new week


We had the sweetest day of fellowship yesterday! Meeting was at our house followed by lunch and a celebration of 2 birthdays. Everyone stayed for quite awhile visiting and talking of the Lord. Most were gone by 3:30 and then we got ready to go to our class. We went early to meet a lady. Roy put a add in the little nickle paper for "free christian counseling" we have had 4 calls and two are nearby christians who have no one to talk to. They go to church but everyone there is too busy :( We met Cherly yesterday and will be picking her up for dinner on Tuesday. We are called to live lives of service for Christ. This has been a good reminder for me to die to self and seerve. So often I am wrapped up in my responsibilities here and my family. Pray for us as we make this feeble attempt at serving complete strangers.

Still working on getting the yard ready. we may sod half for now and the rest when we get our 1st time buyers credit.

I tried to post pics on here the other day but blogger would not let me:( will try again today

Wow - what a wonderful idea for helping others! I've learned (by experience) that one does not need education in Counseling but only God's word and his leading to be an effective counselor/friend. Praying God uses you in a mighty way - there are so many hurting people out there.

Love the picture - the kids are getting so big, can't wait to see all of you in July!
