A Tale of Two Cities

I have never read "A Tale of Two Cities". Call me illiterate....but I don't remember reading it. I'm sure I will have to some time, since I am homeschooling my children. haha!

But I am now living my real life "Tale of 2 Cities". I have been in Texas for three months......helping my inlaws. At first, my father-in-law was having chemo treatments, looking forward to recovery. A little over a month later, we were planning his funeral. Now, a month and a half later, I am still here.

I miss our home. But we have found this awesome church family who have welcomed us with open arms. They have revived a spark in me that I haven't felt in a long time. I used to be a children's/youth director, so I had the chance to be around some awesome people. After leaving the ministry, I felt a part of me had died. All those retreats, planning Bible Studies and watching teenagers transform spiritually before my eyes was over.....or so I thought. I am getting to see it again as a volunteer now. :)

It will be hard to leave family here.....but it will be sooo very hard to leave the church family we found. We have only been there 2 weeks, and already people are calling us "part of the family". How cool is that. Here is a clip about Easter Sunday.....

See why it will be hard to leave? But, we will try to get back every other month or so. And then, we will have Revolution Church to attend, worship and serve!
