It's official: Things change. I'm looking for a new job, we're about to have another kid, & we are moving into SC. Starbucks is helping me meet a bunch of new people, but it isn't paying the $1500 rent. Abigail ----- McMasters is kicking like a machine, maybe she's a soccer player? She's due at the end of Sept. & everything is going great so far. We decided it's time to leave the ranch & head into town. We keep praying for people, go into SC & see them, & then come home realizing there are more horses up here than people. So, we're all moving. Please pray for us, since any one of these "new" adventures creates exciting joy in a person's life; add them together & the recipe brings you: Exciting joy.

Everyone but Linda & I went to Mazatlan Mexico. They had a great time & feel even more inspired to reach SC. They built a "house" in 3 days. Check out the video

We are continuing to meet & invite people into our community. It is a slow going process. It seems as if there is always someone new at our events (ie. celebration, Lifegroups, BBQ, etc.), but having that translate into them "sticking" is another matter. We do have some new faces however who are hanging around, which is great. 97%of SC doesn't go to any church, so the harvest is ripe. However, the harvest requires some patient persistence & the use of correct tools.

Blessings,
