Seed Sowers: Gospel-Planting Adventures!!


Hello and Merry Christmas to you all from Dallas, Texas!

I just wanted to let you know what one of our supported WA Staff in Dallas has been up to.  John, Gwen and their 7 children moved to Dallas just over two years ago...and have added one more to their clan since moving, making it 8 cute kiddies!  John is the Associate Center Director of Facilities Maintenance at the ILC, and Gwen homeschools the kids, and is also a writer.  She writes homeschool articles for a blog and also has a family blog that she updates, among other things. 

When they arrived in Dallas, she started interviewing the missionaries that have served around the world that have "retired" in Dallas, specifically those living in the Cowan Apts (Wycliffe "retirement" apts).  She has written a book of their missionary stories.  There are 21 short stories (chapters), and it is family friendly.  The book is called Seed Sowers: Gospel Planting Adventures.

Seed Sowers is available for purchase on amazon.com for $12.55.  Right now the Kindle version is $3.99.  Below is the link to both the book and the Kindle version if you are interested in getting for yourself or as a Christmas gift.  Sorry I didn't get this sent out sooner!  If you are in the Dallas area, you can also get them from John or Gwen and will save a couple of bucks.  I am getting copies for my nephews and a few other family members as Christmas presents.  What a great way for people, especially children, to learn about missions work around the world!!


If you would like to know more about their beautiful "little" family, I have attached the web address to their blog:  www.toliverstotexas.com/.

If you would like to know more about the book, Gwen has a website with more details, and it is http://seedsowersthebook.com/

So now that I have pumped you full of ALL kinds of information, I will let you go.  :~)

I hope you all have a Merry Christmas, and I look forward to seeing some of you after the new year!
