Thank you for all the Birthday wishes! Many of you have asked what I am doing now that I am retired from Bayside Church. Here’s a quick synopsis and invitation to join me or us on one or more of the amazing adventures planned!
1. We have been focusing on the 10.5 grandkids… that’s right, our daughter Christa is expecting her third, our 11th grandchild! We love our family!
2. Gloria and I are going to Belize on an investigative/planning trip for a 50/50 (ministry/adventure) trip for a group next year with AIM (Agape International Mission). We will be there 11/1-16. We have some friends coming with us the 2nd half, 11/9-16. Interested in coming for any of it?
3. I’m planning to hike the whole John Muir Trail, from Yosemite Valley to Mount Whitney starting, if we can get the permits, on 7/2/25 and taking about 3 weeks.
4. I’m planning to go back to Everest Base Camp via Gokyo Lakes (look them up!) November 4-23, 2025. I loved Nepal and the Himalayas and the whole trek last time I did it – but want to go in an even more beautiful route this time.
5. Family Gatherings – We had all the kids/grandkids in SoCal in March of this year and they are all willing to come to our home/area this coming Christmas. We are pumped and planning some great adventures.
6. Gloria and I have many other trips projects going on as well. We will be driving North to Washington then Idaho for a wedding the first week of October.
7. Ministry? I’m on the Board for Bayside Adventure Sports and working on several projects for that ministry while still trying to get our non-profit, G1 Outdoors up and running. We are still attending Bayside Church as well.

OK, that’s a lot…. Interested in joining us for any of our adventures? Send us a text or message! We love you all and am honored the Lord has given us good health and the opportunity to continue to work on the Great Commission!

I'm thrilled that we are sending our 5th group to Peru to hike the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, since 2013. This is the first group going without me but under the great leadership of my friend and international trekking partner Ron Pierce. The group will be spending a day doing ministry at an amazing location which we have served the last 3 trips to Peru.

A Christian woman had a vision to serve the single mothers in a poverty stricken community by feeding and assisting their children with schoolwork and the Gospel. Without the help of this ministry, the mothers would have to be home with their children and wouldn't be able to work, therefore forced in more and more severe poverty. There are 22 single mothers with families being cared for.

Please consider a donation to this ministry. Our team will be providing food for a week for every family, resources to cover the ongoing expenses of the ministry, and a fun day of playing with and giving gifts to the children. Our group gets to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Please consider helping out.
