It's little but yes, it's a bun in the oven

Prayer Letter May 2009

Hello friends,
Some of you may have seen Annie’s Face Book profile change to “bun in the oven” and realized that it is indeed true. Yes we ARE having a baby!!! We are so grateful to the Lord for this incredible gift and we thank Him everyday for this opportunity to love and nurture a young life.... to be honest we haven’t a clue as to what is about to happen yet we are incredibly giddy about the news.

We travelled to Swaziland with Pastor Vincent and Gloria as well as our team members and visitors from overseas. We had Jason and Cara Mitchell join us from Oklahoma as prospective staff. Jason applied for the position of Director of Operations in Africa which is the fancy name for the “make it happen man.” We hit it off with them and are confident that they will be an integral part of the AR family from here on out. Jason and Cara are looking to move here indefinitely in September of this year to take over our on-the-ground work in Africa, as AR is growing and Annie & I need to be running things stateside. We look forward to sharing more of them with you in time.

Prayer Requests

1.) Thank God for our little tadpole baby and pray that he/she grows up strong and healthy. Pray too that God prepare Annie and I for the transition from young hip couple to boring old parents.

2)

Again we thank God for Jason and Cara and pray that their next steps be very specifically guided by the Lord as we hand this side of the work over to them. Pray for them as they rally a team around themselves to be obedient to God's call on their lives.

3) We have 3 teams coming soon from the U.S. to visit and work with us. Pray for our planning and how we can most effectively envision them with God's long-term vision for their lives as well as how they can serve in the community here.

As always we are thrilled to be partnering with you in doing God's work here in Southern Africa.
