At the beginning of next month, my family will be moving across country to start a new life and ministry in Indianapolis. Please pray for the church we will be leaving here in Oregon that God will use our absence to grow them, for our move (its not easy to move 4 little kids, 2 dogs and 2 guinea pigs ;P), and safety as we trek across the country.
Thank you!

Blessings on your new endeavor, morwena! I can imagine it is both an exciting and trying time. (Having done 2 cross country moves with small children and a cat, I understand your need for prayers!) May the Lord sustain you as you go through all the details of packing up your life and tying up the loose ends in Oregon, and may he help you settle quickly in Indianapolis.
Keep us updated!

I was a PK and we moved about every four years, sometimes more. The prayer below stems from our family's experiences -- both good and bad.
I pray that the LORD will give you travel and moving mercies (Shalom - "Nothing missing, nothing damaged) and that he will give you and your family and animals immunity from the new bacteria and virus strains in your new community.
I pray that your new congregation will welcome you warmly and that the LORD will give you wisdom in discerning those who will be your true friends and ministry partners and that He will protect you from those who mean you harm.
I pray that the trip will not be burdensome and that there will be moments of joy for all.

Praying for you and your family, morwena.
Moving is never easy. My family racked up about 30 in a 15 year period (parents were in their property manager phase of life), ranging from Missouri to California more than once and points between in Colorado and Nebraska. It's one thing to go sightseeing; but doing it with the proverbial lock, stock, and barrel is a challenge. (Just file another notch on the moving van!)
Anyway, praying that the move itself is uneventful for you and that God smooths your way as you and your family (and critters, too) get settled in your new home.

God bless you, Morwena. I know how hard it can be to uproots and go where He wills. Although, I've never done it with kids, dogs, and guinea pigs...

Been there, done that...a few times. My heart and prayers are with you, as I know you'll need as much as you can get. Keep us updated as you are able!
