We want to let you all know BIG news in our lives! We accepted a ministry position today! After a long search, we really feel like God led us to the right place. He tested our patience and trust, but He was overseeing the process the entire time.
The church we will be part of is called Beavercreek Baptist Church. I (Marc) will be the Minister of Children and Youth, with a primary emphasis on the youth for the time being. Beavercreek is a suburb of Dayton, OH (about two hours east of Indianapolis for those who might be wondering). It's an SBC church that is growing with a great group of people. We met a lot of them this weekend, and we can assure you that they are a wonderful body of believers that will appreciate and care for us. The church has been through a lot over the past several years and they really desire a new staff person who will care for them and lead their young people over the long haul. That's exactly what we want to do.
My first day of work will be June 1st. So we will be moving from New Albany the last weekend of May (which just so happens to be when our lease is up!). Thank you all SO much for your prayers. They were felt. God really gave us a peace--especially over the course of this weekend--that this is where He wants us to be. He must have given the church that same impression, because the vote was unanimous--which is fairly uncommon!
So big changes are on the way for us, but exciting changes! Please keep us in your prayers as you think of us! And let us know how we can pray for you too. We love all of you and are very grateful for your involvement in our lives!
