| | So, Maria and I are sitting in a Jersey airport about to head to Ireland for 8 days. We're coming up on one year and it'll be good for us to get away. What a year this has been. Ups and downs but through it all, God's hand and grace have been extended to us in new ways. We have our days and we miss Josiah incredibly but life and our family is great. Ben is getting so big and he's such a joy. God is opening doors for us and helping us like never before.
Just after Thanksgiving I had the opportunity to speak at the SoCal Youth Convention in San Diego. What a great group of young people... all 6000 of them. They are rockin' it out in SoCal. I spoke on the power of not giving up and I believe in Gal. 6:9-10 more than ever before. It's hard and we don't like it in the middle but the confidence and harvest that comes on the backend after paying the price is so worth it.
So, please pray for us. Pray for our trip. We'll be meeting with some church leaders about helping get a Master's going just outside of Dublin. We'll also be up in Derry on Sunday morning with our good friends, the McCourts. Everyone has been so generous and gracious in getting us over there and allowing us some time to reflect and just be. Thank you.
Thanks as well, for everyone who is even aware that we're coming up on a year and for all your prayers. Just knowing that people know what time of year it is for us means so much... you have no idea.
anyway... until next time... much love and God's blessings.
