We're going back again!

So, we made it through the 8 hours of interview. Whew! We were exhausted and it literally was 8 hours, but time did not drag by and there was a very sweet spirit. Before we could get home, we got a call. One of their committee members had had to leave unexpectedly and wasn't there at all and another one was only able to be there for a small portion of our time there. The missing committee members is their main concern. So, they have asked us to come back. This time they will have an open house for us on Saturday night for people to come meet us. They want Michael to preach on Sunday morning. Then there will be a pot-luck after church followed by a question/answer period with the whole church. Then the committee will get together again and if the people who weren't there this weekend like us as much and those who were there this weekend, they are expecting to recommend to the congregation that they call us!!!

We are very excited and nervous. We ask, among other things, that you would pray against a spirit of fear. At different times during the weekend, Michael and I were both seized with a spirit of fear: "you guys can't do this," "what are you thinking," "you have no idea what you are doing," etc. We realize that this is an attack from Satan. We know that God will always enable us to do what He has called us to do and we have peace about the process that we are in the midst of right now. So, please pray with us against ungodly fear in our lives as we seek and follow the Lord. Thanks, we love you.
