Hello everyone!
So,
it has been a while since I wrote and I figured that it is time for an update.
First,
we finally got family pictures done. We had some good friends come over and
they took family photos as well as Amos’ 2 year pictures. It was so kind of
them to do that and as you can tell, they turned out really well!
It is hard to believe that 2018 is almost
over! It feels like I was just getting into the routine of everything. But I am
excited to see what 2019 holds.
I
am officially on Christmas Break until Jan. 8th. Our last day was
the 13th so it has been almost a week already. I cannot believe it!
I had so much I wanted to do and I have done basically nothing! But rest is a
good thing so I am trying to get as much as I can before everything resumes.
Grad
school is going well. I only have 4 classes left! That means I will complete
everything in August and I will finally have my degree. It will be so nice to
be done but also strange and sad, I like school but I am also ready to have
some time back.
Jonathan
is Ubering more hours now since I am at home and no longer have to be dropped
off at a specific time. He will begin teaching in an afterschool program in January
as well. It is only 2 days a week but it will be a huge help financially to us.
Ministry
is going well. There have been a couple of deaths in the last few months, but
sadly, that is a part of life and ministry. I cannot share more details but we
are excited to see some growth from the seeds we have been planting
(metaphorically). Please continue to pray for us and those we serve.
I
am working more on my crochet, especially over break. I am hoping to be able to
start selling a few things to help make money to buy more yarn! As all of you
crafters and needle workers know, you can never have too many supplies or too
much yarn! If I am successful, I hope to get Jonathan to build me a nice little
storage cabinet (with a key) so I can keep Amos away from my supplies. We shall
see how successful I am. Regardless though, there are 2 more churches in
addition to ours that will be having crochet classes. I will resume in late January
or early February. I am currently filming some tutorials that Jonathan will do
the Spanish translation for. I will then upload these to YouTube so the ladies
can have access to the instruction during the week. Pray for that to go well
please! It is hard to film with a toddler!
Jonathan’s
gardening project is going well and he will begin making one at the church next
year as well.
I
guess that is it for now. Until next time, may Adonai bless you and your homes.
