After Taylor, Amanda, Kevin and I and many helpers, we were ready for them. We even had a few moments where we were able to call Lindsay and Chris and all pray for the new house and it's residents together.
They're Here!!! |
Lining up to welcome the buses; Lilly was ready too! |
Then the children sang special songs and we all prayed for the new families. Finally we got to bring them into their new home. The children were so kind and respectful but I think at the same time they were very excited for their new place.

We had prepared toiletry totes, personal boxes with goodies, new clothes and a new Bible. Each child also had either a baby doll or soft soccer ball pillow and a stuffed animal. Before we knew it they were trying on clothes and digging through everything.

Then they explored the new toys and games. It was all so wonderful and exciting that I really find it hard to explain. The Lord blessed us and them in such a mighty way that day.

We will continue to post when we can (there are 7 computers in the house this week) as it has been difficult to sometimes connect. Thank you for your prayers. Today we meet our CampLIFE kids and begin a week long time of fun and sharing the Gospel. Please pray for that as well as our confidence in the Lord to work through us. Satan does not want that to happen.
