I told ya'll about us voting last Sunday to go on a Mission Trip but the real work starts now. Chris has told the youth that we can't just go on a Mission Trip without starting here close to home. This has started a mission project monthly for the youth to be active in from doing someone yard to feeding the homeless and whatever else we can do to help. So this past Thursday evening we took a small group to a elderly lady's home that is in our church to work in her yard. We were very proud of them because of their attitude and willingness to help with no pat on the back. It was a messy job but they did it, see it has been raining here alot and we would step on the ground our feet just sank but they went on and had fun. Last night they truly showed a servants heart.

Today we had a vote at church with youth group and parents to decide if we were going to go on a ski or mission trip. This is a very young youth group most of them have not done either one. So now it went on cost and MISSION TRIP won. We had a few kind of upset about not going skiing but I think it will work out for the best. So here we come BIG CREEK MISSIONS, Kentucky.

One of my friends (Vicky) was saying that our blogs have been neglected because of FB and Yes,Vicky you are right I have been neglecting my blog page and I'm sorry about that. So to let ya'll know some maybe new stuff and some repeated from FB.

Chris and I have been real busy with the youth and trying to get it to grow and to really minister to each one of the youth and their families. Our youth they just need alot of prayer and love from God and us. This past month we have had two youth saved PRAISE GOD! We also had a good family join our church and it has been a true blessing.

You know that Kristin goes to another church and one sunday she helped her daddy and I out with youth a Sunday afternoon. That Sunday she saw Dusty(one of the youth from our last church) and Chris said it was a hallmark monent as they ran to each other and hugged. They are so cute!

Alissa has applied for a short term mission trip this summer to Italy she is really wanting to do this or at least one like it. Please be praying for her. We will let ya'll know the outcome and dates of the trip.

I will try to get better with the blogging again.

Earlier this month we had our family birthday. My side of the family for the past year has been getting together every three months or so for birthdays. We started this when James(my nephew) moved back to Texas, it is way we can stay a little bit in each others life with our crazy schedules.

Well tonight was Royse City Homecoming, Alissa and her friends went to Homecoming and then went to the dance afterwards.She is starting to grow up and If you know anything about Alissa, she does not like to dress up and especially a dress and heels. She has always fought the idea of growing up she just wants to stay a little kid. Little Girl Growing up!!
