New Week!

So, once again we have had a busy week. Shaun has gone through the in-processing portion of his training at the base and he starts work on Tuesday.

On Saturday we drove to Louisiana and picked up our neighbors from Texas. Maddie and Alec are staying with us until Monday. They fit right in at church on Sunday and everyone here loves them! We went to the beach today and tomorrow we tackle a buffet! Here are Maddie and Alec outside of the Beaurivage Casino. We went there to check out the arcade and the fountain!

My friend Danielle was also here. So, we got to talk and talk and talk... we are so good at that! She gave me the most awesome birthday gift! She painted a picture for me! I also got to meet her grandmother and several other family members today. It was so fun! Danielle also agreed to take our photos and work them up... so beloved readers we will have a good picture of us on the church website soon... yeah!! Check out the amazing painting! I now have 2 original paintings!

Here is one of the pictures from the digital camera. We can't wait to see the finished photos!
Church went really well this week too. I had 16 kids and several of the "regulars" were out on vacation. We are gearing up for our grand opening on August 3rd when we will move to Sunday morning services at 11:00. Shaun and I will also be ordained on July 27th during the service. I hope to have everything purchased and set up for the kids by July 13th. This week I am going to go and purchase some big things.. so we are getting closer.

I am still unemployed, but hopeful! I have applied at the school and the Community College, so we shall see! Shaun woke up this morning with a huge tooth and sinus infection. He is going to a dentist here tomorrow. So, please pray for him for health and employment for me.

Also, please pray for Mosaic Church as we prepare for our grand opening and for the people that are coming each week.

Blessings!
