Hello from Sheboygan, Wisconsin!by heidi st. john
The
past several days have been a whirlwind of ministry activity... a
marriage conference in Michigan and a few more homeschool workshops.
We have so much to share - but before we do, I'd like to introduce you
to a wonderful young man and a recent homeschool graduate - Trevor
Uptain!
Trevor has been part of FCHM since it's
beginning nearly ten years ago in Mount Vernon, Washington. In fact,
he was a student in Jay's very first FCHM web design class and now, he
is designing websites for others! We think a lot of Trevor and as
you will see in a moment, he has quite a gift for writing and he loves
the Lord deeply.
We had the privilege of hosting
Trevor for about three weeks this summer on our trip. I asked him if
he would write for our blog and give us his perspective. Both Jay and
I were impressed and encouraged by what he wrote. I know you will be,
too. (Trevors blog entry is below.)
Thanks for traveling with us, Trevor! It was
encouraging to see God at work in your life ... and we look forward to
what He is going to do in and through you in the future as you follow
Him!
Because of Him,

Keep up to date on the St. John's this Summer! Click below to visit:

He Gave All for Liberty
 Writing
about your experiences on a historic tour of the United States is much
like trying to explain a new color to someone who's never seen it.
Where do you start? What do you compare it to? I've written hundreds of
thousands of words over the past few years, but very few of those words
have eluded me as much as those trying to describe the feeling you get
when you walk through a Revolutionary War battlefield or touch a
gravestone from the 17th century. The more you see and
experience the rich history of America, the more deeply you come to
appreciate the men and women who sacrificed so much of their lives for
our freedom - and to appreciate the God they allowed to mold their own
lives and the destiny of our nation.
