Wrapping up 2011

We had an eventful last week of the year!  
   
Our house in Fullerton finally closed escrow on December 22, 2011!  Praise the Lord!!!  (We had been trying to sell it since 2008, and it was supposed to close on June 27, 2011.)  We are so thankful for this blessing!  The first week of January we met with our tax guy and he determined that we don't have any capital gains issues (with escrow going six months longer than planned, we thought there might be).  Praise the Lord some more!!!  You can imagine the load that was lifted from us with this news!  


Kelly preached on Christmas Day for a combined service here in Bishop.  Bishop Creek Community Church joined with First Presbyterian in Bishop and Calvary Baptist.  The other pastors asked Kelly to preach.  He did a great job!  Check it out... http://bishopcreek.org/resources/sermon-study-podcasts/?sermon_id=191.  (You can actually check out all of Kelly's sermons and the articles he writes for the local paper on our church website... www.BishopCreek.org.)  


We finished off the year by going up to Cardinal Village Resort where the Cluffs were hosting their New Year's Eve Party (celebrated with New York at 9pm California time).  A great time was had by all!  We had a lot of friends from Bishop Creek Community Church there, and a lot of other friends too!  It was also nice to make some new ones!  Ken & ShaleAnn are such good hosts!  We are blessed!


Thank you for your continued prayers for us as we minister to our church and to the community of Bishop!  We are excited to see what the Lord is going to do in 2012!  


Keep pressing in to our Lord and to His Word!
