The Millikin family
continue to travel for Jesus. We try to make
at least one trip a year together and
various places closer home. The rest of the
time Jimmy, Shauna and Carli travel on their
own. Marty is full time either with the
whole family or Dad and Mom or Jimmy, Shauna
and Carli. Please keep The Millikin Family
in your prayers that we can reach as many as
we can for Jesus and be a blessing were ever
we go.
