Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
We would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We will be traveling to the dirty south for Christmas. I am so thankful for what God has done this past year and I am looking forward to what He has in store for 2009. I would like for you to remember somethings while I am gone.
1. Don’t take a break from praying. We can’t afford that. You may have to go to a back room or go for a walk to spend time with God. Waking up at 5:30am or6am is what works for me the best. Usually people don’t wake up that early,but also remember that means you can’t stay up past midnight either. You can take a vacation from your job,but you can’t take a vacation from God or His presence.
2. Go to a christian church somewhere to worship corporately. One other thing about this don’t compare where you go to church during this time with your church that you normally go to. You are there to worship not to say well my church is better.
3. Witness to someone. People seem to be receptive during this time of the year. God is putting you somewhere where you can tell people about Him. I would love to hear about the people that are saved because of you being obedient to Him.
4. Study the Word. So that means when you are packing don’t forget to pack your Bible with you. If guest are coming over leave your Bible out and use it. What would be awesome is that you are able to show someone what God showed you this year in His word.
These just are a few things I am going to be trying to do, so hopefully this helped you. We love you guys and we are so glad that you are in our lives. We pray that God will keep His hand of protection over you and your family during this time of the year. We love you and we hope that you have a wonderful time with friends and family. We love you !

Oh man I went north for the winter. Maybe I wasn’t supposed to do that? Oh well. I’m still a yankee at heart apparently. And shall be a proud one again in May. Tomorrow I’m going to the city! I can’t wait! Church got cancelled Sunday. I was so sad. Pray for my family for a safe trip home please!

Haha. I hope it was warm for you guys too. BUT I HOPE IT SNOWS IN NC WHEN I GET BACK! I forgot how big of a pain snow can be. It’s all in the way and gets dirty extremely quick.

Yeah Def some good insiders for us on the break! I cannot wait to tell you guys about Our family’s experience on Christmas giving presents to Old people! It was so great! lol just knowing that we were spreading the love of Jesus to people who may not have the joy of the season was amazing even when some of the old people didnt really care that it was christmas! We didnt get a Slammed door in our face! Old people are just so funny and just because they are old doesnt mean that they are not searching for the truth! Its just not the youth hungry for him Old people get hungry to even if they dont eat that much!!!
well can not wait to hear about how everyones christmas went ect! Hope it was fun in BAMA psquared! Anxious to see everyone again!
