It's a beautiful sunny day on my parents' mountain this morning! Ava and I plan on being here until we leave....the date to leave is still up in the air though!
Our time in Greensboro was wonderful...I got to see so many good friends. I went out with the "Teacher Girls" as I call them, saw my old Bible study friends, and even went to Charlotte to see my awesome friend from Meredith College! I am really enjoying this time I am getting to reconnect with and spend quality time with the people I love. I even got to see my cousins at the Dessert Night I had. The night went very well, and I am praying that some partners were born out of the sharing about Hawaii I got to do.
Now we are back in Black Mountain, and it is beautiful! Next week I have a fundraiser planned for Chick-Fil-A that I am really excited about. Please be praying that it goes well for us. Also, if you are in the area, please come out and support us! It is on Hendersonville Rd. in Asheville. June 7th. from 5pm to 8pm. It is really going to be fun! All you have to do is eat there to support us.
Also, coming up on June 15th, my mom and I are planning a house concert for the band "Carolina Story". I am also going to use the night to talk about the school in Hawaii. I'll put more of the details on Facebook about this.
I also want to plan a dessert night down in Wilmington. Right now I am thinking of June 26th....but I don't have anywhere to have it yet, so let me know if you would be interested in hosting or just attending!
So, I have a lot planned for this month! Please, please keep praying for us! We have a long way to get to our financial goal....but speaking of that....this week I received another $100 dollars in monthly support!!! So now we have $200 of our $1200 in monthly support!
God is working for us, and fighting for us!
This is such a time of growth in trusting my Papa. It is so much harder to believe that God is right beside us, when it seems like He isn't doing anything! But He is....we just don't see what He is doing....and HE IS THERE! He is standing right beside us saying..."I'm here! I am right here! Trust me!" I have been reminded of this as I am reading the Old Testiment and the book GREEN by Ted Dekker. In the OT the Isrealites were constantly questioning God's provision for them, and yet God was constantly speaking to Moses "I am here! Why are they doubting me?"
In the book GREEN, (which if you haven't read this series of books you are truly missing out) the people are waiting for Elyon, or God, to show up...and they have forgotten that He is always with them!
I hope that whatever you are praying for today, you remember that your Papa, your Father, your love is standing right beside you!

Rock and Roll Brook-a-lee-doo! And Ava-poo!! It's the first thing that came to mind. It usually is. I have problems. But I'm so glad you guys are doing well and encouraged as you learn to trust God to continue writing the story you are living. I'm proud of you for living this adventure! I'll have to try Ted's books sometime. Love you all!
