Sujo John Ministries

So glad the Lord worked in a miraculous way and spared the life of this man of God through the tragedy of 9-11. It's amazing how God is using him to win souls. I'm so glad our home church gets to partner with Sujo John Ministries. Take a minute to read his miraculous story. May we NEVER forget! Sujo John Ministries

Chick-fil-A.......

was open for business today in our home! I have been craving their original sandwich for sometime. I knew there were many homemade recipes floating around the net, I just never thought to make my own. Until.... today! The secret is marinading your chicken breasts in dill pickle juice and powdered sugar in your flour mixture.

Surprisingly, they turned out delicious right down to my homemade half sours pickles! All I
need next is the waffle fries from Austria, coleslaw recipe, and thick homemade milkshake for dessert.

I know some may say..."It's just a chicken sandwich.". Well, if you lived on the road of deputation for a while, all those "other" places just got old! Chick-fil-A has always been consistent in their service, cleanliness,and good food. I don't mind spending extra for quality when we can. Christian businesses deserve our business when we can.

Come to Jesus (Untitled Hymn)

Where ever you are and whatever you are going through Christ's love is always constant. You can always "come to Jesus" and He will be there to meet you where you're at. So thankful for that! ;) (even whe nI fail Him) Love it!

He's Home

We were in for the shock of our life when our Pastor's son called Kevin asking him to be the guest speaker for the Pasotr's Anniversary service. I quickly told him, "Say, yes!". He thought and prayed about it though overnight and gave the final answer soon after. There was nothing here pressing to where he couldn't make the trip and besides... I certainly needed things from America! :) LOL

All kidding aside, Kevin was honored to be the secret, special guest for our Pastor. The service was a success and I'm sure Kevin preached a wonderful message. (not that I'm biased or anything) Gotta stand behind my man! :) My mom was glad for him to be there and help ge the last of our stuff packed and airmailed to Croatia. I sent him and my mom to fulfill my list of wants and needs and... now he's HOME. Even though his visit was short and sweet, it was still enough time to love on some nieces and nephews for us. That's the only sad thing about us all not going.... missing out on seeing a new niece for the first time.

I know the a furlough will be not so long down the road. We have already been here 11 months! WOW!! Can't wait to celebrate our 1st full year here. We are currently planning ou Pastor and Gail's trip over to see us at the end of September.

Summer sure is flying by on our side of the world! On a side note~ we had a full church house last night!! We didn't even have to have food or anything special... they just showed up! (and I didn't have my camera do document it ) (: That's just a "God thing". What a way to encourage us to keep on serving Him even when it seems like we are not making a difference! Praise the Lord!!

fomny, Fomny, FOMNY!!

I absolutely LOVE watching TV while I'm getting my things done around the house! It seems to help the time pass by quickly and make my chores less painful. LOL Moving to Croatia kind of through a kink in my usual routine. We can get cable here with many of the same channels I loved. Maybe sometime in the future... right now we don't need it. However, I am hooked on Fomny TV! It allows me stream live TV from America. I love it... except for when there is something I want to watch that comes on in the evening in the US! That time difference thing is such a pain.
The only exception I made was to watch Revival that was streaming live with our favorite evangelist Randy Perry. Revival started @ 1am for me, 7pm in the US. Call me crazy, I just really needed to hear some good preaching and singing. The Lord really blessed and challenged me to draw closer to HIM. Technology is amazing! You can find Fomny HERE.

Rain..... AGAIN

Rain always makes Sundays interesting crazy! Gloomy days make our children irritable, they are lovers of sunshine and warmth! We needed it though as I'm sure much of America does also.

Despite the rain though we had an AWESOME attendance in church this morning. Praying for an awesome kids meeting!
