Back Again

I can't believe we have lived in Georgia for almost 6 months. Well, Kev has and I'm rounding the 5 month mark. Now that our life has slowed down a tiny bit, I decided to blog again and update our friends on our new here. Although it all seems like a whirlwind, I'll try my best to update. Below are a few pictures that could maybe sum up the last few months.

While I was wrapping up all the details with our move, saying good bye to friends, and wrapping things up at the Y, Kev was getting acclamated to our new life in Georgia. After visiting grandparents and family in New York and moving everything into storage, I joined Kev down in Winston in early May. My first few weeks were filled with getting to know our youth and heading to Hilton Head to check out where our summer mission trip would be.

June began with a week back in North Carolina for Centrifuge at Ridgecrest Conference Center. While I was at Centrifuge an old friend from NAMB/World Changers called and offered me a two month contract job working from home. It was data entry but was perfect as I could still continue with my upcoming mission trip and beach trip, etc. Kev came home from Fuge, had Vacation Bible School the next week and then left for Southern Seminary where he had his classes for his DMin. I stayed back in GA and spent most of my time getting everything done for my WC project and prepared for my mission trip to Jamaica.

The second week in July we had a team of 35ish from our church head to Jamaica for a mission trip. It was such an awesome trip and it gave me time to get to know some church members and make new friends. After Jamaica, I ventured to Pawley's Island and enjoyed the beach for a few days with Molly and then back to Raleigh (with Molly) to see mom, dad and my grandmother. I was blessed yet again that while I was at the beach I was offered a job with Silver Creek Communities. No more job worries now - God just worked all that out!

Since school has started back for the youth, Kev and I have a small group bible study that meets on Tuesday nights and has been such a blessing to both of us. We love studying the Bible with our kids and are so encouraged by the ones who want to grow deeper in their faith. We were able to take a beach trip to Florida over Labor Day with some of our new friends from church. You can see some pics from there below.

We have loved the opportunity God has given us in Georgia and are enjoying every minute at our new church. We praise him for his many blessings and pray we will always be mindful of how he has allowed us to be a part of his kingdom.
