Picture below taken in late August 2007
at California Baptist University in Riverside.
The Chasteen family moved to California from Illinois in 1998.
Living first in Ontario, then Santa Fe Springs, they now have lived
in Modoc County for almost five years. James, a 2007 Modoc High School graduate,
is home for the summer, after two years at California Baptist
University. Melana graduated (piano major) from Cal Baptist in
2005, and in August she plans to move to
Georgia, where she plans to begin an assistantship in piano
accompaniment, and work toward a master's degree. Josiah
graduduated from CBU in May (trumpet major). He wants to
continue graduate studies toward a teaching credential. (See picture below
of our family at Josiah's graduation, minus Jonathan, and including
our family friend, Wanda Armstrong.)
Jonathan, who has completed three
years at CBU, is currently living in Ohio with his Grand-mother Chasteen, and is working
at a local Kroger store to "pay some bills" and eventually continue
with his education. In his spare time, he has been teaching himself drums,
and also plays guitar and trombone.
Incidentally, James also plays guitar and trumpet--so, yes, it was a
musically noisy household. Marlene says she's not musical, but
she has been a great encourager of our children. Please pray for the Chasteen
family, that the Lord will guide them in His paths
of service.
