Dear Friends and Family,
If you would like to read it in word format please click here or you can read below:
We hope that your Christmas and New Years were filled with joy, love and praise! We also hope you found time to slow down, enjoy the season, spend time with family and loved ones, and worship our creator!
We had a great Christmas and were blessed to spend some time with both of our families! It was great, and we know it may not always be that way because Mike’s parents are not usually in the States for Christmas time, so we cherished our time with them, as well as with Mike’s older sister, her husband, and two little girls. We enjoyed great food and fun times with my family as well, and continue to be incredibly blessed to live close to them!
Mike and I are very happy to report that Mike found a job! He started working for Spectrum Staffing almost a month ago. He uses his Spanish almost all daylong because he is a Bilingual Staffing Coordinator, and basically he helps Latins (as well as some other people) find jobs. He loves his job, and has had the opportunity to meet some people from Ecuador! We both know his job is from God because the job found him more than he found the job. Also, the people he works for are believers, and they have given Mike permission to pray with any of his clients as the Lord leads. They also allow him to hand out Bilingual Bibles! Mike often jokes that he is getting paid to be a missionary! It was and continues to be a huge blessing.
I, Lindy, have been doing well also. I am working on classes online, and preparing for the baby. My belly is growing lots because the baby now weighs somewhere around 4 ¾ pounds and is around 18 inches long! His or her main priority is to gain weight, and his or her lungs and nervous system are maturing more and more each day. It is amazing to learn about what our little one is going through, and I am always amazed at how much my belly can stretch. Being pregnant has opened my eyes more and more to how amazing our Creator is. His design is so perfect and wonderful.
Mike and I are cherishing our last days without a little one around as much as possible. We are also looking to become involved with some local ministries. We have a possible opportunity to work with a Latin Church-plant, and we are also looking to get more involved with our home church. We are very excited to see where the Lord takes us in regards with the new opportunities before us.
Thank you so much for taking your time to read our little update! We hope it found you well. May the Lord bless you richly!
Love,
Mike and Lindy
