Praise...

Praise God and thank you to those of you who have begun to join our prayer force and our support team. God is steadily but surely propelling us closer to the mission awaiting us in Utah. But enough about us, I hope you are well, whoever you are reading this, and that God is blessing your life as you trust and obey Him. He is worth it. He is worth every ounce of our devotion and affection. Kelly and I plan to get everyone a little refrigerator magnet with our faces on it so you can see us smiling at you every time you go for food and then you can pray for us and our mission that we are on for the Lord. God bless!

Utah Ho!

Praise God...I've just been confirmed by Mission Utah and Hidden Valley Presbyterian Church to be a church planting apprentice under Rev. Lee Mashburn in Draper, UT (a suburb of Salt Lake City). I just graduated from Beeson Divinity School yesterday, and will be hopefully ordained this coming fall out in Utah. Kelly and I are very excited to go to this home mission field that has approximately an 86% Mormon population and only 5-10% in evangelical churches. Our plan is to move to Utah this September (after baby number 4 comes in August!). I will do a church planting apprenticeship for 1-2 years, funneling into a church plant in the surrounding neighborhoods, Lord willing. People ask me how we are possibly going to lead Mormons to Christ?? But isn't it true that conversion is a miracle, wherever you are?

...Wake up, O Sleeper, Rise from the dead, Christ will shine on you Eph. 5:14.

The Ressurection-Power of Jesus is their only hope...mine too.

More pictures....FINALLY!

well, once again, it took me months to put more pictures on here. for those of you that actually check this blog, it must be very disappointing to not get new pictures but twice a year! :) i'd like to say i'll try harder or i'll start devoting all my free time to blogging, but in reality (which is where i seem to find myself most often) it'll probably be another 6 months before you see any more!

miriam "mia" rebekah mcnutt

well, she's here...and she's early! our third child was born november 20, 2008, at 4:52 pm, weighing in at 5 lbs 15 oz and 18 inches long. we are all doing well, and moses and makenna are loving having a new sister to hold and kiss! hope you enjoy the pictures of our little mia. i also am including fall pictures of moses and makenna and random pictures of both of them from the past 4 months.

world's worst blogger

so, now it is august and i am finally posting new pictures for you to see. here are the links to moses and makenna's birthday pictures. i will try to post some from kristy's wedding soon, but of course that could mean november or december!

it's may?!? where did april go?!?

so, it's true. i don't seem to have enough time to blog. part of the problem could be that we don't even have a computer at our house, let alone the internet, so i can only blog at my parents house when both the kids are sleeping. well, i think it's only going to get harder because, yes, we are going to have baby number 3 (sometime in december)! we are trying to teach moses that there is a baby in mommy's tummy, but i don't think he really gets it yet. cravings have started. today for lunch all i wanted was a peach, banana, and grapefruit. i settled for grapefruit and a sandwich because i thought it might be a little over the top to eat all 3 fruits (only) at one sitting! :) so, in case you didn't figure it out, my cravings are for fruit! we'll see if it lasts! i guess that's better than chocolate!

pictures at long last!

so, some of you are not very patient people. i know my kids are adorable and you just can't wait to see new pictures, so i'm finally putting some new ones up for you. besides, i was starting to feel threatened! :) hope you enjoy...there are a bunch!
