This Week's Scripture
"Nor shall you bring an abomination into your house, lest you be doomed to destruction like it." Deuteronomy 7:26
This Week's Prayer!
We invite Your Holy Spirit to dwell in these rooms, which belongs to Henry, Anthony, Zoƫ, Asa, Rose, Grace, and Elijah, and in Heidi, Angel, and Angela's room. You are Lord over heaven and earth, and we proclaim that You are Lord over their rooms as well. Flood it with Your light and life. We pray that You, Lord, will make their rooms a holy place, sanctified for Your glory. And may You also dwell in our room and in each one of our extended family and friend's rooms.

just love all these sweet little feet and toes!

even the dirty ones! :)

We are blessed to be able to have a booth at HPC's next Live the Dream Women's conference which is this Thursday-Saturday! Awesome Awesome! You can read more about what we are doing
here.
After this week I should be able to update this blog more regularly! Children are great! We are all loving this cool weather. We even had our first hot dog and marshmallow roast Friday night!! Fun Fun!!

My Mom and I enjoyed HPC's Live the Dream Conference this weekend. Thanks to Tommy who watched the children the whole time, I was able to have quality time with my Mom and with God! This was the second LTD conference and it was awesome! It was a great time for me to be fed spiritually by some great speakers:
April Simmons,
Chris Caine,
Pastor Dino Rizzo, and
Delynn! I love them so much I have already signed up for next year! There is just something about having God-ordained women speak life in you and encourage you in your God given dreams. This was the first time I have heard April speak and she was awesome. I love funny stories that make me really laugh to the point of tears and April told one about a garbage can that definitely made me laugh to the point of tears. Chris is a regular at our church but her messages are always a fresh new word about basically being sold out to Him! I always leave challenged after listening to her message. Of course, Pastor drives it home with a great message that stirs the soul but what excites me the most is that Delynn is walking on a new path that God has called her to in the past year which is taking her post at raising up and empowering Godly women! I feel tremendously blessed to be part of a church that sees this as a priority.

Since Thursday, I have been encountering God in a deeper way! HPC had their very first
Live the Dream Women's conference!! WOW!! It was amazing! I was able to hear
Christine Caine, from Australia's Hillsong church, who was abandoned as a baby with no name, didn't find out she was adopted until she was 30 and had a decision to make to be mad and be a victim or use her story to touch others with similar stories! She chose the latter and she is a woman who is ON FIRE for God and lives her life to reach the lost! She is blunt mixed with humor, and no compromising (which I love) God's word. If just Chris Caine was speaking that would have been enough for me! But then there was
Holly Wagner who is a breast cancer survivor. She is also so funny and has a heart to empower women to reach their potential in God!! And then there was
Tammy Trent, artist and singer, who told her heartbreaking story about losing her husband in a diving accident in Jamaica and how God was everything she needed!! Ok, there was not a dry eye in the place! The weekend was just so awesome! Just what I needed. I already have many dreams in my heart and the heart of the conference was to stir up the dream each woman holds in them! Well, mine was stirred and I left each day ready to CONQUER THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!! They have already planned next years and I am already anticipating going! If you did not make it this time, you have a year to prepare for the next one!! LOL!! Even if you live out of town, there were many who travelled to be there!
And THANKS to my wonderful, awesome Man and my Mom for watching our children so that I could go get fed!!!!!!
