Leaving Texas for Zambia

We are about to embark on a new adventure with God. On June 20 we will leave Austin, Tx after over twenty years of ministry with the Brentwood Oaks Church. We will be sent as one of their missionary families to Kalomo, Zambia the home of Namwianga Mission to teach for the next five years at George Benson Christian College. We will assist the graduates of this college in planting churches throughout Zambia. We are excited about this new form of ministry. Zambia is one of the places where God is at work. We have been called to join Him in that work. We will leave behind a 23 year old daughter, Sara. She teaches middle school math in Tulsa, OK. John, 20 will stay in Austin working at an apartment complex in nearby Cedar Park. We will also leave behind many close friends in the church community in Austin, Texas, and around the USA. Pray for us as we make the transition from Austin to Zambia.
David & Linda

We are sad to see you leave us, but glad to partner in this new adventure God is sending you on! This site will be fun to read. I bet we will know more about your lives in Zambia than we do here in Austin! :-) May God bless you richly.

How exciting! I am so sad to see you both leave. I don't know how I would have manage without Linda's friendship through the tough times. I will miss her strong shoulder and kind words. I will keep you in my prayers. God Bless you both!
