Hello From Utah!

I just wanted to take the time to say hi to everyone and let everyone know that we are currently in the Salt Lake Valley in Utah. We have been enjoying our visit with Brooks’ mom and are beginning to see things take shape. We do have a couple of prayer requests. First of all, we are meeting with some pastors and groups over the next few weeks. Please pray that God would give us the words to speak while we share our vision and heart for the Missionary Kids at RVA. Also, we have 3 different open houses coming up where we will be sharing about what we are doing. Please pray that people who have been invited will come and that God will open their hearts to the ministry we are doing. Last, but not least, please continue to pray for the kids as they are still adjusting to life here in Utah. They are having fun, but they still miss everyone back in Missouri.

I just looked at the calendar and realized that we have exactly 4 weeks from today to have all of our monthly support raised. WOW!!! I know that God is a gracious God and he will provide. Sometimes in the midst of it all, I still don’t understand how, but I know that “God will supply all our needs according to his riches in glory”.

I will know leave with you with the lyrics of a song that Brooks and I have found which has really touched us both where we are at. It is written by Brian Littrell and the song is called “Over My Head”.

I tried to figure it out
Time and time again and time again
I guess there’s just some things I’ll never understand
‘Cause Your ways aren’t our ways
But deep down in my soul, down in my soul
There is one thing I know that I know

I’m in over my head
Right where I wanna be
I’m so lost within Your love
The love that always covers me
So high, so deep, so wide
A strong and cleansing tide
My soul has found a place to rest
I’m in over my head

I’ve been holding on
Now I’m letting go, just letting go
Gonna let Your love carry me away
I don’t know where I’m going
But I’m surrounded by the truth
And I can feel the current pulling me
Deeper into You

I’m in over my head
Right where I wanna be
I’m so lost within Your love
The love that always covers me
So high, so deep, so wide
A strong and cleansing tide
My soul has found a place to rest
I’m in over my head

You see me for who I am
You did reach out Your hand
You made me understand
That Your love has always covered me
