Things are heating up !

     For the last two weeks we have been up in Washington State picking up the rest of my tools, checking in on Donna’s mom (who, praise God, is doing better since she had a pacemaker put in), filing our taxes and spending some wonderful time with Jason, Jen and Chris, and the grandkids Marcus and Avery. We even got to see Marcus get his very first hit in his very first T-ball game. We also were able to share a little with our home church, Faith Community Fellowship and let them know how much we appreciate them for their encouragement, prayers, and support, also thanking them for all the work they did on their recent trip down. The curtains are wonderful!

    But now we are back in little ol’ San Felipe and things are heating up both weather wise and Orphanage wise. Our friends and partners here, Rob and Debbie Jensen, returned from a quick trip home as well and it seems the Lord has put a real sense of urgency on all of our hearts to kick into high gear and get Sonshine Hacienda ready for some children. We all feel like it is time to take a deep breath, say a huge prayer, and start making some critical decisions that will impact our opening. Things like bunk beds and mattresses, and clothes storage and kitchen utensils and transformers and playground equipment and several other things that we have maybe dragged our feet on in the past but now need to address and resolve and we’re going forth with a new excitement and sense of spiritual energy.  Read more here…
