Weekly Update: 09/09/2013

Friends!

Thank you for your love and encouragement!

Our family had another busy week, but we survived and made it through.  Brie is looking forward to feeling better and having more energy in the coming weeks as she comes of out her first trimester.  We have a baby doctors appointment this Friday to see how Baby Morrell is doing.  Please continue to pray for mama and baby.

Ali is really coming into her own these past few weeks and has become a real cuddle bug.  The cuddling has been a pleasant surprise because in the past she had not been too much into cuddling.  On Saturday and Sunday rather than playing, drawing, or helping mommy cook (one of her favorite things to do on the weekend), she preferred to cuddle on the couch with daddy, mommy, and occasionally Russ.

This week at OMS, we have lots of people looking into serving overseas.  One couple is coming to visit later this week as they seek to explore how they can be disciplers and church planters overseas with OMS.  Please pray for this couple and for more couples like this to come along. Currently are two biggest needs to be filled are Church Multiplication Facilitators in Ukraine and Ireland.  Here is a link to the job description. Perhaps you know someone who might be interested.

At church this week, we talked about having a child like faith and how we must never become a stumbling block to others' advance toward Jesus.  Often times people refer to children as "innocent," but rather it could be better said that they exhibit helpless dependence.  We all come to him the same way, with a child-like helplessness.

God Bless!

The Morrell Family

She was so excited about her new sunglasses she picked out herself.
