bittersweet!

This weekend was a whirl wind of events for us. My husband, Matt, felt the call to full-time ministry about 2 years ago. For the past 2 years, God's answer was to wait. A couple of different times during the course of those 2 years, he sent out his resume to a few different churches. We never heard back from any of those churches. So, we kept waiting.

A couple of months ago, he felt it was time to persue the ministry again. And this time, God started openning doors for us! He was contacted by a church in Alabama. This weekend, the church invited us down for a face-to-face interview and for him to lead worship on Sunday morning. After the service ended, the church voted to "call" him to a full time ministry position! We are so excited for this opportunity and it seems that the church is equally excited too! We will be packing up this week and moving to Alabama! We are happy and sad all at the same time. Happy for this new journey and sad to be leaving our family and friends.

Here is a clip of Matt leading worship at our current church.
