Send-off party for Tera Weyer

Staples native Tera Weyer will be traveling to the Arab World in the near future, where she plans to live for two years to learn Arabic. “I believe this is where God wants me and I live to obey, serve and glorify Him,” she said recently. Pictured at a send-off party for Tera  Dec. 30, at the Assembly of God Church in Staples are, from left, Mike and Joy Weyer of Staples, Tera’s parents; Tera Weyer; Tony and Renee (Weyer) Paskewitz and their baby, Grace, all of Staples; and Tera’s brother, Jason Weyer of Fargo, N.D.
