Answered prayers always make for a good day...

Yesterday morning, I had no work...again. We are at the end of our month (all of our orders for my inspection job come in on the 16th, so we're wrapping up work for November). Corrie awoke early and got stressed out by all of the bills piling up.... so, we prayed as usual for God's Kingdom to come into our lives in it's fullness and Corrie added specifically for bills to get paid! Well, we received another support update from one of our awesome Michigan friends. They sent a pledge of $50 a month... with the first check arriving yesterday. Go God! I love when He prepares to answer our prayers before we even ask for anything. See the right-hand column for a full support update.

Also, one of our new friends in our small group is going to loan Corrie and I the next two books on our training list (see previous post on December 7th). God is so amazing as He continues to answer our prayers.

So, here's a new one for you all to offer up to the Lord. Corrie has been applying for jobs and/or is trying to find some children to babysit for extra income. Father come and bring your results to this in Jesus' name.

Thanks for all of the prayers and support friends! Keep it going...

Consider making a Christmas donation to the Adventure...

Hi friends and family!
Lots going on in the hearts and lives of the Waters' Adventure right now. Corrie is helping out quite regularly in the kids' ministry, Adam is leading worship at small group off and on, the kids are bouncing off the walls excited about Christmas, we're training, reading extensively, praying for our community and sooo much more.

During this Christmas season, we'd love for you to take some time and consider donating to the work here in Illinois. We are in need of a few things that your gifts would help out with, but these are the big ones:
(1)the purchase of 5 books needed to complete our training with Vineyard.
(2)Christmas presents for the family.
(3)Gas for our travels {both Adam's inspection job & trips to our Vineyard campuses}

Thanks for your prayers!

Medical Blessings

After Corrie was laid off, we lost our health insurance. Today was a good day. We were all able to get on Illinois Medicade. Good stuff until the job situation gets worked out. A lot of paperwork, but Jesus is faithful!
