We finished up in Northern New England with itineration. We got to see family and friends during the month of March. Pictured to the right is Gregg and Jeanne Randall, long-time friends. Gregg and Jeanne were pioneer pastors in Ellsworth, Maine during the time (late 70's - early 80's), we pioneered the church, Elim Assembly of God in Bath, Maine. It was nice to be able to connect with our friends of many years. They work in the NNED District Office.

Pictured to the left is the Duda Family with our brother-in-law Todd Bilodeau's Dad on the far left. Paul's Mom Nancy Duda is second from the end to the right.

We are so grateful to our family, to our Pastors, supporters, and prayer partners for your support over the past 20 years. We could not do our work without your help and love. We do not take this for granted, especially during these hard economic times that everyone is experiencing, some the loss of jobs after many years with a company.

Pictured to the right is Darlene and Ken Bosse with missionary Paul J. Duda at their home in Raymond, NH. Darlene made us a wonderful meal after church.
We enjoyed fellowship with them and getting to know them better after being friends for over 20 years. Itineration is a great time to catch up and spend time together. Pastor Ken and Darlene were very generous to us and very kind.

The End of Itineration

We will have our final service of itineration in our district tomorrow at the New Life Assembly of God church in Raymond, NH, Pastor Ken and Darlene Bosse. Paul's sister Teri and brother-in-law attend the church. We are staying with Paul's brother Steve in Raymond, NH and are enjoying our meetings with Pastors and friends in Northern New England District. We visited with our former Superintendent Sam and Rachel Ditrolio (pictured below), as well as our current Superintendent Dennis and Bevie Jo Marquardt (pictured above). Thanks for your sacrificial giving in cash and regular monthly support. We appreciate you!

Final Push - Itineration Nearing the End!

March 31, 2009

We will be finishing our itineration in New Hampshire and Vermont and our official last day to itinerate is March 31, 2009. Thank you for praying, giving, encouraging, loving, and being good friends to us. We had the special treat in March of visiting with Brother Gene Petty (our former NNED Superintendent) and Dottie while in Florida and eating some strawberries with them.

We will be leaving for El Salvador in April. We will post pictures and the work late April. God Bless You!
