Happy Thanksgiving

We woke up to a "white" thanksgiving day! It was Johnny and Chrissy's first taste of how cold it really gets out here. -And this is the doe that is hanging in the tree of the playground at school...it's hunting season!!

Trip to Saginaw

We had the opportunity to learn about how New Tribes started. It was really great to see the heart of the men who started it and their vision. We saw that God is the same throughout the generations. He raises the same passion and heart in believers- to make him known- to the ends of the earth. The church we visited was Cycil Dye's(one of the founders on NTM) back in the 40's and he was martyred in Bolivia with 4 other men while trying to spread the gospel to a group of tribal indians. The older lady in the picture is his daughter, Betty. She told us many stories and shared letters from her father and mother. We had a great time and the Lord just continues to affirm us to be a part of tribal church planting.

Justin and Joseph, they became instant friends.

He is the great great grandson of Cycil. And he

had just finished going through the training with

NTM in England! So he had some fun things to

tell us about that whole experience. His goal is to raise support over these next 2 years and than head to China. He will be going there through creative access to a place where you can't normally go- to a "closed" country. We are really excited for him and i think we made a new friend!!.** Oh and Justin spoke in front of the church for 3 minutes and did awesome. I didn't realize what a gift he has for public speaking.

Fun at New Tribes!!

We have been up to alot...

These are our Dorm Kids. We had a

scavenger hunt and an ice cream night! And we even all fit into our little place.

**Emily and me just bonding together. She is so beautiful and is growing so much everyday. We love her so much and are going to spend as much time with her as we can. They are going home to Germany in just 3 weeks.

I'm 28 weeks now!!

It is crazy to think that a baby's been growing inside me for 6 months. I am a little nervous about the whole HAVING a baby thing- but i've got time to get used to the idea. I am feeing good, just kinda big.
