It's been too long!

We are so sorry that it has been so long since we have updated you on things going on with us, and our wonderful students at SFA! Vince and I realized it had been awhile. The conversation went something like this...

"Vince, have you updated our blog lately honey?". "No, haven't you been writing it?" "Umm... (looks at the website) OH NO!!! It has been 2 months! 2 months!!! Oh dear. I hope they know we still love them!" ....

Needless to say I am very embarrassed. And deeply sorry.

So...

Things have been busy for us, and that has been a great blessing! We are still living in Allen, TX- and it has been wonderful to continue to meet with our current, and new, ministry partners. We have been floored by the Lord's goodness as we are continuing to build our financial team. It is no secret that these are not the most stable financial times, but we have seen God provide in amazing ways. In fact, despite the economic struggles, the Lord continues to grow our team of ministry partners! We are thrilled to announce that during December, we passed the halfway mark, and we are currently at 57% of our needed funds in order to return to campus.

It has been a good season for Vince and I. We have been working hard on support, but we did get a chance to break for a few days and enjoy Christmas with out various families. It was a blessing, and very refreshing to get to have time with all the relatives in from out of town, and local too!

Just a few weeks ago we got the amazing blessing of getting to see some of our awesome SFA Crusaders at our annual Winter Conference. I want to tell you all about that... and I know you want to hear all the amazing details, but I will save that for the upcoming newsletter and future posts. Check back because it will be great!!

Please keep Vince and I in your prayers as we are still in need of support for our ministry. Also, please be praying for our students back at SFA. School starts on Monday, January 19, 2009. Much like you and me, students are in the mindset of New Years Resolutions, and they have a chance to have a great start to a new semester. Please pray that they resolve to take next steps with the Lord, and that they will remain committed to our KING!

Thank you again. There are not words to express our gratitude. But... there will be lots of words to describe all that is going on with us, and students back at SFA right here on the blog to come!

Blessings,
Autumn and Vince.
