Happy Father's Day!
We had a great Father's day! Kenya and Elijah's class handed out little treats for the Dad's at church.
And after church was over we came home and had a "do whatever Dad want's day." We had daddy's favorite breakfast for lunch of Bacon, Eggs and Toast. Then on Daddy''s agenda was a long nap, as he had stayed up way to late getting things ready for Sunday morning. Mom was at a homeschool conference all of Saturday and it is hard for him to get things done, when there are 2 kids who want to play with daddy all day. We then went out for ice cream and came home and snuggled watching a movie. It dosen't sound like much, but it was bliss for us.
We are being so blessed by the people the Lord is bringing to Calvary Ellensburg. There have been some new families that are so sweet and the Holy Spirit is definantly doing a work in their lives bringing them closer to Him. We are so excited they have decided to share this experience with us at Calvary Ellensburg. The set up and take down is getting smoother and quicker every week. Between 3 vehicles we can get it all there and back by 1:00 and have the rest of the day for fellowshiping and rest.
We are kicking off our summer BBQ's on Thurday night's starting on July 3rd. We have one more week of Thursday night Bible Study and then fun and food all summer long. We have men's and woman's activities going on through out the summer and we are getting so excited for all the fall ministries to get started. As this is all new stuff for us and we are excited to see what the Lord will do.
Thank you for all of your prayer for the trial. It got continued to August 17th, as the defense had not interviewed the kids, and the Lord is so good to provide, as we met a girl who works for the prosecuter's office in Ellensburg and she was able to give us so much insite into what we need to do to make sure Kenya and Elijah are getting all of the rights that they deserve in the legal system. We weren't sure who we needed to go to to make sure we were informed of what they have to do and what we could say no to, as far as appts., questionings and what things will work to our favor or not. She was able to answer all of these questions for us and we would not have been able to use all of that info. if the trial was today.
We still need prayer for CPS we are still praying about wether to get anyone else involved or just send in for another hearing and see what the Lord will do. I have always had a hard time with the "Be Still" or the "go and do" decisions. I always want to "go and do" and many times I just need to be still and trust. We know He is already the Victor, so we are not stressed out, just need prayer to keep trusting. We know he has promised that "all things work to the good of those who love Him." So we know it will all work out.
We are headed to Wannecut lake in Eastern Wa. for Monday and Tuesday. Tadd will not be able to go as he has to work. But his parents and sister are there and we have gone the last couple of years to go fishing with Grandpa. Since we have been here, we have heard a lot of "when can we go fishing mom?" So we decided we better make time to go. Thank you all for walking this amazing journey with us and praying for His will to be done in our lives and in this new work in Calvary Ellensburg. May your week be filled with illistrations of His love.

It sounds like you all are keeping busy doing the Lord's business. It is so great to hear what's going on through these posts. I know Tadd and Billy talk a lot but your conversations rarely get passed on to me...like the good ol' days. I will be praying for peace and patience through the rest of your trial...literally. I love you guys so much.
ps...Charity, I noticed some of your totes had stickers on them. could you take care of that for me?
