Dinner with a Missionary
















We had the pleasure of entertaining Mr. Allen Iobst, who with his family is a missionary in Algeseris, Spain, last Thursday. It was exciting to hear of the success of the project he works with! He helps to run the project, which distributes Christian literature in the native language, to the people waiting to board the ferry on their return to North Africa. Many of the people are students who study in Europe and return to their North African homes during the weekends and holidays.

Mr. Iobst told stories, answered questions, and showed a video and pictures of the country and his work. He and his wife Deedee have 3 children: Josiah (6) and twins Thomas and Phoebe (4).

We had dinner, chatted, had a prayer time, and 3 of us girls played some music for him. We look forward to seeing him again soon, and this time he'll bring the family!
