This week has been a blessing so far here in Missouri. We have ran into many friends, pastors, and missionaries. Wow what a time of freshness. We leave here and head to Texas for some metting and then back up to Missouri. God has been. We saw so many new missionaries approved today and it just thrilled our hearts. Please continue to pray for us as we try to schedule church to present our ministry and that God will provide us with the right churches. Next week is David's 31 birthday. Thank you for all your prayers for us as we travel around. If there is anything we can pray with you about please email us or post it to us.

Update
Our last post Worries are for God. We have seen the Lord blessing in this situation. Our finances where off and we had paid off our taxes and our car repair bill, thinking we had enough money. The money was in the account but it made it very tight for us while traveling considering gas was around $3.50 to $3.60 a gallon. Thank you for your prayers. We saw people in churches we were visiting since we were in the area and also in churches we presented in just hand us cash for gas. Which amazed us considering noone but God knew that is exactly what it was needed for. We have been traveling around and we are now in MO and head to KS this weekend and then on to TX. We are somewhere in the ballpark of 62% of our support right now. That might change some due to the mission office redoing their family allowance. Around 8 months we have increased from 35% to around 62%. Praise God!!!!!

Worries are for God and Praises
God has been teaching us yesterday and today to rely more on Him and not worry about whatever it maybe. Have you had a time of worrying about something? What did you do? We have been praying, reading our Bible and letting God take control of it. We know that we will see His hand in this. Maybe later will be able to post more about this and how God answered.
Crystal got a phone call from her mother saying that Jeremy (her husband) was in a accident while driving his 18 wheeler. However no one was hurt and the only thing was that Jeremy had to sit still for a few hours while a tow truck came and was able to pull him off the embankment. Oh did i forget to mention that it was filled with water. We thank God for this.

Blessed.....
We were just at a mission conference and was blessed so much by the mission heart of this church. I was so amazed by the generosity and love from the church. Saturday they had a "missionary shower", and was so blessed by all the wonderful gifts they gave us. We walked away thanking God and them for the wonderful blessing they were to us. Thank you for the blessing you were to us Wick Rd Baptist Church!!!!

Traveling
We recently have started our busy schedule again with 3 mission conferences and 1 mission month, plus Easter. We start a mission conference tonight and looking forward to seeing what the Lord will do during the conference. Last night we went to church in North Carolina and ended up getting bad directions and arriving a few minutes late to church. The church was a very nice church and the people were very friendly. Praying all is well with you please leave us a reply of any questions you have on deputation, field or personal. We have had an answer to part of a prayer request please continue to as we seek the Lord's leading in this prayer.
