Happy New Year!! We traveled from Des Moines to Davenport on Monday the 2nd. We are geared up for our internship with Harvest Bible Chapel Davenport. We spent Monday and Tuesday night at the Cochran's house....Thank you for your hospitality! Jamy is a huge football fan so the boys were excited to watch the Rose Bowl with them on Monday night.
Tuesday morning John began his internship with a nice long day. He left the house at 7am and then we meet him for dinner at 9pm. The kids and I just went around the city for the day and ended up at the mall. Nattalie was excited because she found a great deal on a jacket! She is so proud of her find!! The kids were excited to see Dad at 9pm for dinner.
Wednesday John was off again early in the morning.....his day started at 6:00am this morning. HBC Davenport is making sure to get John involved in as many ministries as possible this month. The kids and I got up at took all of our things to the Merrifield's house. This is where we will be staying for the month on January. We thought that we would be able to start school on Wednesday, but after getting all our things in place, me making a bunch of phone calls and then going grocery shopping the day was almost over. We relaxed a little before it was time for dinner and then it was time to head to church for youth group. Another large youth group for the kids to get involved in....they really seemed to enjoy themselves. We met up with John when we got to church. John and I together observed the high school youth group. Came home and it was time to hit the bed as we were all tired!
Thursday.....wow this week is just flying by. John left off for work again bright and early! We had a breakfast scheduled together to meet some of the family leaders of the church. We had a fantastic time....and we found a great place to go on a "date breakfast" on Monday! While I was at breakfast the kids began to work on their school work and then we hit to books hard when I got home. Wow, it's been a while since we have done school with moving and then Christmas. I think as Monday comes we will have our routine back down.
Friday, as normal John headed off to work and the kids and I worked hard on school! We pulled back out our Greek....we are in a new section and they all start with review so that was very helpful. We are all ready for new Greek words....it has been fun to learn this together. We are hopeful that after we have completed the full course that we will be able to study the New Testament in the original language. Part of the Greek lessons we will be to completely translate the book of John.
Tomorrow the entire family gets to work together with one of HBC Davenport's ministries.....King Harvest....looking forward to serving together! Then we will also go to Saturday service together.....excited to worship at Harvest Davenport!
Please pray for our family as this will be a very busy month for us. We are getting as much information as we possibly can in one month while we are here. We are very thankful for how HBC Davenport has welcomed us and are loving on us while we are here. Clear Lake will be home SOON! Continue to pray for Harvest Bible Chapel Clear Lake....Lord build Your church!
