This is my MBM from last week.
Overwhelmed with joy and thankfulness as I watch the Lord
move mighty mountains for this sweet little ministry called
"Bread For Life".
(Soon to be a non-profit- Woo-Hoo!!)
Praising Him all the way!

After a huge weekend of bread sales
and a busy month of BFL,
I am looking forward to a week of rest
and Thanksgiving.
I am in awe of all the Lord has done.
He has demonstrated His power in such a way
that leaves me speechless
(Oh, me of little faith).
ALL the glory and praise will continually flow
upward to Jesus for all He has done.
$5,100 in one month?
Yes!!
Bringing our overall total to over $15,000 in less than 1 year.
Off pumpkin bread! HA!
Would you have ever imagined?
O.N.L.Y. H.I.M.
I believe the Lord is moving mountains
on behalf of His orphaned children;
once again demonstrating His heart
for the needy and abandoned.
I am humbled to have a front row seat
to such a sweet move of the Spirit.
Nobody could write a story like this... nobody!
I'm also so thankful for all the wonderful people
in my life watching this unfold with me;
so thankful for all the love, support, prayers,
and encouragement along the way.
And just to think, this is just the beginning
of what the Lord has in store.
Glory to God and praise Jesus!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
"Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain,
‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’
and does not doubt in his heart,
but believes that what he says will come to pass,
it will be done for him.
Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer,
believe that you have received it, and it will be yours."

(More blog posts to follow with details of the amazing stories
that took place this past month.
It's taking me more time than I thought to put this all down on paper.
God is a God of detail. Amazing, flawless detail. Praise Him!)
Today our family is on a mission. However, our story began back in 2003. We were married, blessed with 3 beautiful children and the world’s best loving little Shiz-Tu of a man-dog! (We really love him. Probably too much. But that is not what this blog is about!)
My husbands name is Chris but my kids and I call him ‘Papa’! We have been married for over 8 years. We have seen some amazing mountain tops in our marriage and we have also swam in the depths of the oceans floor. We know that God is alive, working and ALL POWERFUL. We are living proof!
Our children are amazing. They REALLY do make us laugh. So many times we just look at each other and shake our heads because they are so cute and unpredictable. They force us to learn humility, mercy and grace constantly and we fail daily. It’s actually very sobering.
We are completely broken people. Sinners in need of grace, forgiveness and mercy like you need air and water. We give our brokenness to Jesus. We turn in all our failures and sinful ways in hopes that Jesus will use these vessels (our lives, our bodies) for His ultimate and complete Glory and unto His Kingdom.
What is this blog about? It’s about Jesus and Orphans!
As you will read, we are now on a mission. To love the orphan! To serve HIS children and help provide for any urgent needs we encounter.
We originally were praying about adoption. However, we are now praying that the Lord would just SEND US, if that is His plan.
We have started a ministry called, "Bread For Life" and we bake and sell bread to help raise money for children in need. It began in December of 2011, we have raised almost $20,000! This little ministry is being turned into a non-profit and we are seeking the Lord for what He has in store for us next.
If you can get past all the misspelled words, run on sentences and confusing grammar than sit back and be encouraged! God is on the move in our hearts and we are thrilled! We invite you to laugh, cry, pray, rejoice and hope that Christ be glorified through our lives.
There is a war to fight and we are headed to battle!
This is our mission, Our Story.
(To start at the beginning of our blog, 
Adoption Timeline: May 23, 2011 Passports * June 6, 2011 Fingerprinting * Getting paperwork completed for homestudy * Woe, hold up... Lord are you calling us... are we to "GO!" and adopt/serve/teach/love/feed? ... Hold on. This calling just got a lot more exciting! Stay tuned!
