In the 37+ years that Sue and I have been married, we've moved many times. Sometimes our moves were from one house to another in the same town. Other times we were "given the opportunity" by Uncle Sam to move across country or to the other side of the world. In our ministry experience we've been blessed to be part of the work in 5 different states. Each time we move we are reminded of the fact that, no matter where we go, no matter how difficult the transition, no matter what our initial response is, our great God is there, ready to make great things happen through our somewhat weak efforts.
Now that we are facing another move we are being challenged again. This time it will be a different opportunity with new faces and names who, like so many others simply want to serve the living God.

Thank you Lord for providing for all of our needs and so many of our desires as we make our home in a different place. Please bless those we are leaving behind as they press forward with their lives and become a blessing to the next person who comes to work with them. Please give us the ability to make new friends and provide friendship to the new people we will encounter in our new home. Amen.
