Loss

When we obeyed Gods call to Uganda, we knew that this would not be an easy decision, leaving family and friends behind. But we knew that God would be there for us.

I do have to say I am now experiencing that hardest trial since we have been here.

I received a call today that my father has passed away. This is the man that has always been there throughout my entire life, the man that was always supportive in my choices, the man that pushed me to achieve the goals I set out to achieve. The man that took his time to patiently skype with his daughter and offer her his advice from halfway around the world. The man that loved me for who I was. Sounds so much like our Father in Heaven now doesn't it? Heavenly Father please hold me right now as I feel like a part of me has died with my earthly one.

Please pray for the children and I as we grieve. Please pray for Randy as he is in the states and not able to be with his family during this trying time. Please pray for my extended family in the states, for understanding as to why we cannot return for the funeral, and for healing.

Thank you all for being such great prayer warriors for us
Blessings!
