Enjoy the pictures...







Some of these pictures were taken when we first came to the Carolinas. We stayed the first week with Daniel and Candice and then moved into the townhome! The neighbor boys at Daniel's home came by one day to wash their car. They love Daniel!
The deer came right to our back porch!

We miss Brock....

Rebekah sent this picture from Manton! Brock found our picture and Rebekah snapped his!

Merry Christmas 2007
Volume 5

"Behold, I stand at the door and knock.
If any man hears my voice and opens the door,
I will come in to him and will sup with him and he with me."
Revelation 3:20
Year in Review: Christmas letter #5, Anniversary #4, Address #3,
Family wedding #2, New Job #1
Merry Christmas! I love the verse above. Not only does Jesus knock and stand patiently at the doors of our hearts to seek a personal relationship with us, but He desires for us to open the door of our hearts and listen to His voice on a daily basis so that He can come in and fellowship with us. What a great time of the year to celebrate His birth!
We can hardly believe it is December (where is the snow?) and the start of the Christmas season. We've had three addresses this year... have you lost track of us yet? As most of you already know, God quickly opened a door for us to move to the Carolinas on Oct. 26, 2007. Jason applied, interviewed, and accepted an in-house attorney job at the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association in Charlotte, NC, within a matter of days! Before the job opening, we were in the midst of a missions conference at our church and we had just sung, "I'll go where you want me to go." Well, the Lord told us WHERE the very next day and we WENT two weeks later!
A year for FLYING...

A year for MOVING...

  • We started the year in our small one-bedroom apartment at 946 Dewey Street, Lapeer, MI;
  • We rented a home 1 mile away at 367 Wildflower Ln.;
  • We are currently renting a condo in South Carolina! (No more boxes, please!!!)

Once again, a huge blessing for us as a couple was serving and attending Hunters Creek Community Church. So many people gave us letters of encouragement, goodbye gifts, and well wishes as we headed for the Carolinas. I found it hard to leave the precious 54 piano students with a 2 week notice, but the Lord has already given me several students in SC as well as an accompanying job at a Fort Mill high school. We have found a great church family: Calvary Church in Charlotte, NC, and Jason just loves his job and all the people at BGEA!

We expect some visitors as we have plenty of room and a golf course in our back yard, so y'all come and visit soon, OK?
