Wow...We've had an awesome week! Our church has a celebration called "Festival of the Continents." It's a 10 day long event where missionaries from all over come and speak...We have a cool dinner...and the week ends with our Disciple Now for the youth. This year's event was called Passion Now. Basically, the kids learn how to be passionate about sharing the gospel and how to do it!

All I can say is WOW! We hosted 10 high school boys all weekend. I loved it! They were crazy. I realized that I really am a boy's mom! I thought I was so girly but I love the attention that boys give their "mom"! These boys had a blast and Brady P was right up in the middle of it all. They helped my with Kaden and even cleaned up after theirselves. I love them!

The best part of the weekend was Saturday night. The college guys came over and prayed over our guys. It was awesome to see guys on their faces praying for their friends. I was overwhelmed! I just wanted to cry all night. Then our guys turned around and prayed for Tony and me! Wow! (Bro. John praying over Trey. He was one of our boys)

(I love it when the youth worship)

God really spoke to my heart this weekend. As you all know I'm so not a merciful person...but I for some reason now have a heart for the lost! Not just lost souls but also the children in other countries who are parentless. You know I've been saying that I want to adopt from China...well I know this is something God wants for us too! I will continue to pray for guidence with this! It will be a while before we are ready! But I know it will happen!
