RICHIE GOT A JOB!

We would like to thank everyone for their fasting and prayers on our behalf. On Thursday Richie officially became the new Project Manager for Aspire Design. He starts tomorrow and we are so excited! This year has been a huge struggle, but so many blessings have come because of it. We have had more blessings than sorrows during this time, and now we are going to have so much more. I feel like shouting from the roof tops. I want everyone who reads this to know that I know that Heavenly Father answers prayers and that his Son lives. My testimony has grown so much in the last year and I know that the Lord doesn't present you with any challenge that you can't handle. I also know that he will make your weaknesses become strengths and that if you place your yolk upon him he wil help you. He loves every one of us and wants us to come to Him for help. He is waiting at the door and knocking. We just have to open it.
