time to be the body!

So these past few days have been very very interesting! I left school on Thursday to go to KY for a trip and as im driving home on saturday stopped to see some friends and got a call didnt know the number but thats normal i figured it was a kid from the youth center and sure enough it was kell..."christina my mom wanted to see if we could spend the night at your house?" huh oh... i didnt know why but i had my mom call there and see what was going on and sure enough they were homeless again so my mom went over to get the 3 oldest kids didnt really have any intention of getting them but was handed a arm full of cloths and the medical card and told that she couldnt take care of them for a week! my heart dropped when my mom told me this!! so she went to church with the kids and got them some food... my mom was very upset and kell went into the sanctuary and saw his sunday school teachers and they offered to help and take the 2 boys. and ana is staying with us. This whole experience is teaching me so much about patience and the Love of Gods people. their teachers didnt need to take them in to their house with their kids and take care of 2 boys that are not always the easiest to deal with. Now the boys are saying we want to go home. because they have a safe warm and loving place to go home to where they are loved unconditionally no matter what their family has 2 older boys 16 and 12 who are amazing with them and have made them feel so welcome and they have positive role models to look up to! when i saw them walk out to the car for school today with their lunch sacs and a huge smile on their face so proud that someone made them a lunch i couldnt help but smile! thank you God for those people taking care of them like their own! please be praying for their mother and 6 month old brother for safety and for continued patience for those taking care of the other kids and for the kids to be calm and continue to act well for us! thanks for your prayers everyone! its during this time that we cannot forsake the body of christ!
