Finally Here!!!!

We finally made it!!! It seemed as if we were never going to be able to get on the road and to the Gulf. Our plan was to leave Monday, June 1st, but the enemy threw up many obstacles to slow us down. In the last two weeks before heading out to the Gulf a list of events occurred that were not only emotional and tiring, but were obvious attempts by the enemy to slow us down. It all started when a lady that was living with us attempted suicide, then Bradley got a spider bite that made his ankle swell and produce hives all over. Barry and Brodie then spent a full night in the ER because Brodie split open his forehead by running into the corner of a wall. Five stitches later, an ambulance ride and one ct scan later we were able to leave at 4:30 in the morning. Got to church Sunday morning and Brock had an acute asthma attach and we had to leave church to give him a breathing treatment. Barry then had to work non stop in the rain to finish a deck he had promised to build for someone. Wednesday night Barry's truck was hit and it is now not drivable and probably totalled. Thursday night Barry was attempting to help someone down the street with a broken down car at 1:00 in the morning and was held at gun point by a man for 5-10 minutes, frisked by 7 Montgomery PD Officers, and then had to convince the police officers that he was trying to help the man with the broken down car and not breaking into cars (we will expound on that story more some other time :). So to say the least, we had an extremely eventful two weeks which slowed our progress some but did not deter us from answering God's call for us to come to the beach to minister. Some people would see this as God closing doors, but we see it as the enemy trying to stop us. The doors were still wide open, the money was there, we had a church to get things started with and several contacts from there, and we still had that peace that passes all understanding! So, we saw God all in this mission still and that He obviously had something big for us because the enemy sure did not want us here....but God is good and faithful!!! Having trouble getting pics posted and finding areas with WIFI to hook up to.
