Sunday Funday!!

Before Church Selfie with some of the kiddos

We had the privilege to drive one of the houses from the shelter to church on Sunday. It was fun to see them all get ready for church in their Sunday best. It was also fun to see the older children help the younger children with their shoes and being sure they were ready to go as well.  

It is amazing how many children you can fit in an L300. It definitely felt like a clown car when they were getting out lol. Check out the video, I think we had 29 people in there!






We're all in (we hope :) )


I've said this before, one of the things that I miss the most about "home" is our church and our church family. We LOVE FBC of Sturgeon Bay and our family there. We haven't found anything like our home church here and maybe we won't. We are still praying that God will show us where he wants us to serve within the church body. One of the songs that we would sing on a regular basis at our home church was the Doxology. We sang it on Sunday for the first time since we have been here. I'm not gonna lie, I had tears streaming pretty good. Hearing the song made me miss "home" a little more. Then I looked over and saw this little guy praising Jesus with all he had. He was singing as loud as he could (off key might I add which was okay because it made me smile and even giggle to myself which helped the tears stop). It made me realize how awesome it is that no matter where we are in this world we can ALL Praise God from whom all blessings flow. I was thankful for that little reminder of "home" and thankful that I get to be with these kiddos and help them see Jesus despite their previous circumstances. To God be the glory great things He has done, and continues to do!
