Yesterday Ben received word that he passed his PhD Latin literature comprehensive exams. Congratulations, Ben! He sat for the test a few weeks ago, and this is one major hurdle down on the way to his PhD! He still gets to look forward to comps in Latin translation, Greek lit, Greek translation, and a special author test, along with his thesis. He already has some good ideas for the thesis. Way to go, Ben!
Obviously, unlike his physical prowess, he continues to receive affirmation that Classical studies is his calling! May the Lord have a particular, and even peculiar, place in His kingdom for this classicist!
And speaking of his physical state, thank you to all who prayed for Ben! It appears his fall resulted in sprains and bruises, but no breaks, and he is already feeling much better!

Congratulations to Ben. What an accomplishment! How wonderful it is that he has the opportunity to go deep into the area which he loves to learn about.
I also enjoyed the wedding pictures (your dress was perfect, Chris!) but didn't mention it before. I was praying and rejoicing with you and with Lynn on that special Saturday. Yes, you are very blessed!
