Hey Everyone,

       We see a lot of posts about prayer and struggles.  I just wanted to take time to say  am so THANKFUL for PD and all she has done to create this network of amazing women.  You all have prayed with and for me and I am so thankful I have you all to talk with.  It was GREAT meeting a few of you at the Unstoppable conference!
     I wanted to share a little or alot.  I just have to thank God because some amazing things have come about through our struggles here.  Our churh is starting to grow and we had two new people become official members...which is huge when your church is under 30 people.  The congregation is starting to accept my leadership and me being behind the pulpit, another huge victory.  It feels like we have finally started turning the corner and for that we can't stop praising His Name!
   You all are part of this!  You have been there praying with me and for us and I am forever grateful.  Keep praying and I will keep praying for you!

   Also if you don't already know, Pastor Deanna is Africa this week.  She is blogging a bit about it at her blog www.deannashrodes.blogspot.com  remember to keep her in prayer this week.

Thanks gang!
love ya
Melissa
