I thought I would let everyone know how things have been going.

Christina, Daniel and I are all doing well. Christina is tired and ready for school to be out. She has been undergoing a great deal of dental work. They are pulling some teeth, fillings, corns and dentures.

Daniel will be 3 in December. He is still trying to get the hang of this potty training stuff. He has been talking a lot and singing: Jesus loves me, the B-I-B-L-E, the wheels on the bus. He is really excited about Christmas and loves Christmas trees. He has already opened one of his gifts and we rewrapped it.

We are approaching the final weeks of our fall semester at ABC. I have learned many great things about God, the Bible, myself, American history, speech, grammar and missions; however, I am a little disappointed in myself this semester, because I have not worked as hard as I have in the past. I have sat under, I believe, one of the greatest professors so far in my college experience. She has taught me so much and has been a great challenge to me in my spiritual life.

We recently joined Tabernacle Baptist Church, which is where we feel is going to be a great place to worship, grow and serve. The pastor and his family are wonderful examples to all. His sermons are powerful, challenging and thought provoking and he loves the lost and has a vision. He has been on several mission trips to help train national pastors in India. Most importantly they pray for and support our ministries.

My family and I have been holding worship services at Eden Terrace Assistant Living Home for about six months. We have thoroughly enjoyed this ministry and have seen a lot of fruit. We have an average of 10-15 in attendance each week and have seen at least one profession of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. I preached a sermon called,"The self-righteous Pharisee and the humble publican" and challenged them to come to me after the service and tell me if they had trust Jesus as their savior. After there service, Gene, one of the faithful ladies came to me and told me that she had trusted Jesus as her personal savior.

This work is challenging physically, spiritually and emotionally. A few residents are in their mid to late nineties and a few are 100. Some of them have Alzheimer or Dementia and are slowing losing their memory. It is painful to build relationships with them and then watch them slowly go down hill. I have learned so much about God, the Bible, preaching and evangelism in these past six months.

We are planning to be in Mobile, Alabama to visit family friends from December 12-22. Please pray that God would open the door for us to go and that he will keep us safe as we travel.

Oh Turkey day Oh Turkey day!! Oh wait, we eat HAM!!!!

Well today was Thanksgiving, and as usual we celebrated it with my family. My mom makes the Ham, Stuffing, Mashed and Fried Potatoes. I make the deviled eggs, dessert, veggie, sweet potatoe and green bean casserole, and this year brought the rolls. All in all it was a good day. It was definitely a time to be thankful!! We have so much to be thankful for. Josh has awesome health, I have a wonderful husband and a healthy little boy. Please pray for my mom as she broke her pinky toe this morning. I am posting just a few photos of Thanksgiving as I did not get to take very many. We will be in Mobile the 12-22 hope to see everyone there!!

Update on photos.

I thought I would let everyone see some updated photos of us. I haven't taken any photos until recently due to not knowing where our camera Charger was. Here are just a few. I am posting another one with photos of Thanksgiving. Love ya'll!!

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I have awesome, great tremendous news... I found my battery charger to my camera, BEFORE Daniel's 3rd birthday and before Christmas. I am soo happy. God is so good... and on that note I must say that a teacher of mine at school showed our class these verses I Peter 2:13 Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;
14 Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.
15 For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
16 As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.
17 Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
18 Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.

Whether you were a McCain voter or an Obama voter it makes no difference now. Obama is our newly elected president, and according to my bible we must be into sumission to them except when it goes contrary to what our Bible tells us. I guess when that happens we will be martyered. But anywho.. I hope that everyone is doing great!! We love and miss everyone...
