And we're off.......

to Indy, that is! It is now completely official that at the end of the summer we will be moving to Indianapolis, IN. This comes after much prayer and consideration for the opportunities there. It's hard to think about leaving the place we've been for the past 4 years, but we are confident that God has orchestrated these events in our life. Last night we told the youth group here that we were leaving and that was so hard. Those kids have become so close to us over the past years. We see such an amazing spiritual maturity in them and feel like we are the most blessed people to know them! They challenged us and we challenged them last night to make this the best summer yet. So, we are really looking forward to everything that is to come.

Our house will be going on the market in the next few days which is pretty scary! We are just praying that it sells quickly. So, if anyone is looking for a house in Athens, AL..........come on! To top all of this off, Chris is leaving for his mission trip to Ghana next Wed and will be gone 2 1/2 weeks. As soon as he gets back, we'll head to Lipscomb for a week for a camp called Impact with the teenagers. While Chris is in Ghana, I will be going to Indy for the birth of my new nephew (Sawyer) and will look for houses while I'm there.

We covet everyones prayers during this exciting and scary time in our life. Please pray that our transition goes smoothly and that God will prepare us for the work He has for us to do in Indiana. We will be going to the SouthEastern Church of Christ where Chris will be the youth minister.
