the big announcement!

well the process only took FOREVER but i am sooo happy to announce...that we received the call (3 weeks ago now): my husband is officially on staff at a christian camp in michigan!!

we have been searching out a path for ourselves for a LONG time and just saw a bunch of dead ends. we couldnt figure out why both of the houses we made offers on didnt work out (please note: they are both, as of this post, still EMPTY). we didnt understand why we have felt led to bounce from place to place, making friends and then having to leave them. we didnt know how J could use his construction talents without having to work a construction job. and now we do.

we belong at camp.
J's title will be maintenance director, but our whole family will be on call to do whatever needs to be done at any given moment.
we have a home in northern michigan.
and we have made connections at several churches among several states that will hopefully support our ministry.

woohoo!

please be praying for us as we embark into this new chapter of our lives!

what Jesus wants us to do

Romans 6 Dead to Sin, Alive to God   1  What shall we say then?  Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound?  2  By no means! How can  we who died to sin still live in it?  3  Do you not know that all of us  who have been baptized  into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?  4  We were  buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as  Christ was raised from the dead by  the glory of the Father, we too might walk in  newness of life.   5  For  if we have been united with him in  a death like his, we shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like his.  6  We know that  our old self  was crucified with him in order that  the body of sin might be brought to nothing, so that we would no longer be enslaved to sin.  7  For  one who has died  has been set free from sin.  8  Now  if we hav...

letting jillian kick my bum again

Which was my g...
