Pray for London

Crazy to think that we have only been here in London two weeks today. In those two extremely quick weeks, the Lord opened for us a flat in West London in the borough of Kensington&Chelsea. Nothing short of a miracle… we spent our first week here scouring the entire North/NorthWest/West area of London for a flat that was inexpensive and we thought would fit our needs. We had found a flat that was for us nothing more then settling, and were ready to make an offer on(you make offers on flats to rent, kinda weird), when a last minute flat opened up for us to look at in a hood we had loved and were praying about. I spare the financial details, but the amazing part is that we offered what we had budgeted and could afford(which was ridiculously under the asking rate), went home that night and prayed that God would stir in the heart of the building owner. I get a call the next morning from the rental agent telling me that another couple had seen the flat and offered the asking price, a much higher offer, but to the surprise of his whole office, our offer was the offer accepted. My focus for this last week has been to settle our family, as uneventful and unexciting as assembling furniture is. I forget sometimes that though adjusting for me might be not very difficult, I just moved a wife and 3 year old as well. Through this, I believe that God is laying a foundation in my life and reestablishing my first ministry, mi familia. It has been truly a joy. So, we are moved in, set up and yesterday started to meet our new neighbors, some extremely nice, others ehhh…

Michelle is do to have our baby in literally a week! we have been called crazy here more times than we can count... but it gives us opportunity to share with people of what importance are we here for. So, if you would please pray for her…

We have a few things left to do such as get Trent signed up for public school. This boy is going to be on mission, and is very ready to meet some new friends.

We are blessed by everyone praying for us and all the support. We are continuing to pray for and familiarize ourselves with our hood and allowing the Lord to lead us in His plan, as part of His church here in London as we seek Him. Much Love! God Bless, Christian
