A Week of Transition

     Where do I even begin to start? Last Monday and Tuesday was the Ladies Cadre. I met some wonderful pastors wives and youth pastors who had such a heart for their kids, and a heart after God. Every cadre I'm a part of, I love the experience even more. I can't wait for the next one!


     On Wednesday we were back at the church for classes and oxygen that night. It was one of the most incredible worship experiences in my life, God was so there and I'm sure everyone felt it. He delights in the praises of his people, that's for sure!


     I'm sure some of you are wondering about my missions trip with Operation Blessing coming up in April. I have to raise $300 US to cover my travel, food, and lodging expenses, and I am doing well so far. I have approximately $170 in... just $130 to go! I would like to ask you if you would partner with me and be one of my sponsors on this exciting mission. There are two ways in which I am seeking partnership, prayerfully and financially. Every little but helps, so it doesn’t matter how big or small. Also, please pray for me and our group, as well as for the hearts of the people with whom we will come in contact. Thank you in advance for your time and prayers. It means so much to me and those we will be ministering to. God is going to do great things, and I am going with a heart of expectancy! To send finances, you can send them to either me at our church address, or if you prefer, to my parents. They will make sure to get it to me! Here are the addresses:


Annie Morton
The Tabernacle Church
1580 Agape Way
Decatur (Atlanta) GA 30035


or


Annie Morton
100 Riverview Crescent

     On Friday, we had family time, and learned the sad news that our brother, Caleb, would be leaving Master's and heading back to Texas. Due to some serious health issues with his family, he needed to go home and take care of them. It was hard news to swallow, and I didn't realize how close our family was until this happened. We sent him off later that day, and although I have no idea why this would happen to him, I'm trusting that God knows. He works all things together for good, and I know that this is no exception. Caleb, you will be missed. We will see you at graduation!


     Saturday was our day off, so my sister and I went shopping. It was good to get out and have some fun in light of the previous days events. On Sunday we were at the church all day, then we went to Christina's apartment for family time with the staff. We talked about Caleb leaving, played Balderdash, and just had fun. It was a great way to just relax, and our family needed it!


     Coming up soon is experience, a fundraiser in Daytona, spring retreat, and cadres are coming every few weeks as well. It sure isn't going to get any less busy around here, but I love it!
