  Hi, Sarah,
  
  Here is a quick note to say hello and to introduce myself. This is Lonnell Johnson. I’m not sure if we have met, but there is a strong possibility that we may have years ago somewhere along “The Way.” Recently I heard from Matt Miller, my dear friend and beloved brother. He suggested that I write and say a few words. Matt and I have been corresponding steadily over a year, and our exchanges have been lively and solidly grounded in the Word of God and our mutual desire to be a blessing to the Body of Christ. The Way Corps site has been a glorious opportunity to connect and reconnect with so many wonderful believers from across the globe, including this present connection with you from the “Land of Down Under.”
  
  I’m not sure if Matt informed you that I am presently working on a collection of poetry which I would like to publish. For a number of years I taught composition and literature on the collegiate level. In fact, my calling as a college professor goes back to the Way College of Emporia, where I first taught New Testament History in 1976. That experience ignited a passion to teach, which still burns brightly. In fact, that may be where we met long, long ago. In any case, Matt is working with me in completing a collection of original poetry which I intend to call Immortalized in a Sonnet: Selected Poetry from a Son to His Father. Overall my poetry reveals a fascination with various kinds of poetic expression, particularly the sonnet, this classic form, which having lived in England, you would also appreciate. One of the last pieces in the manuscript was inspired by Matt’s intense desire to bring wholeness to a somewhat fractured situation. When I completed the work, I saw its application to my life and to so many other like-minded believers. I trust it will be a blessing to you as well.
  
  May this year continue to unfold in beauty as a fragrant rose in a garden of God’s delight.
  
  Blessings,
  
  
  
  
  A Reminder: God Is Faithful
  
  For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
  Hebrews 6:10
  
  For Matt Miller, my beloved brother, faithful friend, and fellow bondslave in the Lord
  
  The good deeds that you have done may not be extolled
  When the fervor of God’s love has long since grown cold.
  Some quickly forget all the good that you have done
  And fail to recall that you were the only one
  To answer the call, seek the Lord and intercede.
  Time after time you were the one to meet the need.
  When others were busy and chose to walk away,
  You were there and remained in the thick of the fray.
  In dark times when words of thanks are distant memories,
  Recall that God knows all things, for He alone sees
  Your labor and saves all the tears that you have shed.
  Our Father is ever mindful of how you serve,
  And He shall reward you beyond all you deserve.
  As you strive to finish your course, have no regret:
  Our God is faithful--He will never forget.
  
  Lonnell Johnson

  Sarah, glad to see you here and that you joined the 15th Corps group. How wonderful that you are a world traveler. I am teaching piano and voice lessons in my home and started a family recently who moved here (Williamsburg VA) from Australia. They've been telling me about the kangaroos on the roads and other stories. God is faithful no matter where we are! Looking forward to the Return, Myrna

  Oh, forgot to tel you that I've been to Kenya 3 times since '99 on mission trips. I call it my home away from home. Linda's going to Uganda on a medical missions trip in three weeks with twenty others from our church. She's been to Haiti with me but never this far and all by her lonesome...well, not really.
  
  Shalom & Charis.

  Hi Sarah,

  Hi Sarah!
  I have wondered what happened to you over the years. It is great to know you are fulfilled and happy. I read the comment by Robert Martinez below. The Way Corps is planning a reunion in 2010. You will notice there is a link to the plans for it on the top of this page- appropriately named: “Reunion 2010." Also check out the 14th and 15th Way Corps pages. Have fun on here and
  God Bless you to the max!
  Tom

  Sarah:
  
  We've been in Alaska for 14 years now. Love it here, it's a beautiful place and has lots of "elbow room."
  
  In Him,
  Linus Mathis
