In Process

The renovation is underway! Many hours of hard work have been spent in this house transformation. Man, I sure wish it was as quick and easy as watching an episode of Extreme Home Make Over or an episode of a HGTV show... but reality check... we do not have a massive budget, a large work crew, editing or commercials. :)

It has definitely been a challenge in balancing family, ministry & renovations.

We had a little set back this week... our family went through the stomach flu... not fun at all, especially when you & your husband are both sick at the same time and need to care for three little ones! Thankfully, we are all on the mend!

And so goes the process... I guess sometimes transformation does not always happen as soon as we would like it to... there are challenges, set backs and hurdles along the way.

But as we fix our eyes on the vision and purpose, God gives us the grace and strength we need to press on!

We are thankful for many of you who have blessed us with your time and labor! We know that this endeavor cannot be accomplished without help... from the carrying of the massive 400lb support beam,

cleaning, painting, electrical work, removing insulation, moving boxes to helping care for our children... Thank you! At times we struggle to ask for help, not wanting to burden others, but reminded that it is important to express needs and give others the opportunity to come along side you.

So we continue to the process... More to come!
