January Updates :)

One Mission: Galveston had two weeks of non-stop volunteers!! One of the groups was simply a group of students from NYU that just "wanted to come help". None of them were Christians (in fact, two were Muslim), but they got exposed to the power of Christ and the love He wants to show them. (And they LOVED Steve!!) In fact, one of the Muslim guys that Steve formed a relationship with (and is talking to on a daily basis) came to the realization that "something is missing". Steve asked, "Something missing in your experience at One Mission?" He responded by saying, "No, Steve, something is missing in my life."

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Two homeowners who were having to move into their uninhabitable house after running out of money for a hotel were able to get one room complete in their home so that they were able to keep warm through this cold weather!!! Praise God!!! More work continues to be done as well as more work piling up awaiting volunteers. Some of the groups even brought some donation money to OM:G so that some utility bills could be paid!!! PRAISE GOD AGAIN!!!

On to the fam...

Our crazy little Malachi is turning 2 YEARS OLD on the 27th!!!! AHHH!!!

Zeek is growing every day!!! He will be 3 months on the 25th!!!! AHHHH!!!!

Malachi still loves to eat his sand...mmmmm......

Our baby Zeek demonstrating his newest trick: playing with his tongue! :)

We met with the NAMB director for Texas (North American Mission Board) and have filled out the necessary paperwork to possibly get accepted into their "Adopt-A-Missionary" program. We are awaiting someone to come back from vacation and process our applications. Please pray for God's hand to move quickly in this! We know His timing is perfect...we would just "prefer" it to be quick. Haha.

Keep checking back on the blog for updates! It's getting harder and harder to update right now, but I'm trying! As soon as I change one poopy diaper and sit down to start typing, I hear another poopy diaper being created from across the room...oh, the joyous sounds of two boys!! :)

Living and loving the call,
