A New Home

This morning we said good-bye to our church family.  The Stirring and it's people have been my family for more than 10 years.  I have never known friendship and acceptance so consistently in my life.   The Stirring has inspired me, challenged me, kept me going through some of life's greatest challenges, and walked along side me through many seasons of joy and pain.  God has used the leadership of The Stirring to draw me closer to Him and into a much deeper walk than I could have ever imagined.  So, despite the joy of stepping forward in the journey that God called us to and the Stirring has encouraged, there was a great sadness in my heart to say good-bye to the comfort of "Home."

 

So, yes, we are saying good-bye to Redding. I'm sure we will come and visit, for it will always be our home. But we are moving forward in this journey towards Indonesia.  We are having a stop over in the Sacramento area so we can pay some debts and gain some health.  Matthew has been offered a full-time tech job at UC Davis and he starts tomorrow!  I will be staying with his parents until we find a more permanent residence in the Sacramento area.  Once we are settled, I will be continuing the jewelry business in Redding and Sacramento so I can still come up and visit my family on occasion, so if you want to book a home show and get some free jewelry for you or the women in your life and support missions work, just send me a note or give me a call!

We are having a going away party for our Redding friends and family on April 12th at Round Table Pizza.  This is to say our last good byes but also to help us get some things for our new home!  Two years ago we sold most of our possessions to prepare for our journey to Indonesia.  Now that we know we will need to be in the States a bit longer, we have to reaquire some essentials for our new home.  My dear friend is a Pampered Chef Consultant and she is throwing me a party to help us aquire some of these items.  Some of you have requested that I create a wishlist so you can purchase gifts for us.  Following is that list.  You can purchase these items on my friend's website or just let me know that you want to order something as a gift for us at the party on the 12th!  If you want to just order something for yourself, please do! Every purchase at this party helps us get some free Pampered Chef products for our new kitchen.

Thank you so much for your support.  With God's grace and your friendship and support, we are moving forward!
