We are healthy! Praise the Lord After a small hospital visit for Me and Baby Ella our family is healthy... We all got the stomach flu right after Easter, and I couldn't keep anything down which was a ticket to Labor and Delivery when I started contracting(scary) because of dehydration... After the 5th time trying to start my IV they finally got it and labeled me severely dehydrated and admitted me into the hospital.. after 6 bags of fluid my contractions stopped and I was able to hold stuff down! I feel great today (two days later). BJ and Brodin have recovered well too..
Things have been going good, we feel God has us pressing forward toward Lima, Peru... we talked to our Pastor and shared our vision with him a month or so ago, he pointed us in the right direction with how to proceed, and is behind us supporting us. We really love our new church, it feels as if we have truly found a place of love, prayer, and amazing people.. They really share our vision for missions as well. We have contacted the district missions director and let them know our vision and are waiting to hear how they would like us to proceed. We have also contacted John Bonner from CCBC Lima Peru, where I went to school, as we feel like God is leading us toward this ministry, they are supporting us and praying for us as well as we continue to seek God and His direction. We never want to be ahead of God, but walking right behind Him and following His will for our lives. If it were up to us we would have left yesterday lol.. our excitement for what God will do in and through us is overwhelming! :) We are in a season of preparation so we ask that you would continue to pray for us as we seek God. More to come.. :)
