We Are Back!!

Well we got home from KY late Sunday night and I have just now gotten the opportunity to sit down here at the computer and post about the trip. We had a wonderful spiritually uplifting trip. Our purpose was to go there and uplift the brethren but we truly received a blessing in it. We were in meeting with the brethren there a total of 4 times in 4 days and every meeting was great. We had meeting at the church in Liberty 2 nights and then Saturday we had a pitch in at Bro. Marvin and Sis. Jan's house and then a church meeting in there yard after, it was beautiful. The main topic of the preaching seemed to be "Are you ready??" and it was beautiful how all of the brothers who taught were on the same page. It was very evident that the Spirit was working!! Another blessing was that JoHannah usually doesn't sleep when we are away from home but she slept great and we didn't have any problems. I do have a prayer request though my husband received a prophecy telling him that he had received a great blessing and that he would have a great trial awaiting him when he returned home. I would like prayer that we can handle (With God's help of course) what ever this trial may be with the grace that God expects us to. I say we because any trial that my hubby faces I face too because we are one. Well I am glad to be home and I am sorry that I don't have pictures to show you but I am not a great picture taker I forget that I have my camera and also I am leery of posting pics of others with out their permission. Well I hope everyone is well and now I need to get busy reading all of your blogs. Love and Prayers!!

I'm thankful you were uplifted. You will draw on this experience in the days ahead.

My prayers will be with your family but I will also pray that you will be the help meet to your companion as the scriptures talk about. One that will comfort and be strong. That your faith will be steadfast and unmovable.

It seams like whenever we try to go encourage and comfort the brethren we end up being the one's that are encouraged =D. I love that! I love it when we hear a topic here in meeting, then i call my Sissy 400 miles away and tell her about church and she says "wow, we heard the same thing!". That tends to happen alot. Its a precious manifestation that the spirit is directing meeting.

Glad to hear you had an uplifting trip. I'll keep you and your family in my prayers. <3

I checked on google/maps and it's only a 2 1/2 hour trip from Indy to KY? That's not too bad... It's great to have brethren to go visit that (not too)far away that you are close with. Glad you are home safe!

Sis. Lori the trip is actually about 4 hours from here. But it is still not to bad we are about 2 hours from the state line and then we travel about 2 hours into KY.
