Moving Tomorrow!!

Tomorrow is the big move!  We are leaving Macclenny @ 5am and driving to Miami then flying to Honduras. We will be going with a team (the RRC youth) and staying with them on the property. Then next week a new team will come and we will minister with them too. The following weekend we will go to Copan for language school!. Please pray for the two weeks as the teams minister to the people around the property. Pray that many will come to know Jesus as Savior. Pray for the youth, many have never been, pray that it will be a life changing week. 
Please pray for George and I at language school, please pray that we will learn the language quickly by Gods grace. Pray for Elias too that he will pick up the language and also that he will have a playmate there at school.
We love our family and friends. God has blessed us greatly. Please pray for us daily that we will continually follow Gods will and that we grow in Him each day. We love you guys and are so thankful for you.

Commissioning Service

We had a GREAT day yesterday! It was Homecoming at church (59 years!) and the church had a commissioning service for us. The service was very special, very encouraging and humbling. We appreciate all the people that committed to pray for us and support us. We had a great time of fellowship and a very sweet time of prayer. 
We only have five days until we leave! We have been moving things out of the house and packing. We are just enjoying time with our family and friends. God is good and so faithful!

20 Days and Counting!!

We have set a date to move for June 20th! We are so excited! We have a lot to do before we go, so we ask that you would be praying for us. We need to sell our car (that is one of the main things), we have to pack up, and get things straight in Honduras too. But we know that God will provide and that He will give us wisdom. Please keep us in your prayers that we will follow Him and trust Him. We are hanging out this week at the lake with the Johnson family and it has been very nice just relaxing!

Nehemiah 9:6-8

How great is our God! I am thankful that God is faithful and that He always keeps His promises.
You are the LORD, you alone.You have made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them; and you preserve all of them; and the host of heaven worships you. You are the LORD....and you have kept your promise, for you are righteous.

5/12/09

We had a great weekend! Mothers Day was very special. We cooked for the Johnson side of the family at our house and had a great time (although we missed not getting to see Mrs Kaye!) George and I are both blessed with wonderful godly mothers and we are so thankful for them! 
We are trying to prepare to leave at the end of June-we have a lot of things to get done before then. We ask that you will be praying that we sell our vehicles soon! We are trying to focus on getting them sold to get us a huge step closer to moving! Also please be praying that George and I will daily grow closer to God and that He will be preparing us along and along for the move. We know that everything is in His time and all for His glory. 
Please also pray for a lady that I work with. Her stepson passed away last Friday. He has two small children. Please pray for this family that they will seek God in this difficult time.

Fun Fun!!!

Sorry that I am just now getting to write about last weekend but we do not have internet at our house so it is a little difficult to blog sometimes. We had a great time in Gastonia this past weekend! It was very busy but full of fun things! We got there late Thursday night then Friday we hung out with the family. Uncle Phil, Aunt Ginger, Emily, Elizabeth and Katie came from Virginia for the weekend too! We spent most of the day at Paw Paw and Maw Maw's house then Friday night we went to the Relay for Life at a local school. That was a very special time. Saturday our family held a party for us at Paw Paw's. It was great to see friends and family that we haven't seen in a while and to see some people that I hadn't ever met. There was lots of food and great company. We were very blessed by the gifts of cards, letters, and money. We want to thank all of you who got a chance to come and those who gave. It is a great blessing to be encouraged and to know that there are people praying for us. Sunday morning we went to our brother-in-law's church Foundation of Freedom Ministries. Then spent more time with family that afternoon. Sunday night we got an opportunity to speak to the youth at South Point Baptist Church in Belmont. AJ Main is the youth pastor there. AJ was George's youth pastor for some years. We were able to share about our future ministry in Honduras. We pray that we will eventually have a chance to minister with the people of South Point in Honduras. We met some really solid people and appreciate their encouragement. God really blessed us during our time in Gastonia. We are thankful for our family there and the new people that we got to meet.
I am still learning things about how to work this blog but we would like to hear from you either by comments on the blog or by email. Well we hope you have a great night!
