In Other Exciting News...





We are having a mad loss of teeth. I think the last count as of tonight was 5. Caleb will be learning "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth" this year. And by next week, the girls may be learning it with him.

Where are we going next???

We will be leaving the Fort Worth area on October 6th. We are going to Fort Hood, Texas. We will be spending time at the Soldier's Hospitality House. We are so excited to have been invited to come and visit. We will get to train and observe some godly people doing the job we plan to be doing soon.

We are getting close to our goal. Some of you have been waiting to support us, well now is the time. We need your support to go on the field!! We are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and it is thrilling.

We don't have more details outside of that right now. We will let you know more, as we know it!

YOO-HOO, Where Are You??

Here we are. We have been busy the last 3 weeks resting and recharging. We have been sleeping in beds and cooking on an indoor stove. We have been staying with some of our best friends during our time here in Fort Worth. Nice Blessings for sure!!

We have been traveling, speaking, resting, staying up late, having friend time, starting school, visiting with friends, and really being with our brothers and sisters in Christ.

No matter which house we stay at, which church we speak at, we are loving seeing our Christian siblings. We enjoy seeing all the different landscapes, and how God makes each person and place different. It is a miracle to sit back and view.

Here are a couple of photos from our time. Somehow, I didn't make enough pictures!!

Packing confession

I thought I would confess that sometimes this moving from campsite to campsite, house to house, can be trying on me. The funny thing is it is only on the day we have to pack the suitcases. It has gotten much better, and in fact we were just laughing about it with the Hall family the other night. Come to find out, Chris doesn't enjoy putting all the luggage in the car. It kinda makes him cranky too. So this is who we are. A Mom and a Dad, Husband & Wife duo who really don't like pack up day. How about you? Does packing day stress you and your family out?

Drinking from my Saucer

The funds for the car repair came in. The wonderful mission organization that we work for graciously stepped in and helped us. In addition to that the girls are being allowed a special treat with friends. And we have the opportunity to go visit and see the Hospitality House in Fort Hood. God is alive, well, and still moving in the hearts and lives of his people!!

Lake Weatherford - Boating Fun











This week we are staying at our friends Lake House. We have enjoyed the rest and beauty of the Lake. In the meantime our van is in the shop and we are waiting to hear how much the Air Conditioning is going to cost us. We have been thankful for our new cell phone that doubles as a WiFi hotspot as we have been able to stay connected to our emails and facebook. We use those two along with our blog as a means to stay in touch with our friends and supporters. We will be staying with friends who live on campus the rest of the week, and will be meeting with people on that side of Fort Worth. Plan to see my brother every day as he works 5 minutes from my friends house. Pray that God will keep the contacts coming in for us as we get closer to our goal.

Being Patient When you feel Antsy

I have wondered how I can have such patience when I am antsy to get our Hospitality House. I know that there are some days when I am a little more anxious to go than other days. And I would certainly like a well laid out schedule and plan for our life. But God has yet to reveal all the details that are coming for us. And do you want to know why I am not anxious? I have Peace. The peace of the Holy Spirit that we are exactly where we need to be doing exactly what we are suppose to be doing. I pray that no matter where you are in life, no matter if you are out on the road support raising or not, that you are seeking to be where the Holy Spirit wants you. Cause this is a great place to be!
