We arrived back in our hometown of Corning on June 14th and got settled into our house for the summer months. We thank all of North Baptist Church for allowing us to stay in, and for wonderfully preparing, the green house across the street from the church.
The kids have enjoyed staying the night at friends houses and getting to know each other again.
Becki and I have been blessed by so many people already. We have had the opportunity to have dinner and fellowship time with friends and our "small group" buddies, along with seeing our families again.

We got to celebrate Josh's birthday!! I have been working with the youth group for 2 weeks now and have been able to get together with some of them individually to talk. They are a great bunch of youth people! We have TEEN WEEK starting July 23rd, please pray for the teens as they participate in evangelism and outreach, as well as some serious fun.
We are looking forward to having time to meet with many other people over the next 5 weeks or so. We want to share our hearts with as many people as we can while we are home.
Thank you for praying for us as we continue to seek God and His will for our lives.

It's nice to see you guys again. We are so grateful to have The Bennet's come to help Teen and youth groups in our church during summer time. Enjoy the summer and we'll get together again sometime.
Cheers,
Small group buddies.:)
Hey John and Becky-It's so nice to hear about all that's going on in your lives. Enjoy your stay back in NY. Sean and Cal are home til July 10. Hopefully you'll get to see them at church. Cal's hoping to catch a youth group outing when he's there!! Take care and keep in touch.
