Nica 11/2009

Our trip has been so awesome so far! God has gone before us as he promised. He truly blessed our "going out" All flights were on time, no turbulence, no problems!

SHEO is great-it is like coming home! Antonieta and Amos have been so gracious to us.

We went to two feeding programs today. Met 4 amazing Christians who have stepped out on faith to obey God. Found the people to share the gospel and pass out the vitamins---how great is our God!!

Orphanage tomorrow--we will actually be feeding the children there too!

Please continue to pray for us and our families back home!

Go Dawgs!!!!

Hug the cone boys when you see them :)

much love

CLF NICARAGUA TRIP

What a week! I forget how the devil tries to get you when you are going to
do what the Lord wants you to do!

This week has been stressful, emotional and i am soo glad God has gotten me through this!

David, MaryBeth and I leave in the morning drive to Orlando, fly to Miami then arrive in Nicaragua about 8:30. Hopefully the old cell phones from the summer will work enough
to let our family know we are safe.

We will be staying with Amos and Antonietta at SHEO.

Friday we go to two feeding
programs in nearby Ginotepe to see if we can find people to ditribute the vitamins
after the people are fed. Please pray specifically that we can find people who will
boldly share the gospel and hand out the vitamins.

Saturday we go to the orphanage ---again to share the gospel and to find others
to share the gospel and pass out vitamins.

Sunday we will feed the children at the farm and go to church services with Pastor
Amos and Antonietts.

Monday morning we leave Nica at 8:30 and arrive back in Orlando (via Miami)
around 3:30. We should be back in Thomasville by 8 and back at work on Tuesday!


Please pray for our safety as we travel by plane and within Nicaragua. Also please keep our family in your prayers. To me the hardest part is leaving your family. I have a woderful mother in law and wonderful parents that help so much. We truly could not do it with out them.

hugs

Believing God

Today i took a HUGE leap of faith---I resigned after 12 years as a RN in the Maternity center at Archbold.....I believe in God but today was about believing
God. He promised to be faithful as he always has and always will be.
I will miss the babies---especially of people i LOVE! but God has taken me
in a totally different direction!

Praise God that he is so patient with us ---he did not give us a spirit of
fear--that comes from the devil.

His mercies are new every morning!

Please pray for our trip to Nicaragua Nov 19-23. also for Dan Spencer as he takes over as president of the GBC and for Tresa as the wife of the pres.
