WHAT IS UP WITH US??????

Well, I'm being told by someone (KIM BYRD) to I need to let ya'll know what is going on with us.

Our Church been talking to Chris about being called as the Youth Minister. This is such a blessing when you are called because first it comes from God and a way that you can serve Him. We do believe this is not a calling for just Chris it has to be a total commitment for me also. I just want to be in His' Will. This is a small church that is wanting to grow and see God work. Please be praying for us and our church, Cornerstone Fellowship Baptist.

I have been dealing with my foot for way to long. I was told back in January that I had plantar fascists it is not contagious LOL. It would not heal and I went back to the doctor and he found through a MRI that it was broken underneath my toes. Yes, a crazy break. Well, not for me, RIGHT! It took a while for it to heal. Then I went to camp and re broke it. After that I felt like it was not right that my foot was taking so long to heal this year. So I went to a new doctor and got a second opinion and he found I had bone spurs, all the way down the right side of my foot. So because of this I have had to have shots in my heel, arch and below my big toe 3 times in the last 2 weeks. It is feeling alot better and it is healing. Praise God!

Kristin is really making alot of changes in her life the past few months. After a hard first part of the year this past spring she found a church that had a strong college and career class that she could get involved in. She has found a great church that is doing a Bible Study with a group then is also involved in a ministry for under privileged teens. Besides all that she has church on Sunday,Wednesday and goes to school 40 hours a week and works 15 to 30 hours a week. To say the least she is very busy and we don't see her much but God is truly working in her life. Please continue to pray for her she is in a very worldly school with everything around her and she is trying to be a witness. She thought high school was bad on attitude and language but she said it was alot worst there.

Alissa is back in school and she is enjoying her classes. She is a junior this year and is taking several college classes. She is trying real hard to get her GPA up high that is so she can hopefully get some scholarships. (Greg and Kim if you don't mind telling us what ya'll were about to do for Elisabeth for college money with being in the ministry. That would be a big help.Thank You) Alissa has been talking to someone at OBU about Digital Graphics Degree, that is what she wanting to do. We also received a letter last week, asking Alissa to study abroad this summer, she really wants to and we are checking into it Please be in prayer for us about that if you could.

I guess that is what is going on with our lives in the past month. Sorry that I have not been keeping up but I forget with FB now.

Good to see that everyone is good and staying busy. Staying busy for the Lord is great! I keep telling Kim that we need to get back down there soon (move back) but now I have grown to love our church up here so much, it would be hard to leave it...Just like it was with FTBC.

Love you guys - talk to you soon!
