We have truly enjoyed this year of ministry at Johnson and Wales and we are thrilled to be in the midst of a God at work in a campus in desperate need of a Saviour. We love these students and we love being at this school in a ministry capacity. It is so amazing knowing that this is what the Lord has chosen for our family. This summer we will be moving closer to the campus and are excited to see how the Lord will use our family again next year. Please be in prayer for these students, our family and the spread of the Gospel in the hearts of the students at JWU. We truly covet them and count on them.
"Know therefore today, and lay it to your heart, that the Lord is God in heaven above and on the earth beneath; there is no other." Deuteronomy 4:39

Outside fun...
May is finally here and we'll be finding out the sex of our new baby this tuesday and so begins the start of a very exciting month. This weekend was an example of just that. I started my weekend with a lovely welcome home from work. I wandered outside when I got home and this is what greeted me.
A great big welcome sign and two of my most favorite people in all the world waited outside to greet me from a hard day at the office (well the OR, but you get my point).
The artist'.
On saturday we headed to Frazier park in Uptown and enjoyed an end of the year fish fry with many of the students from RUF at JWU. We had a great attendance and the Lord held of what looked like a rainy afternoon so that we could enjoy dry fellowship.
Our good friend Jake helped us fry the fish, chicken wings and hush puppies. He did a tremendous job and we are so thankful that he was there to help. God has blessed us with some great and talented friends!
This is just a slice of the crowd that dropped by on saturday, we think there was about 80-100 students and "park inhabitants" that joined us during the evening.
This is another dear friend that joined us at the park, Jessica. Jessica has been a huge asset to the ministry this year in helping with the ladies at JWU. She's in the middle and we appreciate all she has done this year, what a servant!
Some of the girls.

I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy becuase of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus!! (Phil 1:3-6)
