Hello, folks!

Sorry for the delay between blog posts!
We didn't find a place to stay last night until fairly late, so Randy and I were both exhausted. Turns out finding lodging near the Grand Canyon is not easy! haha.

Today we visited the Canyon itself. Twas my first time seeing it, and it was amazing! I expected it to be enormous, but it surpassed those expectations! So deep! And you can't even see the whole thing from one spot. I know that may seem like a "duh" thing to say, but it took me off guard! The even cooler part was that there was a rain storm in the Canyon, visibly moving across the landscape. Truly beautiful and a testament to God's handiwork in creation.

Upon leaving the Canyon, we realized there was no straight route into Utah, our next destination. That being the case, we had to trace a path around the Canyon, backtrack a bit in Arizona, basically doing a loop around the whole thing.

The landscape in New Mexico had few signs of civilization, but Arizona definitely beats it there! It's so desolate out here! Saw lots of Native American shops and communities, but that was about it, at least until coming to our current place of rest, Page, Arizona. It's a pretty decent sized town right across the border from Utah, so we're almost where we want to be.

Tomorrow we're driving across Utah and planning on camping outside of Salt Lake City. Can't wait to get into that town and interview some folks! After basically two days of just driving and driving and driving across desert, Randy and I are both ready to get back to talking to folks on the street!

In the book of Acts, we hear about how the disciples, under threat from the religious authorities of the day, prayed to the Lord and asked him to help them "continue to speak your word with all boldness, while you stretch out your hand to heal, and signs and wonders are performed through the name of your holy servant Jesus." (Acts 2:29-30). Please pray for the same sense of boldness for me and Randy as we continue this trip!

Also, today take some time to reflect on God's grandness and might. He really is above all things, in control of all things, and the Inventor of all things. He's the greatest scientist, the greatest artist, the greatest musician, the greatest author of all time. And on top of all that, He loves you and longs to have a relationship with you. A real relationship.

Love you guys!
Send us prayer requests if you have them!

Love in Christ,
Tim and Randy :)
