Satisfaction Through Christ

Remembering Mandy Kelly from Worshipful Living

Tuesday, March 21, started like any other day around our house. I got the kids off to school and came home to do some work. Around 9:30 a member of our Facebook Mastermind Group (a group of about 10 Christian women bloggers that support one another through blogging and life) posted that she'd seen some chatter on Mandy's Facebook profile and wanted to see how we could pray for her.

I’m Pooped!

Ohhh it's been a long week. I have missed my husband SO bad and I have stayed SO busy and the days have crawled by SO slowly...and I am SO tired!I have nothing but great things to blog about...Wednesday night went really well.

Not much news…

I figured I would update, although I have no update!Q is doing well. I haven't actually heard from him since Saturday but have sent messages back and forth on Facebook. They are working really hard. If you get a chance and are on Facebook, you can search "Finish The Wall" and see the work that they are doing in Trinidad. Continued prayers for safety, strength, and God's mighty hand in ministry … {Read More}
