Another offer!

Please pray for us as we continue to try and sell our home. We have another offer now and are praying this is the right family. We have actually met them and they are very excited to come live here. We had another offer a couple of weeks ago, and were even in contract with a closing date set, and at the last minute the family broke contract. We know everything is in Gods timing. We met a very special person while in contact that we were going to rent from until we leave for Uganda. And we knew God put her in our path for a reason. So please continue to pray for us as we wait patiently on our Lord's perfect will!
God Bless,
Josh and Angela

Homeland Ministry Assignment!

Well, we have officially started our homeland ministry assignment (HMA). We are in the process of developing a team of friends and supporters who will pray for us and help out financially. We are currently making appointments at churches and with friends to share our testimonies and needs for the field of Uganda. Please keep us in your prayers as we begin this journey that God will place the people in our paths that need to be! We are now officially on the web too! You can check us out at wgm.org! Thank you for your prayers and have a blessed day!

Thank You!


Thank you everyone for your prayers! Our little man is back up and running! Zachary is feeling so much better today, he is chug-a-luggin' all kinds of fluids, and keeping them down. He even made a special request for sponge bob macaroni! Thank you again for all your prayers!

Uganda Video

To the right we've posted a video of where we will be in Uganda. The man in the video is Jonathon Mayo, who is our field director and mentor. The others in the video are some missionaries we will be ministering with in Kampala. It's a great video, and a vision for Uganda we are proud to be a part of!

Zachary!


Please pray for our "little Man", he is very under the weather. Zach has been sick for three days now and running a very high fever. He is spending his days on the couch and unable to eat or drink very much. The pediatrician said he has croup, which he has had before, but never this bad! His Papaw May made him a little prayer cloth that he is wearing pinned to his shirt. Please pray he will wake up in the morning, fever gone, cough gone and ready to take on the day!

For Sale!


Well, we've prayed about it and we are selling our home! We are hoping to find a home to rent a little smaller so we can save some money to pay things off before we leave for Uganda. Our house will be on the "market" for a little over 90 days. We ask that you will be with us in prayer that we will do what God will have us do. If it is His will for us to sell our home, God will open the doors to the perfect rental home for our family in our price range to help us meet our financial needs before we head to Africa. We are very excited and feel this is our first step in fulfilling God's will in our lives! As you know the market for buying/selling homes right now is very poor. In our small neighborhood alone, there are 2 foreclosures, 2 lease to own options, and one rental. But as His word says: But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible. Matthew 19:26 His word also says: And everyone that has forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands for my name's sake shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life. Matthew 20:29. Thank you for your prayers!

WGM Prayer Requests

We get a few special prayer requests sometimes from World Gospel Mission and we got one a couple days ago asking us to pray for this family of missionaries that are serving in Bolivia. This is the email we received from them today. Please continue to pray for this family. They have an amazing faith in our Lord.

"Our beautiful blond Baby Marian Barbara is nestled in the arms of Jesus this morning. She went to be with Him while Mommy was still in labor last night. Both sets of grandparents, the pastors, and Marian’s family got to hold her. She looked so pretty in the little dress and bonnet her Mommy had made for her. She was 3 lbs. 4 oz. and 14 inches long. Ron said they’ve seen the hand of the Lord through the entire process!

Let’s thank the Lord for answering our prayers. Yesterday, when the doctor began the procedure to manipulate the baby out of the breech position, he stopped, called for a sonogram, and found Baby Marian already in perfect position. A direct answer to our prayers! He protected Ruth through labor which was induced yesterday at 3 PM and ended at 9:38 PM. He brought honor to His name through Thad and Ruth’s faithfulness and dedication to live out what they believe. He continues to bring honor to Himself as we rejoice at the testimony of the sense of His presence throughout these past months. He is God and His ways our perfect even though we do not always understand them."


Continue to pray for all the family as they continue to walk through these difficult days.
