Justin goes to Czech

Justin is leaving for the Czech Republic today to go to the Josiah Venture Leadership Council meetings. I just got back from dropping him off at the airport. These meetings are for the JV country leaders from all over Eastern Europe, so Justin will be representing our ministry in Albania. This will be a great opportunity for him to get to know the other country leaders better, become familiar with other youth ministries, and generally be encouraged and challenged. Please pray for safe travel for him and for him to be encouraged and challenged by the other leaders.

Unfortunately, this means that I have to do without him for a week :( Samuel is such a good boy, I definitely can't complain, but it is getting harder and harder to tote him around while being 7 months pregnant! My least favorite task is going grocery shopping and having to carry all those bags up to our apartment. But every day I am just so thankful that our little baby girl is growing and moving, and her overall development is good. Next week I go in for a fetal non-stress test, which is just where they monitor the baby's heartbeat during periods of the baby's activity and inactivity. We are quite certain that we will not have any more information until she is born. So we live each day just trusting that God is sovereign and good and holds her in his hand.

thank you for your prayers!!
