Steve and I at the wedding in Dallas
ItsNovember already!!!!
I cannot believe its been since July that I blogged. The past few months have flown by like crazy. Where do I even begin??????
Ok here we go ..............
In August Jim and Ann Cagle asked Steve and I if we would be interested in taking over Harvest Ministries, a small christian retreat center just north of Columbia Ms. After thinking it through and praying about it we said yes. Steve is now the director of ministries and I am on the board. Jim and Ann are transitioning out over a short time. ( not sure how long we need for that, we love them and dont really want them to leave)
Since then we have planned a Womens retreat that took place just a few weeks ago in Oct and we have a Youth Ministers retreat planned for the first weekend in December.
Since we took over many weekend retreats from area churches have been booked and many more are planning to book. We are having sooooo much fun with this!
In addition to Harvest we still have our Three Fold Ministry.
The last week of Sept. we went back to India for 10 days. That was a great opportunity. It was my 2nd time and Steves 3rd in the past 18 months. The orphanage is finished except for the showers . WE stayed in the same hotel as before but this time we were able to give out 35 Bibles to employees who came to our room to quietly profess that they "are christian too" That was my favorite part of the whole trip!!
On the family side of life,.....Hunter and Nikki are engaged YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The wedding will be either in August or Sept in NYC. Hunter still has one more year at Nyack and then on to seminary. Nikki will be going to nursing school.
Alyssa's dance studio was chosen to dance in the Macy's day parade so she and Bo are in NYC right now and tonight they are spending it at an improv with Hunter and Nikki.
Bo is doing well in New Orleans Seminary and is the youth minister at Pineview church.
WE were able to go to Baltimore for Gareths first birthday. Rachel and Justin are doing well there. Justin loves his job with Grainger and Rachel is now able to work from home wed-fri. and goes into the office in DC Mon and Tues.
We went to Dallas in Sept for Lauren"s ( my niece) wedding. That was beautiful!!!!
Three Fold had its big cookout at Rayburn correctional last weekend. WE served 1000 hamburgers to the inmates and had over 750 voluntarily come to the 2 worship services.
Well , I think thats about it.
Jacquelyn will graduate in Dec. and we are going to a party for her on the 17th that is being given by Fran at the Backdoor Cafe as a thankyou for Jacquelyn working for her catering business.
Please be praying for Ryan and his family as at this time he is still out of work. He has gone on a few interviews and we hope this works out well for him. Emery also turned 1 this year. She and Cameron had their parties in Birmingham on the same weekend.
Ok Im going to attempt to post pictures now. Of course they will come before this post because Im blog challenged.
