Life has been full speed this year so far. We are deep in community groups, students, bible studies, and preparing for a new baby. It has all been so good though.
We had our version of VBS a couple weeks ago called Adventure Camp. A group from Northway Church in Macon, GA came to help us out and it was such a fun week! We saw several new kids and families participate in Adventure Camp, and we even have had a few students join our student ministry from Adventure Camp. We could not have done it without the help from our friends at Northway, and we are so thankful God chose to provide for us through them!
Northwest Community Church has been going through a series this summer called Primed and our community groups are going through the Gospel Primer. The two go hand in hand, and it has been really neat to see individuals and groups really dig in and learn what the Gospel is and what kind of implications it has for our lives as individuals and as a church. I'm so excited to see how this summer will kickstart some really neat relationships and service throughout our church and community.
As the summer begins to wrap up, I am entering my 26th week of pregnancy! We have a sweet baby girl on the way, and we are beyond excited to meet her in a few months. She will, of course, create need for a few changes and adjustments. God has provided for us in the past almost year and a half, and we are trusting him to continue to provide during this new season as well. We don't really know how he is going to do it, but we are believing that he will. As of now, I am planning to continue working 3 days a week and Jared will stay home with her 2 of those days. We will have to find someone to keep her one day a week. We hope that I will eventually be able to stay home with her, but right now that's not in the cards and it is okay. We are so thankful that I have a very flexible job and a boss who loves the Lord and truly understands and believes in family coming first. He is fully supportive of us and what we're doing here in NWA. We know we are where God wants us, and we know his plans are much higher than ours.
Thank you for keeping up with our little adventure over here in the Northwest corner of Arkansas! We continue to be so blown away by God's provision and his providence here. We so appreciate your prayers and support as we walk into this new season of life!
