Our First Week in Arkansas

Some pictures from our trip to Arkansas:

When we arrived in Arkansas, Northwest Community Church surprised us by stocking our pantry!


Well, we are here!  After spending Thanksgiving with Amilee's parents, we left from Valdosta on Sunday morning and planned to break the trip into 2 days since it would be such a long drive.  On Sunday evening, however, we found out that a bad ice storm was headed for Northwest Arkansas and we were advised to go ahead and drive it all in one day.  So, we spent 18 hours in the car with three little kids and arrived at 2:30 am.

The next day, Amilee ended up going to a job interview with a financial advisement company.  This is the same place where Adrienne Fincher worlds full time.  Amilee started this job today and will be working 1-2 days a week.  We are so thankful that God has allowed her to find something part time, where she will still be able to homeschool and be with our children the remainder of the week.

Scott is in the process of applying for substitute teaching positions right now.  Please pray that God opens the right doors for him and supplies him with a part-time job so that he can work at Northwest Community Church the rest of the week.

Right now, we are unpacking and sorting through all of our belongings.  We have moved into Scott's parents house, but it is currently on the market, so we are trying not to unpack everything.

Thank you for your prayers and support.  We were overcome with emotion as we said goodbye to all of our friends in Macon, but we know we must be obedient to follow God's leading in our lives. Please pray with us that God uses us to reach out to those in Northwest Arkansas who do not know Christ.
