What we've been doing after Christmas...

Grandma & Grandpa Boone fixed up a go-kart for Mylanie for Christmas. She's been asking Grandpa to fix her one for a while and Grandpa finally gave in:) We spent the rest of the week taking turns riding with her. Everyone even got to drive once or twice! Mommy enjoyed it very much and Daddy too! After she had driven a while she wanted to know when she could drive the car! She was very disapointed to find out she still had to wait until she was 16 to drive a car.

NEWS ON STILLWATER LODGE

Please be praying that God will lead in the possible purchase of the stillwater lodge for our ministry. We received a phone call on Christmas day letting us know that the purchase price had been reduced by $200,000. Pray that if this is the property for us to minister with that God will touch hearts of folks to help us with this need. If you do know of corporate donors who may wish to get in a charitable contribution please email us and let us know. I it is eciting to see how God's plan will unfold during these most eventful days. God bless and Happy New Year.

Merry Christmas:)

Open Door Baptist Church

Thurday night we had a wonderful time ministering to Open Door Baptist Church in Plant City, FL. This is a newly started ministry. We had the opportinity to play for their music service. It was wonderful to be playing in church again!! Pastor Bond did a wonderful job with his monologue of Benjamin (one of the shepherds that visited Mary & Joseph). He is going to do another one at Jr. Camp this year! Right, Pastor Bond?

Wheel of Fortune!!!

We had the wonderful opportunity Monday night to attend a live taping of Wheel of Fortune! A very ncie lady named Debbie gave us some free tickets to the taping. We had a wonderful time and we got to see three shows taped. There is a lot of stuff that goes on that you don't see on TV! And a LOT of audience coaching:) Mylanie enjoyed watching Vanna touch the screens to show the letter. "It's amazing!" she said. We also saw the human side of Vanna. After the show, Vanna left in tennis shoes!!! If you watch Wheel on April 7th or 8th, you may see us:)

Committ Thy ways....

Pastor Bond of First Baptist Church of Port Richey shared with us last evening in the service the verse that states committ thy ways to the Lord and then thy thoughts shall be established. That is oppossite how we prefer to do things. We want to plan and the committ, God says Committ and then plan. I am thankful in our journey to Stillwater that God always does his plan. We were fairly dissapointed that the tenants who were to occupy our Florida home dec 1st, did not show at the last minute. However, we found out from our property manager that the tenants ducked out their rent with current landlord and fled the state to another state. That would have been us at some point so God knows best. Pray for our car and house situation. We will be in Nc again no later thatn Jan 11th as we have a meeting in Eden Nc. Pray that all will work out that we might go ahead and base there this time. God bless you all and thanks for the many who have let us know you were praying for us. Feel free to give us a call or email, we like hearing from you.
