Ministry Update
The first month of 2011 has come to a close, with the Lord doing some wonderful things for us. In north MS, a man gave us two brand new trailer tires, both of which were greatly needed. We have only two Sundays available between now and the beginning of May, one them due to a cancelation. God has burdened my heart to pray and to trust Him for the greater works promised in John 14:12. Thank you for praying with us that souls would be saved and Christians would be revived.
Family Update
I’m loving California in January. The people here are all apologizing for the cold weather, which happens to be in the 60’s. Ummm... I think I can handle it after such a cold Indiana winter! We made it across the country with only a few mishaps – frozen water in Mississippi, a new water pump in the trailer, a transmission rebuild and a tire blowout in Texas, and some dreadful sickness that gave the children fevers and general malaise for a week. All of the sickness did wreck my school schedule a bit, which is the worst of all the aforementioned mishaps! I am a stickler about keeping a tight school schedule! Anyway, things are on their way to being back on track.
On a personal note, I have started an “everyday blog” about life in general, just not things related to family happenings. Well, I guess it is still family, but just more about my random thoughts and interests than I normally write about in the ministry/family update. Please feel free to visit http://sarahsnotes-rvmama.blogspot.com to find out more. The updates on things are generally a little shorter and more frequent – that is, when I have internet access!
We are glad to be in meetings again. This morning, a little girl was saved in the services, and a young man received assurance of his salvation. I believe we are going to have an amazing week. The people have been praying and fasting in anticipation of what the Lord is going to do, and I think we will see some great answers to prayer. We serve a wonderful God!
I think 2011 is going to be a great year, and I hope that you will pray with us as we serve the Lord in itinerant ministry.
