A great opportunity for Wyatt

Hey you guys. Hope you are doing well. We have jumped right into a new semester and have an almost full dorm- 11 kids (5 girls and 6 boys). A boy and a girl moved out and one girl moved in. Kids came back on Monday and classes started on Tuesday. We have kids involved in basketball practices, a soccer tournament, after school choir and band. We are excited about the growth we will see this semester and all the ways God will bring us together as a "family."
One thing you could pray about is our internet. We haven't had "real" internet in the dorm or at the school for weeks. Thankfully I have 3G on my phone and that is what we have all been using to get online. However, I only have a limited amount of data available every month so once this run out we won't have anything until next month. I feel bad for the kids who are trying to talk to Mom and Dad, and those who need to research something for school. I am not sure why there has been no internet. It is 'being fixed" or so they say. But it is frustrating.
Also we have been having fits with our computer. Garth is very knowledgeable and has been trying to fix it, but I am not sure if it is fixable.
We are also currently having low to no water. Again it is one of those things "being fixed" and we need to just be patient.
On a bright note, we had such a blessed time as a family for the Holidays. I am so thankful for every moment. Continue praying for Wyatt that he will know what God's will is for his future.  One exciting thing coming up that you could also pray for: on the 22nd Wyatt has a chance to try-out for a Junior professional soccer team!!!! This is HUGE! For those of you that don't know, Wyatt is extremely gifted in the art of soccer. He has been praying that God would use this talent for His glory. This might be his chance.
Well, I need to go. I will try to attach some pictures. Hopefully it will work.
Love you all. Happy New Year. Thanks for your prayers and your support.
Love 
Rachel
