Aug 29, 2010, What Really Matters
Hi friends! It has been a whirlwind year so far. We moved into our house in January, and we got to work. We painted walls, changed carpet, laid tile, hung curtains, and planted a vegetable garden. And, I'm happy to say, most of our home improvements are done!
But, In the wake of all of this work, God has been dealing with my heart.
Having a pretty home is nice, but having a solid relationship with Jesus, and living according to His Word, is what really matters.
I have a renewed desire to encourage you with this website. I am going to remove some of the unnecessary stuff and keep what really matters...
So, look for some changes to the site. And, look for some great new content - focused on God's Word!
God bless you, Karissa

Apr 28, 2010, Awesome Devotional for Young Kids
About 2 weeks ago, we found the "Pray & Play Bible for Young Children" for our 3 year old, Joshua. It has 14 classic bible stories with colorful illustrations. And, after each story, there are songs, prayers, and activities to help understand the story. This book is FUN! Check it out!

Jan 20, 2010, Please Pray
Hi friends,
The people of Haiti experienced a 6.1 magnitude aftershock at 6:03 this morning.
Pastor Brent and a very small team are in the country offering relief and hope in Jesus.
The team is safe, but they said it looks like a bomb went off in the city.
Please pray for the people of Haiti and for continued safety for everyone there trying to help.
I will send out Pastor Brent's updates later today. God bless you.
Jan 11, 2010, Family Update
God is SOOO good! It has been a whirlwind month, but an amazing ride! We had an offer accepted on a house right before Thanksgiving, and we closed escrow last week!!
