Well, one week ago we left our NC home to drive to our TN home. We arrived safely... thank you for your prayers!! Today when we were driving "home" from an outing, Wesley asked if we were going to our old home... and I had a hard time trying to figure out which house he meant since in the last month we have lived in three houses... our "old" house in SC, our "new" house in NC, or our "July" house here in TN! It is times like that when I grieve the idea of my kids having ONE place they consider home. BUT then I remember that God has called us to this. Our family is no surprise to Him, and He is in control. Besides... we should NEVER consider this Earth our home... we're just passing through trying to keep our eyes on things eternal. Well, I didn't mean to go there... back to the update!
We have been extremely busy this past week with seeing family, speaking in a combined Sunday school class (THANK YOU!!), doing some ministry work (on the computer), making phone calls, getting settled... and all the other things that go along with running a household with 5 kiddos. We still have lots of phone calls & e-mails to make & send, more family & friends to see, and I can already feel that time is running out! =0(
As of now, we plan to leave here August 1st or 2nd. This will put us arriving in Texas on August 2nd or 3rd (Olivia's birthday)... appropriate since she was BORN in Texas!
If you'd like to get together with us and say goodbye (here in TN or TX)... please contact us! If you'd like to hear more about our ministry and how you can be involved... please contact us! If you'd like for us to share our ministry with your small group on a Sunday or any other day of the week... please contact us!!
To contact us, you can comment here, message me on fb, or e-mail me.
Have a blessed day!
