It has been a crazy week.... We feel like we were just getting into a routine, and now with the end of the semester everything has changed again.  Such is life:)

-The semester ended really well, we feel like we have made some important connections with students in the 6 short weeks we have been here.

-We had a great end of the semester social at our house last week. We are so thankful to be able to open up our home to students!

-Summer Bible Study starts this coming Thursday at our house :)

-One of my best friends, Colleen, came to visit this past week.  To say we had a great time is an understatement!

-Our landlord decided to put a half bath in the basement (we are really grateful for this!!).  The plumber that came to start working on it last week was a very friendly christian guy.  He found out about our  ministry with the Navs and decided to install a new shower head in our current shower for free (to replace one from the 70's). He and his wife ended up having us over for dinner on Saturday!!

-When we moved, we realized the a/c in our "new car" didn't work.  This is really frustrating as a/c is the  reason we traded in our  car to begin with (I guess test driving a car in Eau Claire when it is 28* doesn't tell you whether or not the a/c works!) We finally took the car in this week to get the a/c recharged. Unfortunately there is more damage.... Long story short.... a few weeks ago we drove over the curb when getting out of our driveway....it turns out this minor accident caused a lot of damage that needs to be fixed before the a/c can be fixed.  We know that expensive car repairs are just a part of life, but this is the first time we have had to experience them.

-Noah has been saving up for quite some time now and was finally able to buy a guitar this weekend! He is thrilled to start learning how to play and hopefully be able to play for Navs in the near future...

-Tomorrow is the day-- we are trading in our WI plates and drivers licenses for IL ones... oh boy!

   Amidst all that is going on and all we are trusting the Lord for, I found great comfort this morning in Isaiah 42 and 43

(42:6) I will take hold of your hand
(42:16) I will lead the blind by ways they have not known.
(43:1) I have summoned you by name, you are mine.
(43:2) When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, when you pass through the rivers they will not sweep over you, when you walk through the fire you will not be burned.
(43:4) Since you are precious and honored in my sight and because I love you, I will give men in exchange for you. (Isn't that awesome??!!)
(43:5) Do not be afraid for I am with you.

We love you all... Thanks for caring about our lives and ministry!!
