Excitement runs deep!

Sorry for the delay in posts.  We have been on a whirlwind of a summer!  There has been much to do before sending Hannah off to college and preparing for the next two weeks in Africa.  Since the last post, things have changed!  David was not joining us, but GOD!!  His flight is made!  At our last fundraiser at Sonic ( which was unplanned, we got a call at the last minute to do it), we had a complete stranger give us $1100. He left that morning and came back that afternoon and his wife sent him back:)  We have had dear friends do these fundraisers with us to make them possible and are forever grateful!! 

This has showed us so much about God deadlines and His provision.  Im thankful that we didn't let go of our dream nor our faith.  Personally, I couldn't have imagined this trip without my husband and for him to be a part of something so significant in his children's lives. We covet your prayers that we can be a coin in His pocket spent how He chooses.  Please pray for opportunities and open doors.  Most of all pray that these precious people will know their value and the love of an amazing Heavenly Father!!

Our last financial need is $564.30 due this Sunday.  Please continue to pray for this provision.
Thank you to each of you for walking this amazing journey with us.  May God richly bless you in every way!  We love you!

Ask and He will give the nations to you!

Just wanted to update you on our Africa trip.  We shared about Hunter having to pull out for a job, and now David is willing to lay down going with with Hannah, Ashtyn, Ethan and I. My heart breaks over this, because I still know what I heard from the Lord and David is sad, but willing.  I'm not done asking for the nations for our family.  Its the cry of our heart!  Our four flights were made and we still need $4000 to finish our trip by Sunday, July 8th.  One more time the deadline is extended.  God's timing is never too late.  Also we found out that David can still go, but we just have to get his flight on our own and then pay $1500 for the final payment for him.  Believing for airline miles or finances for a ticket for him.  Our daddy God is big, so please agree with us for the heavens storehouse to open.  We will be serving Him soon in Africa and can't wait for this desire to come to fruition after 19 years!!  Blessings!

$4,500 to go!!
