I have really wanted to be more consistent on my own private blog. I started this blog eight years or so ago, delved back in with a couple of posts about four years ago, and it has lain dormant since.
More than I can recount has happened since then May 2009. Hudson was born prematurely about a month after that last post. Since then Beth and Ronnie had Kian in October 2010, Jay and Holly had Wil in June 2012, and Caleb and Karen got married in December 2011 and gave us Alfie two weeks ago today.
We almost lost Michelle in December 2009 when she came down with leukaemia and she batted that till June 2011 when she had a stem cell transplant which seems to have taken care of it.
Beth, Ronnie, Kian, and Zeke are all back in the US now. Caleb, Jay, Mary, and I have become Irish citizens. And all the normal passing of years have gone by.
Our church plant still struggles along. We constituted as a church in the summer of 2011 and we have a small but faithful group of believers.
I wanted to drop a post today as a reminder to myself. I was really discouraged this week about things in general, but especially about church attendance. For several days I have been praying for a good day today and The Lord answered. He didn't answer in a big and dramatic way, but in a way that both He and I knew what He had done. We then had a good Bible study tonight.
Anyway, we are going to give this thing another shot. Lets see how it goes.
