Ok, no one fall out dead cause i am updating so soon since the last one but here i go. This weekend was incredible. It started in Jackson, went to Picayune, and then one to New Orleans. I traveled over 13 hours in the car this weekend and God is awesome. The next time someone thinks that a kids is just a kid ask God. He used some 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th graders this weekend to show love, compassion, and fun through Christ. If you want to know more you will just have to call and let me elaborate. there will be pictures to follow soon.

Sandy also won a ball game tonight and oddly enough she made the winning run!!!

Pray this week for VBS! We had 30 5th and 6th graders and we were not the biggest class. Also keep praying for Jesse and that God will place in the right place because that is where God wants him and not where Jesse just wants to be.

Ok, ok...I have officially been scolded for not keeping up on my blog; therefore, I will try to do better for the 3 faithful readers. Since the last entry we have had the alumni band concert which was soooo much fun. I hope we do that again. We have also gotten out of school for the summer. I am the librarian at the high school and will be working on and off during the summer trying to get my small space to hold the 8,000 books that we own. Bennett and Jana were home this past week. They had the privilege to see Sandy play ball which is always thrilling. It was soo nice to have them home for a little while; however, it makes me long for them to live closer, but at least I know God is in control of what they are doing. In about a week or two they will be moving to the potato capital of the world (i think), Idaho. Bennett will be working with a church there that will be cordinating mission trips to that area and planting new churches. It is a very exciting adventure, but they will need lots of our support from the warmer part of the country. Support can be given first and for most through prayer but also in time and money and any other way that God shows you. Jesse and I will be going to Jackson for a state wide "Welcome Home" thing for the 155th. Please be in prayer for Jesse and I as we search for new opportunities (more about that later...for now just pray). We will be leaving from Jackson to meet my 5th &6th grade choir "Katangello" in Picayune, MS. We will be doing a mission project down there on Saturday and then Sunday we will travel to New Orleans to a small church to do a children's church service. This is a true stepping out on faith project for us. We will return Sunday to start VBS at our own church.

I guess that gets everyone caught up to this point. I don't know why my life always has to be so busy...good thing I like it that way!
