March 30, 2010

This past weekend we were in TN.  We were with friends Dwayne and Tina James in Woodlawn, TN, Sunday morning.  In the afternoon, we drove a little bit to Ashland City, TN, to be with Tina's parents, Cecil and Mary Boswell, for the evening service.  We ENJOYED both services and the fellowship was wonderful.

Thanks to all for their prayer support.  We are doing well and keeping busy.

We are enjoying 2 weeks home before heading back to IL for weekend services.

OH.... someone is donating a laptop to us. YEAH!  It should be here tomorrow.

ALSO... pray about the kids' schooling this fall.  We are considering putting them in a small christian school close by.  The preparation of lessons, grading, and recording is getting overwhelming and I'm consistantly behind.  Pray we find one that will work with us and our schedule.  Thanks.

Love you all.  Keep praying!

HELLO!!!  We are still here.

SORRY it has been SO long since we have been here.  STILL having trouble with laptop... aarrgghh!

On March 7th, we were in Ohio with our friends Daryl and Michelle Grimes.  We had a great visit with friends and had great services with Harrison FWB Church and Unity FWB Church.

THEN... Sat. March 13th we headed to MISSOURI!  We spent 11 nights with Joy's family.  We enjoyed our visits.  Joy totally enjoyed her SURPRISE 40th Bday party.  She was thrilled to see friends and family that she otherwise wouldn't have been able to see.  Her sister Lisa totally surprised her by showing up at the party.  WHAT A SURPRISE FOR ALL!

While in Missouri, we had services in Overland, O'Fallon, Fenton, Bridgeton and 2 wac district mtgs and 1 local wac mtg.  Joy had the opportunity to speak at the 3 wac mtgs.

We are home for 2 days and then head out again on Saturday, March 27th.  We are headed to TN and looking forward to seeing some college friends that we haven't seen for approx. 16 yrs or so.   YEAH!

WELL.... one more thing.  Pray for our laptop situation.  It has gone down 3 times already this year.  Praying about the opportunity to get a new one.  Pray we get exactly what God wants us to get and that this one holds out until then.  hahaha  We are a little slow moving when it comes to spending the money.  hehehe

Pray for where God wants us to live when we get to Buffalo.  It is never TOO early to start praying for that!

THANKS for reading.  More importantly.... Thanks for praying!

We are BACK!!!  Laptop went down Feb. 19th.  Sent it into the BIL SHOP to be fixed.  THANK YOU MIKE!!!!
We had services in IL this weekend and AR the weekend before.  We are thoroughly enjoying meeting so many new people and the fellowship with new friends has been wonderful. 
This isn't going to be too long... at friends' house in IL and going home this afternoon.  Thank you to all our friends and family for your prayers.  Our traveling is going well and we have a full schedule through September and even starting to fill up October at this point.  We are looking forward to getting to MO in a couple of weeks.  YEAH!  Pray for Joy as she has some speaking opportunities as well.  She is nervous about them but knows God will supply her with the words that need to be shared.  Darin will be attending the MO Minister's Retreat thanks to Rick Dement and his church.  Darin is looking forward to that time with the men of MO.  We all miss Missouri and all our FWB friends there.

Thanks again for your prayers.  Keep mentioning our names in prayer.
