Thank the Lord for the Sunshine

Today was the first Saturday for three weeks that we have been able to go out letterboxing so we give thanks to the Lord for the Rain as it was needed but we also give thanks to the Lord for the Good weather we had today to be able to letterbox all of one area, Praying that we get some visitors from it, After letterboxing we had lunch with Pastor and his family, We spend a lot of time with them, they are a great family and its great to be following the Lord again.
Well best head off and print the church Bulletin, and finsh the work on the church letter head..
may the Lord keep you all in his will.
Love Rachel
Thanks to all of you who continue to pray for our silent request.

Thanked the Lord for Answered Prayer

Hey all.....
Just wanting to give thanks to the Lord for our Local Church and being able to fellowship with other Christians we had a friendship Sunday and we had 32 people in the morning and 65 in the Evening and after both services we had good food and a good time with the visitors..It was a whole day affair and Josh sang twice with the Pastor's son... The day after being Monday was a public holiday and Pastor invited us for lunch we ended up spending the whole day and having dinner with them also...
Saturday just gone Josh and i went out fro dinner with the Pastor and his family so we are able to enjoy more fellowship with them, we went to Lonestar and the Steak was great... On Sunday we went to the morning service and after the morning service Pastor witnessed to Rikki-lee and praises to the Lord she got saved, which is another answer to Prayer for me...we again spent the whole day with Pastor and his family and at evening service my sisters got up and sang a special which was really nice to see.
Update: Josh still busy working, had an injury at work boxes fell on his nose last Friday , thank the Lord the corner missed is eye (came close though) he is back at work missed only 6 hours of work... He is still not smoking cigarettes and is doing very well with that which is good....
attending every service at church and its all going really well
I will ask you all to still pray about our silent request.... Will let you all know when it is answered.....
Thanks again
Take care and God Bless

Quick Hello

Prayer Request

Greetings to all,
Josh and I have a silent request we would like you to pray with us about....
thank you for your help on this..
Love Josh and Rach

Greetings

Hey all,
sorry it has been awhile since the last post.... We have been filling our days with church, cleaning, (josh working), Letterboxing is a weekly thing for our church, and getting ready for Sunday coming it is Friendship Sunday and we are having a Pot Luck Dinner in the evening.
Josh today will be meeting with the Pastor's Son today for song practise as they found out last Sunday that Pastor would like then to sing a special in the morning and one in the evening. For Sunday I am making my Potato Salad (a Stewart favourite) some Marinated chicken and a cake
I would also like to give praise to the Lord for his Provision...... Two days ago i noticed what looked like a bed out the front of a new neighbours yard it had been there since they moved in last week... The Son was out playing and i asked if it was a bed or a cot as couldn't really see from my house, he said a cot i asked if they were getting rid of it and offered to buy it. His mum came out and said that she was just going to give it away, i asked if she minded if i took it off her hands and she gave it to us.... it is worth over $500 and we have gotten it for free with a mattress too...
Her husband came out while Josh and I were getting the Cot and asked if we needed anything else as we are trying to gather things for when we move out... The husband said he has a washer, dryer, vacuum cleaner, microwave, and a whole lot of stuff, we asked how much he said just take it..... So we are giving a HUGE thanks to the Lord
May the Lord keep you all safe and well
take care, Rachel
