happy halloween!

Good morning! Happy Halloween! I'm dressing  up as a pirate. Well, my Dad is coming in two days! I'm excited! He's bringing me a gift! He says it's something you can eat. I think it's candy. I'm also excited about sights and sounds starting soon! My Dad is going to participate in  it this year. Please keep praying and I hope you have a great halloween!

Adoption

Today, my grandpa, my sister and  I took a stray to the pound. She was hanging around their house . They named her Molly. It was sad watching the lady tae her to her cage, but I know God will take good care of her. Maybe someday someone will adopt her. It reminds of how God adopts us into his family when we believe in him. John 3: 16 says," For God so loved the world that whosoever believes in him shall not perish, but have everlasting life.  God gave his son to die for us, so that we could live forever.

Stepping through the passages

I was born in Springhill, Florida on January 14, 2000. At that time, my dad was working at a camp in Hudson called "Word of Life Bible Institute." It was fun being a baby running around in a diaper screaming at the students I saw. But, soon God led my dad into church ministries. We sadly said our "goodbyes" and left for Pennsylvania where my dad got a job at a church/school called "Mt. Calvary." I went to school there for a while. Even though we didn't have any family up there, God gave us the Hilshers. They were such a blessing to my family and I. Soon, we began having problems in Mt. Calvary. We moved back down to Florida. It was amazing to see my family again, and God gave us an amazing church to work at and a cozy house to live in. Also, in P.A., we had a golden retriever who was unfortunatly blind, and we sadly put him to sleep. But, God was watching, and blessed us with a small, white, fuzzy dog named Bennet and he was the best dog we ever had. So, our life was pretty perfect! Until, one night, everything changed. The pastor told my dad he wanted him to leave. It was very hard for my sister and I to say goodbye. But, again, God was still watching. He told my dad to move to Word of Life, N.Y. God gave us a nice five bedroom log cabin  to live in. Actually, my dad is at a meeting in Cincinnati, Ohio right as I write to you. I pray for him everyday and wish him luck. Pray for me, and my dad, that God would watch us as we enter the next passage.
