Hello again!

Back again this week! We are off to a good start! I thought I would write today since tomorrow I start at my new job and do not know how the day will be. Thank you, in advance, for your prayers as I adjust and learn a lot.

This past week has been wonderful! Julie (Jamie's sister) came on Tuesday night and we got to hang out with her. Joni and her boyfriend Mike came EARLY Wednesday morning. My parents and our good friend Regina joined us on Wednesday afternoon/night and my mom's parents came on Thursday! So, we had a ton of fun with a lot of people around! We all stayed at a hotel a few miles from our house and very much so enjoyed the pool, hot tub, and rooms we had! It was such a blessing!!!

Clint worked a lot toward the beginning of the week and then was able to relax for the second half. We were blessed to have Julie stay with us for the rest of the weekend and we had an amazing and relaxing time with her. It was great to be around family for a few days!

We love you all and it means a ton that you care about our lives! God continues to grow and teach us in life. Continue to pray that He would fill us with His Spirit and that we would experience Him in new ways. Pray also that we would love others and strive to live for God's glory.

Think of you all often!
Clint and Jamie

So sorry...

Well, it has been a long while. We are so very sorry! Clint started the blog, but his load has been too heavy and it has gotten neglected. All to say...I am going to take over for a little while (like the rest of the school year).

Okay, as an update of the last month or so...

• The retreat that was talked about in the last update went really well. Brian Bradford and the worship team did an amazing job and really led everyone closer to the Lord. Every student that came made a decision to join in on the revolution that God is doing in our world! We want to be a part of whatever God lead's us to!
• I (Jamie) actually finished my undergrad. degree (for good now) and started applying to jobs within my field. I start a job through Indiana University school of nursing/Healthy families of Indiana called the MOM's project on Monday, Nov. 29th. I'm really excited about this! It has been amazing watching God bring it all together. I will miss the people at Maggiano's where I was waitressing, but it will be so great to see Clint more and do a job that I am super passionate about. The job is working with new and/or young mom's and teaching them parenting skills as well as some life skills. I will keep you all updated to how it goes and thank you for your prayers as I begin next week.
• Clint had the opportunity to go to the Willow Creek preaching conference and then recently to North Point Community Church in Atlanta. These were great vision stretching times and Clint is very excited about all that God will do as the church prays and obeys where God leads (I'm excited too).

That is the short of it! This week is Thanksgiving and my family (except for Josh and Kari, of course) will be down here in Indianapolis. We are staying in a hotel and are all very excited! A little bit longer and Josh and Kar will be with us too and then in May we'll be in with Clint's family!

We love you and miss you all! Thanks again for your prayers and I really will try to update you all each week! Thanks for your patience!

Clint and Jamie
