Memphis, TN

We are with friends in Memphis. It has been hot but the thing that amazes me is the lack of complaint from the kids. They are so happy to be with so many of their friends. There is always someone to play with and because of that they are sleeping great. They come in covered in dirt but their smiles couldn't be bigger.

 















Larry and I have had great times of fellowship. The families here are on the edge if something new and it has started with a new house. Last night everyone gathered for dinner and a time of worship and prayer. We sang songs that they knew but also sang a new song to the Lord by just lifting our voices in praise.

There is plenty of room and some work that needs to be done. And wouldn't you know it has to do with electrical stuff. Larry went right to work and by the end of the day he had installed two outlets and helped fix the garbage disposal that was giving any one a charge that would flip the switch :)
We were also able to help in getting rid of "little friends" that come out at night. Two nights in a row my eagle eye saw the blur behind the piano then the men would corner it and dispose of it. We have had lots of laughs over that one.







We will be here a little longer then off to the next destination. God has already provided a contact and they have offered to house us for three nights. We didn't even know who they were last week but now through our friends in Atlanta we have been connected. We are blessed again by God's provision.




Prayer requests- Sean is having the hardest time out of all the kids. He has been asking for his pacifier a lot. But a huge praise for him is that he is fully Potty trained and goes in all by himself.
