Our Time in Florida

As our time in Florida comes to a close we'd like to write a little update to let you know how our first month of fulltime support raising went. Can we just say that God is AWESOME?? He is so faithful and we have seen Him move in amazing ways since we started our journey to Uganda. Here are a few updates:
  • We have raised almost 25% of our financial support!!
  • We have many people committed to praying for us during our time in Uganda!
  • We have been able to introduce many people to International Justice Mission and see them get as excited about their work as we are! Some have expressed an interest in working with IJM themselves! How cool is that!
  • We have been able to spend alot of quality time with friends and family which has been fun and refreshing!
Our booth at the FBC Jax Mission Fair!

Drew could talk about IJM all day long! =) We are both so passionate about their work!

Isaiah's first birthday party

We brought our little pumpkin to the pumpkin patch!
As we prepare to head back home on Monday morning we'd like to say a big THANK YOU! to every church that has allowed us to come and speak, every Bible study and Sunday School that has listened to our presentation, every family who has invited us into their home or taken us out to eat and listened to us speak. We have enjoyed fellowshipping and sharing with each and every one of you! Thank you also to all our friends and family for blessing us in more ways than we can count since we have been here! We have truly been confirmed about our calling during this last month and we look forward to watching God at work in the months to come.

May The Lord Be Praised!
