Destination: Kentucky, one anothering, etc.

First off, I would like to say "I'm sorry" for not writing recently. Life has been pretty busy lately. We have been working on something that I think is going to take off very quickly. If you are interested in the "one another" teachings of the Bible and looking for a challenge, I think you will enjoy this experiment I have begun. You can see a recent post at http://oneanother-ing.blogspot.com/2009/08/washing-one-anothers-feet.html that may give you a good idea of what we are talking about. I have been rather engulfed in writing, visiting, study, prayer, and a host of other things that have prevented me from getting the sleep I need.
For those that didn't hear yet, surgery went well, I am almost all healed up, and the tumor was benign. NO cancer or anything else that we were worried about. We have all kinds of news, so I will try to be brief and just bullet point it from here.
  • This fall, we are headed to Kentucky. Bluegrass Bible Fellowship in Richmond, KY has invited us for the fall.
  • We will leave Maine September 8, Lord willing. Maine, Ohio, Kentucky
  • Sara is 13 weeks along, everything is fine. We heard the heartbeat the other day at the midwife office.
  • Virginia's dental "procedure" went well, she is all healed and back to her normal routine.
  • Naomi is enjoying time helping Gramma do things outside and is getting awfully tall.
  • Nathaniel spent his lawn mowing money to buy an electronic Bible(had to buy the ipod touch to get it) and is enjoying learning Bible study techniques with Daddy.
  • Mark is reading Living Water and Heavenly Man again, also started Howard Hendricks" Living by the book"
  • One Anothering is taking off at http://oneanother-ing.blogspot.com and wants more participants.
  • Meals with many families, fellowship with friends, and impromptu Bible studies galore.
through the love of Christ,
Mark and Sara Cowperthwaite
