2nd Anniversary

hi friends! my computer is definitely not cooperating and i can't get it to use any caps. so you will have to bare with me. any way, we have had another busy week. we celebrated our church's 2 year anniversary on monday. it was a wonderful time and were so excited to see how much we had grown in 2 years. we looked back at the beginning of our time here and realized we started with just about 6 people and today we have around 40 regulars and we can have up to about 60 if everyone comes. god has definitely done a work in our area. praise him!!

we visted a church in our new area just last night. it is like our church was in the beginning; just a few families meeting together. it was a precious time and we enjoyed getting to know these new believers. we look forward to helping them grow this body of believers in a few months when we move there. please pray that this transition will go well.

on a personal note, we have enjoyed our new puppy! he is so cute and fun and it proving to be quite the smartie! his name is max but we often call him hoodini. when we leave our home to go into town for our weekly shopping we put him in our kitchen. our kitchen doesn't have a door so we have had to find a way to block off the doorway. we have only succeeded to keep him in the kitchen one time out of about 10. everytime we walk in the door he just smiles at us like," yep, i got out again!" the best part of it is he never does anything bad in the house while we are gone. he doesn't chew on things or mess up the house in any way. i keep saying we just need to let him free in the house but greg says it is part of the challenge. of course it is one we are losing! enjoy the pics! love to all! missy
