Hey everybody! I'm Curtis, My lovely wife Cindy and I have three kids, RJ, Brett, and Marlee all of whom will be going to LV this summer again with us. I teach high school mathematics at Peoria High School and this will be my third trip to LV! I am excited to see all my Latvian "family" and to be able to spend time with everyone in Limbazi. Just want to send out a BIG HELLO! to Richards, Lasma, Ieva, Jack, Juris, Arvis, Rlaphs, and all the rest! I would also like to thank everyone who has supported our work in Latvia through prayer and fincial commitments. God had done great things in Limbazi as a result and we are looking forward to seeing what he is going to do this summer...Please pray for this team!

Whut Up Padre?
How you been? I'm sorry I heard you came by to see me to drop off those pics. Sorry but they had moved me to Faith house that night so I didn't get to go to school that morning. I'm still TRYING to look for somewhere to live before court on thursday. I might just end up with sasha in a 1-2 bedroom apartment. NO WORRIES!!! Have fun In Lavia(???) where those hermanas and hermanos of mine need you right now. It's time to teach them and show them like you were to me. They miss you so much and SO DO I, but it's their turn. Have fun and do what GOD would want you to do for those kids. Love you guys and I will keep you up dated. Love You Always. SIncerely, your girl america. P.S. RENA'S BACK WE IN ACTION! IT'S ALL GRAVYYY!!

The "gift" has been moved to another Group Home on 23rd Avenue and Greenway. Lundie got the bus route for school and they've given her buspasses for now. She has her cell. Stacey has been of very little help (surprise, surprise). The lady that does Tammy's position seems very helpful but it is day one; she is driving her to and from work today. The lady who is in charge of the group home, similar to Raquel's position, her name is Pat, and she is the lady who kicked our girl out when she was in this program before. She says she'll just be there a week. She and Sasha found an apt. at Olive Tree. They are cute. I've known people who have lived there. They are putting their paperwork in and the 200 deposit. Hopefully they will hear something soon. Yesterday on moving day, Stacey told her she'd be there to pick her up at 10 AM and that she couldn 't go to class so she missed her English final and math class. She called her English teacher and she will make up her test on Monday. I'm not sure if she got in contact with her math or not. So, that is the update. Will continuing praying for you all. Our hellos to Cindy and the kids. Oh, I told her to start building the relationships with the ladies at the Group Home and show them how she has changed since the last time they knew her. We'll see....I also told her that maybe this is happening so she sees that we ALL need help from people and God; we can't do it on our own. Blessings!

Hi Curtis and the Aylward gang! Hope all is well. It is great to read and see the updates you all post on here. Here is an update from AZ: As of Sunday, our girl will be given a 3 week "visitor's pass" to stay with Sasha. They have bought about $1000 of stuff or the apartment including deposits, etc. Unfortunately, her account is down to $3-400. The pass is good until she turns 18. No other court date has been set. Her PO suggested her felony be dropped to a misdemeanor but the judge wasnt' ready for that yet; however, he did ask her to submit the paperwork should these next 3 weeks go well. So...God-willing, he will sign it then on Aug. 1, she can go down to court to have the file destroyed. Otherwise, she may not be able to live in the apartment as some don't allow felons there. She ACTUALLY called me! She had just finished walking to TASC to drop and taking care of some things; trying to talk with her English professor to be allowed to make up her English test. When she went to the testing cetner on Monday, the test was not there. When she asked her teacher later, the teacher said she was only allowed to do it on Monday. Her GAL gave Chess her card and told the man to call her if he would not allow her to take it. Our conversation wasn't too long, but I was glad she phoned. Also, she called Stacey about some questions and she said Staced told her to stop calling her, that she had helped her enough already. I told Chess to call Jennifer and let her know. If it is too much for Stacey to do her job, then give Chess to someone who cares.
That's about it for now. Will keep you updated. Donna is having a great time in WA with her honey.

She's moved in her apartment. Donna says it looks great. They have set up rules for themselves. Money is tight, but is expected.

Reality is sitting in for our girl. She dropped her math class today. :-( Stacey is not being very helpful. There is a "final" CFT on Friday both Donna and I will be attending.

The videoclips are great of what is happening there. Thanks for keeping us all up to speed!

She got a job at Discover and won't start until she turns 18 (I'm assuming they are waiting to see if the charges go away). Trying to be supportive; I think the money will take the place of schooling....A boy was at her apt. today when I called. Interesting, to say the least. She is relying on Donna.

Curtis & Cindy,

We just wanted to give you encouragment during these last days. We pray that the Lord would give you His strenght, which is greatest! That you would continue to do his work to the last moments you are there, that you would finish this race strong with the only thing to look back on is your amazement of the Lord! May your family be blessed by the Lord for your sacrifice and offering to Him in these past weeks knowing that it is truly a sweet fragrance to Him! May you continue to overflow with love for eachother right now! And that your family is still being focused on and encouraged daily in family time and time with the Lord! May you feel renewed each morning knowing that you are doing that which God has prepared in advance for you to do(Eph 2:10). We love you and are praying for you and the team! God Bless
