God's Calling

Hello Friends! I just wanted to update everyone on the latest from Taylor's Heart for Haiti. Since the last update, there have been several large donations for houses in Haiti. Taylor's original goal was to have raised $2500.00 (which is the cost of one house) by June 30, 2011. God had different plans however. Taylor is on house number five and will soon be on house number six. God has connected us with several different people that have allowed Taylor to share her heart. He has blessed above and beyond what we thought was even possible. The next step in this journey is to begin planning the trip where a team (to include both of her grandfathers, father, and Pastor) will travel to Haiti. We are still praying for God to work the details out and pave the way for this money to impact the Haitian community by meeting basic physical needs, but most importantly meeting the spiritual needs as well. We covet your prayers for this mission that God has called upon Taylor. She continues to pray for Haiti daily and her commitment to the calling God has placed on  her life has not diminished, but has grown.

I never grasped the love God has for me until He blessed me with children of my own. He has taught me so much through my children and I thank Him daily for allowing Jacob and I the opportunity to love and encourage Taylor and Baylee (Taylor's sister). Thank you all for your support and the love and encouragement you have shown Taylor through this journey. My prayer is that she will stay true to her calling and that neither Jacob or I would ever hinder God's work in her life but allow God to use her. We know that we only have her for a few short years and she will be grown, making her own decisions. I pray that she will continue to seek and follow God as she is now. Until next time, love and blessings your way.
