Alaska Housing

The final details on the Alaska end are coming together! We will be staying in the trailer attached to the current church. A lady from the church that has been living there has graciously moved out for the summer so we can move in. It has two bedrooms (one is used for church stuff on Sunday) and laundry. It will be an adventure for us to live in 900sq ft with 3 boys! There is even rumoured to be a spot for a garden?!

God continues to bless us with unexpected gifts from His store house and we can say we are just a smidgen away from being fully funded. He told me last summer that He had already provided the money to do this mission and He has.

cleaning house

Our goal this week is to clean the house- including the basement. Since its been raining we don't have an excuse not to do it. After a 4 hour effort by the whole family
yesterday the basement is done! On to other areas today. It's hard to imagine being away all
Summer but God has called us to serve and we will obey- convience and comfort are not important. Following our God is.

Travel Help

Since we will be in the truck for 72 hours or so- it would be greatly appreciated if you could loan us DVDs, books on CD, travel games or any sort of other activites for kids!

One month away

Wow! Just one month until we leave. I've been doing alot of packing of the camping gear, some food stuff and clothes. Having to think in terms of taking 3 months of clothes and supplies is a little more challanging. Hopefully there will be enough room in the truck.
God is so faithful and we are so excited to see what He is doing and going to do in Alaska. Continue to pray that the construction project will fall into place as work crews are formed, funds are provided for materials and lives will be changed for the glory of His kingdom.
We are still praying and looking out for a family that might be in need of a house for a short time this summer.
