Auction

Saturday’s Auction went really well.  The weather was terrific and we got rid of everything.  Wyatt and Garth helped a man with a flat tire.  The other kids had made chocolate chip cookies.  I told them if they made them, they could sell them and then split the money.  I am always looking for ways that they can learn how to wisely manage money- some for God, some for savings, and fun money.  (There is a great site called Three Jars if you are looking for ideas.)

Sunday dinner was at my sister’s-yummy.  Today we took a trip to Moody to meet with some of the MK’s (Missionary kids) there.  The traffic was fantastic since it was President’s Day.  Thank you Lord!  We had a chance to talk to a girl from Austria who said she spent her first two years at Moody writing in her journal “What is wrong with me?” every night, and feeling so out of place until she started attending the MuKappa meetings for MK’s and realized that what she was feeling was normal.  It was encouraging to hear several stories like that.  When we tell them we understand, we sure mean it.  That is why this ministry is a perfect fit for us.

We are so thankful for where God has us right now.  Thanks for helping.

Love you
