It is Christmas afternoon, the girls went to buy movie tickets, Lydia and Josiah are playing with their new toys and the house is quiet. We have much to be thankful for this year; Tom's job, our children, family and friends, health, a warm house, plenty of food, being able to buy presents for our children... God is so good to us. He has blessed us so much and we never want to take His blessings for granted.
Life is not easy and none of us are going to avoid trials, its part of being on the planet. Trails are not fun, but the Lord uses them to refine us. Currently, we feel as if we are in the fire, as we wait for resolution regarding us and Cornerstone. We ask, "Why?" and "when will it be finished?" We continually need to reflect on God's goodness to us and remember how He has covered us in the past. How's His record of goodness to us? Perfect. Please pray that we would remember this and that we would trust His timing and His control over every detail of our lives.
Tom is doing all he can to resolve this issue, but there are other people involved and we must trust the Lord to move the hearts of men, so we can move forward. We are in the first stages of an agreement but it all needs to be put in writing. We are praying this can all be resolved by mid-January.
Our prayer is to get moving on support raising soon and we pray the Lord would move mightily to get us to Uganda. Our hearts long to be where the Lord is calling us, serving the children of Uganda. He is our Deliverer and we pray He would not delay.
Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year!
In Christ Alone,

Thank you, Jesus! Blessed Beyond Measure!

Tom and I are blessed beyond measure! When I am weary and tired, my silly children make me smile and help me to not take life to seriously.
Bumps in the Road Hurt!!
We hit a bump in the road as we pursue getting to Uganda. The building company Tom worked for, that went out of business about this time last year, has become a source of pain for the Webers. There are some legal issues we need to deal with before we can move forward on Uganda. Because Tom was the financial officer of the company, we are being included in the legal matters. Please pray the conflict would be resolved by January and we would be able to move forward on support raising. We know Jesus' timing is perfect and he is in control of all of this. We wait expectantly to see what He will do.
