Well, it has been a year since we have updated our page and it's about time we did just that. So much can happen in a year and so much has. Let's start back in November of '07. We had planned on moving back to the mid-west area and we became aware of a church in need of a pastor in Greeley, IA. We visited a couple times and decided that this looked like a great opportunity to start a new ministry.
We practically had both feet in before it was brought to our attention that maybe this was not the right decision. I (Mandie) had felt quite uneasy about things, but couldn't exactly pinpoint why and didn't see the reasons of hesitancy as being enough to not move. Both Brannon and I, after meeting with some very close and loving friends, decided that Greeley, IA was not where God wanted us. There are many things that we both need to work on individually as well as together. You could be praying for us about that as we seek to grow and mature. We have decided to stay in Brighton, CO for another year and continue to be in ministry at Living Stones Community Church. We do not know where God will take us come July of 2009, but in the meantime, we are excited to see what will happen in our marriage and in our family.
Please keep us in your prayers.

Dustin and I are glad that God has lead you away from Iowa (or, showed you that He didn't want you to go there). We pray that this season would be an enlightening one for your marriage and family!!
And, we'd love it if you'd reconsider the Cincinnati area . . . :-)
yeah, your blogging again! you will have two faithful readers in Socal.
