Long Overdue Update

We know it's been forever!!!! We apologize for not updating sooner. We have misplaced our camera cord, so unfortunately we have no pictures :( Sad we know! Well, let us catch you up with our lives...

Since we moved here in June, Corey has been able to work for Amy's Uncle as part of his Maintenance Crew where we are living in Lakeside Mobile Park. Praise the Lord we've had an income. Unfortunately it is not a full-time position, his hours vary from 20-40 hours. Amy has been unable to find any jobs in the Ellijay area at this time. Unfortunately there are a ton of businesses that are not hiring due to the economy at this time.

As far as a church position for Corey, we are currently speaking with a few churches and many others have his resume. We are still praying and seeking where God will have us be.

Currently, we are attending First Baptist Church of Ellijay, GA. We have truly enjoyed worshiping there during this transition time. Amy is singing in the Adult Choir on Sunday Mornings. She is also a part of the Praise Team. The Praise Team leads in worship on a rotating basis on Sunday mornings. We both have begun to assist the Minister of Worship with the Student Arts Department. They meet on Sunday nights from 5-7pm. Corey leads them in a 20 minute devotion time, they are currently learning how to share the Gospel with people. Amy also is a part of this time and leads the Interpretive Arts for grades 7-12.

We are loving the opportunity to be close to family as well! What a blessing during this transitional time in our lives. We appreciate all the love and support we have received thus far. Feel free to drop us a line!!!

I think you guys hold the record for the longest time between posts. For a while there, we thought we would retain the trophy.
We are praying for you both and that God would guide you in the next phase of your lives. We miss you both.
