A Big Hello!!
Wow!!! We are so excited to hear back from you guys. As you can see I am a fairly new blogger and I can't believe how many old friends we have contacted in just a few days. You have been so encouraging. I thank God everyday for His many blessings, even small ones like these.
We have decided to go thru Baptist Bible Fellowship Int (BBFI). Our pastor from Orlando has really stepped up to the plate and taken us under his wing. The idea is for Andy to go to BBC
in Springfield and receive a Masters of Arts in church ministries with a missions emphasis. This will take about a year and half, about half as short as a Masters of Div. would take. When we went to MO to check out the school we realized it will most likely take us longer because there are a whole lot of other requirements. Ha!! (Tricksters.. we didn't read the fine print). Honestly I left the meeting thinking "this is goinig to be so stinkin hard, this seems impossible... now I also have to take 5-6 courses, Andy will have to do some sort of year long internship, I will be working UGH, UGH!!! God are you sure?...there I go again!!!"
As always things seem to iron themselves out right before I have my conniption fit, thankfully, or I would have been institutionalized by now. Ha! After talking to some advisors it turns out some classes I took at Clearwater Christian will be substituted, so I will not have to take as many as originally thought. Anyway we have all our stuff packed and will be moving on AUG 7th. Our pip-squeeks Justin 13, Madi 7 and Brady 5 will all start school AUG 16. They are thrilled because Andy and I have been talking it up as if we were moving right into Cinderella and Prince charming's castle, in fact, they think it's probably much better.
Again thanks for your encouraging comments, I will try to remain faithful in keeping everyone updated.

Wow! Change is in the air... Cheryl will be heading to Ohio to start her new job this weekend while I tie up things back in Michigan and meet her there. Sounds like you guys are headed for an amazing adventure...
God bless Amy, Andy and the kids in this new journey they are undertaking. Provide for them as You always have Father and pour out Your blessings on them. Thank you for the courage You have given them to serve You with all that they have. May Your Holy Spirit move in them and guide them, Father. We lift them up to You and thank You for them. In Christ's name we ask this, Amen.
Looking forward to more updates Amy, keep it up. By the way, your children are adorable. Say hi to Justin and Andy for us.
Your kids are beautiful (how could they not be) I was going to leave a message on here but I'm pretty sure it would take up all your space so I wrote you an e-mail. Nicole Sherf (tally, can you believe I am a sherf)
i'm sure you guys don't remember me, but i remember you from icbc. i remember how my sister (nicole tally/sherf) always talked about amy and andy and how cool they were. :) i am glad i found your blog and will be excited to watch God work. it is amazing when He moves you to do something you would have never dreamed of.....such great memories are flooding back to recount God's work in my own life. it will be neat to look back on this journey as you grow as a family.
we'll be praying for you.
