Big Change Coming

Well, for those few that haven't heard, things are changing. On June 14, 2009, Centerville Baptist Church in Chesapeake, Virginia extended a call for me to become their pastor. I accepted that call. My last Sunday at Hamilton will be July 12. We are then going to a family reunion over the weekend of July 19 and the movers are coming July 21. This is all exciting and scary! Please pray for us.
Our parents are having a "Going away" party on Saturday, July 11, at our home in Hamilton. Everyone is invited. Games start at 5:00 PM (Cherokee marbles, basketball, washers, etc.), we will eat at about 6:30 PM and entertainment starts at about 7:30 PM. Come ready to write or tell us some of your memories with us. RSVP to my email.
You can check out Centerville at http://www.centervillebaptistchurch.org .
We are sad to leave so many folks that have touched our lives during our ministry in Hamilton. It is the only place my girls know as home. As one lady said today, "They will always be Hamiltonians!" There will always be part of us here.
We are also sad to leave our families. It has been a real blessing to live just about 45 miles from each set of our parents. Our children have been blessed to be so close to their grandparents. This change will be very hard.
We know that God would not be leading in this call if He did not have something awesome in store for this family and for Centerville and for Hamilton and for our families. It is going to be a great adventure finding out!
God be with you on the Journey!
Kevin
