Baby,baby!

I wanted to post some pictures of the newest babies in my life :) The one to the right is little Adam, who I wrote about a few months ago. He is now 4 months old, and getting so big! He looks a lot like his mama, Kristin. The other baby is DeMarcus who was born early August to one of my girls, Inez. Inez has been coming to youth group for years, and I met her 4 years ago when I started volunteering. She is now 19 and I'm so thankful she is still in my life! I hired this summer as my administrative assistant. Even though she was VERY pregnant, she faithfully came to work each day. Please pray for her as she gets ready to go back to school this fall as well as begin this new chapter of her life.

I also posted a picture of one of my girls, Ashley with my nephew, Nicholas. I watched Nicholas while my brother and niece were at a Tigers game. Ashley came over and hung out with him for awhile too. She is so great with kids, and such a joy to have around :) I love this girl like a sister, and am SO excited about what God is doing in her life

Please pray for me as I need to focus on fundraising for the next few weeks. I plan on heading back to Grand Rapids to speak at some churches and meet with people. I have a significant amount of money I need to raise before we are able to start fall programming, but am trusting that God will provide! He seems to continually grow and stretch me in this area, but each time, He also strengthens my faith as He shows Himself to be so faithful.
