Adoption:
We mailed off part two if the application yesterday. Last week on the 19th we had our final meeting with our social worker. He said that he hopes to have the adoption study completed for us to review by the end of the month. Completing this adoption study is a HUGE step in the process!
Angola:
We met with our Angola team on the 14th and 15th to discuss what we learned from our recent "Quest" weekend with Missions Resource Network (MRN) as well as our plans for the upcoming survey trip in June. Check out the news page on the Angola team website for more details!

Silver City Church:
This is late news but I've been meaning to post it on the blog... Last month the High school and Junior high school girl's classes completed a True Love Waits/Purity study. On the evening of Sunday February 17th each of the girls made a commitment before God, peers, mothers, mentors, and bible class teachers to live a life of purity. I am very proud of my girls! Here is a picture of the girls and their teachers...
Last Sunday (Easter Sunday) was a one man show. Robert lead singing, communion, and preached! Robert talked about how Resurrection means new life for us today, not just in heaven. He spoke from Ezekiel 37. Robert ended with "Days of Elijah," but the rest of the church wasn't finished singing yet!...they started making song requests and Robert would lead them. It was random, unorganized, and beautiful! It showed how God is at work in the lives of the people at Silver City. They are moved by songs that give glory to God. We love our Silver City Church so much!
The majority of the church was on their way to Juarez, Mexico on Easter Sunday to build a couple of houses for families in need there. Silver City takes a group of teens each year. This year they had a record breaking group of 36 people, so they built two houses instead of one! They come home today and it will be nice to have them at church on Sunday!
