DEAR FAITHFUL PRAYER PARTNERS,
Thank you so much for praying for us. We appreciate it so much. We are so excited; the countdown to Paraguay is getting shorter. Novermber 8th is not that far away. There has been progress in our monthly support and our start up costs. We are praising the Lord for all the ways that He has provided for us and can’t wait to see what He is going to do in the future.
MALACHI TURNS 6
May was a busy birthday month for our family. One special birthday we celebrated, was Malachi’s. This year was his 6th birthday. We cannot believe that six years has alreacy gone by, it just seems like yesterday taht we were bringing him home from the hospital. Malachi was so excited to see his cake, which was decorated by the Incredibles. He received many gifts and was really excited when he saw all the Legos he recieved.
MICHIGAN 2011
The beginning of July we headed out to Munising Michigan, Tanja’s hometown. We went out to spend time with Tanja’s family and spend some time together as a family. We had a great time going to the beach, spending the weekend in Greenbay with great friends, a day at Mackinac Island, and just the times visiting with family and friends. While up there Colton gave a ministry update and devotional for Munising Baptist’s prayer meeting and then sang special music on Sunday morning. We had such a great time relaxing and seeing people that it made it hard to leave. Knowing that it would be our last time there for a long time made our time there more special. On the way home we stopped and visitied with Tanja’s Uncle Rick and Aunt Kathy in the Jackson Michigan area. Then we headed to Miracle Mountain Ranch, in Pennsylvania, to see Colton’s brother Curtis. We can’t wait to do it again.
ANNIVERSARY
At the beginning of the month, on July 10th to be exact, we celebrated 7 years of marriage. We were able to spend it in Munising and Greenbay. We shared the day with our children and some great friends. We have had so many great memories and can’t wait to make some more for many years to come.
MINISTRY UPDATE
We are praising the Lord for the many ways that He has been providing for us. We are currently at 36% of our Recommended Support Level($4700.) and need to be at 50%($2350.) to leave for Paraguay. We have all the finances to purchase the airline tickets we have been looking at and have started on our start up costs. We are so excited about leaving for the field in November 8th. On August 8th it will be 3 months away and it doesn’t even seem real. We have tons of packing to do, many projects to complete, and lots of family and friends to spend time with.
