St. Louis and Other Things

We had a great visit with Chris and Eleanor last weekend in St. Louis. They love the new apartment they've moved into, and it is located in a very nice section of town. There is a large park right across the street with a lot of shade trees and about 3 miles of walking/biking trails, plus a lot of open spaces for soccer and softball, etc. They are about a mile from a very nice Botanical Garden, and also very close to an Italian section of town featuring some wonderful little delis and restaurants. They are both doing well. Chris has begun his 3rd year of teaching 8th grade math, and Eleanor continues with her post-doctoral research position at Washington University.
This semester Dan is auditing a Spanish class at Asbury College (as distinct from Asbury Seminary), and that class began on Tuesday. He is also buckling down hard on studies for his upcoming qualifying exams. Nancy continues with her reading projects and with trying to keep Dan moderately straight :)
The Seminary semester begins in a couple weeks, during which Dan will be taking a course on Christian Healing, plus studying for and taking his qualifying exams, plus trying to write and defend the proposal chapter for his dissertation. Thank you for your continued prayers!
