This is the only way it would let me post :(

Here it is December, where has time gone. I just realized this a.m. I have not posted pics of our new home, where we moved to in May. I am really bad at blogging now :( Preston is doing great! He did have a cold, but other than that, he is doing well! We are so thankful for that.Missie loves Union Bible Academy. She has moved into the dorm so she won't have to drive 1 1/2 hrs/day and during winter it would have been hard. She loves living in dorm and having her friends there. She is in choir and absolutely loves that and travels when they travel. She is maintaining a B average, and that is great! It was a big switch to switch from ACE cirriculum to textbooks, but she has done very well. We love our home, and spending our first holidays in it! Will post some pics.

More news!

We had the most awesome prayer meeting ever! Bro. Travis did the lesson on prayer (how to pray) using A C T S tonight.

A - Adoration - scriptures were read, a song of adoration sang, someone led in a prayer of adoration, then testimonies of adoration were given.

C - Confession - scriptures on confession were read; we sang "Cleanse me, O God." we all got on our knees and confessed to God where we needed help; then if anyone wanted to confess publicly, they did!

T - Thanksgiving - scriptures on thanksgiving were read, song was sung, prayer of Thanksgiving was prayed, then testimonies of thanksgiving.

S - Supplication - scriptures read, song sang, prayer requests given, we all knelt and prayed for the needs of our people!

It was such a heart warming time; God's presence was there; I was truly blessed. We start revival next week, so we are getting prepared as a church.

More breaking news:::: James is flying in on Sept. 10th and stay until the 14th. He called Junior last night and talked to him about liking Missie and wanting to get to know her better. We are very impressed with this young man. But Junior and I felt they needed to meet in person before they get more emotionally involved. So! Needless to say, they are both very excited. I am sure their feet won't hit the ground for a while, lol. We are going to take him to UBC to see the campus and all while he is here, as he is graduating in Dec. and planning to go to UBC in January.
His mom called me this a.m. We had a nice long visit. We feel God has brought James and Missie together. It is truly amazing how they met on facebook by accident, but God makes no mistakes. Missie has grown so much spiritually since we have moved here and physically. She is a young lady now and it is so hard to believe! She is a strong and loving girl. We are very proud of her and her zeal to serve the Lord.

So wanted to update for those who are not on facebook.
