Okay, so the announcement has been made and as you might have guess by now my husband gave his resignation to the church last night.  This was not an easy decision for us to make.  The Lord has been dealing with us for several months (both of us).  I was praying about it and not saying anything to DH while he was praying about it and not saying anything to me.  When he finally mentioned to me how he was feeling a few weeks ago, I told him how I had been praying about the same thing.  The Lord has a way of preparing our hearts for things ahead of time.

So, we will continue to serve at our current church for 30 days.  September 4 will be our last Sunday there. It is exciting and scary at the same time because we know the Lord has led us to this decision and that he will open a door for us to serve him somewhere but until then not knowing is scary and the financial aspect of it is real scary.  But, my faith is strong and I know without a doubt that the Lord will take care of us.  He always has!

Telling the church last night was hard for DH and it was hard for me too.  I was so nervous!  Some people in the congregation were upset but some people were (probably) happy about it.  I'm thankful for the experience of serving the Lord at this church and I pray that the next Pastor they have there will be what they need to grow spiritually.  I pray that I will grow spiritually as well during this transition.  

But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19
