A few weeks ago Gordon & I returned from a prosperous trip to Honduras. Our goal for this trip was to find a rental home, vehicle, and furniture in just a week & 1/2 time! God blessed and we were able to do just that. Once all the preparations were made, we started to anticipate our arrival as a family and start the work God has placed before us.
However, since our return from Honduras a few weeks ago, our time back in Charlotte has been rather eventful to say the least! What started out as a quick, but much anticipated ski trip to the mountains, landed one of us in the orthopedic clinic with a torn meniscus, wearing a boot for the next six weeks.
Days later, one of our mother's fell and broke the bones in both of her heels. She is now wearing boots and she is refined to a wheelchair for the next six weeks. There has also been some sickness within our family as well, all coming at an unwelcome time. Yet, even in that, we recognize God's hand of care. And what satan means for evil, God can use for good. His hand is on each one of us so we will rest in Him!
Please be praying for each one of us (including our families here) as the time to depart approaches in less than a week. We are scheduled to fly out this coming Thursday, March 1st on a early flight! We wait in anticipation to begin this new chapter in our lives as we serve alongside Forgotten Children Ministries in Honduras. Pray also as we adjust to the culture and all that living in a new city entails.
Thanks for your continued prayers & support!!
love,
Gordon, Christy, Jared, Zac, & Wil
