and Steve preached the morning service. They also had a lovely potluck lunch for us to share with the fellowship. During the evening service, Trevor sang "Forgiven Again", Steve preached, and Steve & Jennie Sang "God Never Moves Without Purpose or Plan."
As some of you Australians may remember, Pastor Charles Parrott came to Fraser Coast Baptist Church in 1995 and again with his wife in 1997. This year, he plans to come again in July. He is hoping to bring a team from his church for a missions trip. Pray along with him for the people God wants to bring out to Australia with him. He is very excited about coming to Australia again. Below is a picture of Pastor Chuck, his wife--Renee, and children--Chase and Joshua.

Our entire church family was truly blessed through the ministry of the Sauvageots! I want to personally thank Larry, Ginger, Steve, Jennie, Susan, Trevor, Andrew, Jacob, and Benjamin for visiting us at Covenant Baptist!
The Lord has graciously worked to provide Chase with a passport, and in the week after your visit He has seen fit to provide him with a new suitcase, round-trip airfare to Australia, a travel visa, and a great desire to come to Hervey Bay to "tell people about Jesus."
The Lord is working on others as well, please keep praying for His team to be assembled!
May God's blessings be yours as you travel here in the States!
In Christ,
Chuck Parrott
