Christina and I have been here for three weeks now, and the
Lord has been pouring on blessing after blessing since we arrived.  After a whirlwind tour of houses and
townhomes in the first few days, we found an amazing house that was everything we
were looking for – great space, perfect location (which includes an incredible
view of Pike's Peak from our backyard!), not to mention an awesome
landlord.  He was more than willing
to work with us on the price, and even held the house for us when someone else
came in with a better offer!  Such
a blessing!

Needless to say, we were more than happy to sign a year
lease, which may not seem like a long time, but considering the longest we've
ever been in one consecutive house was our first place in Philly, which was
only nine months.  This lack of
stability has been really tough for both of us to deal with for this long, so
knowing that we'll be in one place – one home – is such a huge comfort. 

Finally, the community that we've come into has been yet
another amazing blessing from the Lord that we're treasuring.  There are a number of other couples
that are here as well that we're already beginning to form some strong bonds
with.  There's a desire amongst all
of us to truly see the Kingdom come and it's been really exciting to start down
this road already with them. 

We still feel like the Lord is calling us to rest until the
end of March, which means that we're still depending on support through that
time.  We're really close to
reaching that mark, but still need about $2000 to be fully supported for the
next six weeks.  We've been
astounded that, even in these tough economic times, God has continued to prove
Himself faithful in this area, and we're confident He will not stop now.  If you'd like to support us, either
financially or in prayer (or both!), click the link on the left side of the

It has been clear from the beginning that the Lord has led
us here and we are so thrilled that He has!  We are sure that when our time here is up, we will have
written about testimony upon testimony of God's goodness and faithfulness, so
stay tuned!
