Well, we have made the move to the great state of Oklahoma. Been in Edmond, OK for about two weeks now and it looks like we are finally beginning to get settled. Amy has been feverishly decorating the house and I have been checking things off of the lists she makes me daily. I just finished putting together an elliptical machine...we'll see if we use it. We've painted a good portion of the house and it's beginning to feel like our home. Sam is doing great and loves his new house. He's growing up and doing great and loves to be near his grandparents. They have already done a great job spoiling him.
Tomorrow is a big day for our family. We head for the very first time to Penn Avenue Church of the Nazarene to begin what we believe is the next step in our ministry journey. We will have an opportunity to work with the poorest of the poor in OKC and make a huge difference in the life of this faith community. There are certainly some reservations, however. For example...how will we put food on the table? Currently, there is no salary package. This we know--God will provide. He has already provided a great home to live in and neighbors that we have already begun talking to. I realized today that a guy I used to work with at A Chance to Change Foundation lives just a couple of houses down the street! It's a small world, but a world that desperately needs people to live out faith. God help us. Be back soon.

As I read your blog today all of the memories flod my mind of the day that we packed up our lives and moved to Guatemala. All the uncertains and all the questions were somehow overcome each day by God providing us with everything and more than we needed. We met some of the most incredible people while we were there and had some of the most incredible experiences while we were there. Just remember you are not alone and God will provide!
Thanks Amy, we sure do miss you guys. Your words are encouraging as we know you have been there. Come see us and give your family a hug from us!
