Brian and Susan Shortmeier Just another weblog Dear Friends & Family,
It often seems within days of an arrival back to the states, we are off on a road trip. This past week we traveled to South Carolina to see Brian’s mom. She is doing well and making needed adjustments as Brian’s father passed away this past February. We were glad to be able to spend time with her and Brian’s sister and her family as well.
We then headed north and had a wonderful weekend at Liberty University. Jared graduated Summa Cum Laude with a degree in Music Education. We attended three different services, each such a blessing. We are so thrilled for the education our children received these past 7 years.
After graduation we helped pack up Jared’s belongings and put them in storage. The great news is starting in August Jared has a job directing choirs at the Appomattox Middle and High Schools, 30 minutes from Lynchburg. Earlier in the week, Kevin, Heather and Jared went apartment hunting in Appomattox and stumbled into a small complex where a lady had just turned in her key the hour before. Jared is waiting to hear if this will be his new home.
The five of us traveled north after a Mother’s Day Lunch. Kevin and Heather went back to their home in Maryland while we returned to Cedar Lane. It’s nice to be unpacked again. We will have another road trip this up-coming weekend as we travel south a bit as some friends from Papua New Guinea are getting married. Susan would appreciate your prayers as the end of May she is the main speaker at a Ladies Retreat in Harvey Cedars, NJ.
Now that we are settled, we are working on our calendar for up-coming meetings for the fall, so give us a call. Thank you for your friendship, prayers and financial gifts!!!
With Love,
Brian & Susan Shortmeier
