Change in Plans

Scott and I have had a slight change in plans this past week. We found out from our contact that they would like us to wait until September to come (instead of leaving in June like we had been planning). There were a few reasons behind this change, the major one being our contacts are coming to the U.S. in July to fundraise for the orphanage. We are so excited to have them here and are hoping they will get a chance to come visit with our church family as well.  It was a slight curveball from Jesus, but we have honestly come to expect nothing less. He has always known far better than we do what is best for His Kingdom. We were a little thrown at first, our hearts were completely prepared to leave, but we are happy to spend the summer here in our beautiful little beach town. We know the Lord has big things for us here, too. We cannot wait to see what is in store. We love learning to live in the present and are thankful for every reminder that we are not in control and we do not live for ourselves.
We live for the One who gave us life.

Please, keep us in your prayers as we make these changes in our plans and continue fundraising!

A few housekeeping things:
We are planning on keeping our commissioning date the same. The commissioning will be May 25th at 11am at Immanuel Lutheran Church in Bridgman. There will be a potluck luncheon afterward! Please come out and spend time worshiping and talking with us!
We also will be speaking at Immanuel on May 18th at 9am and 11am sharing a little bit of our story and all Jesus has done in us and for us over these past few years.
The rummage sale we were planning will now be held on September 6th from 8am-3pm also at Immanuel in Bridgman.

We have some awesome flyers Scott made floating around with this and more information on them, so be on the lookout for one of them!
