Our forgetfulness…God’s faithfulness

Ellis Family

What would you do if you left the suitcase packed with all your children’s clothes at home?  Well, we didn’t quite leave it at home. We had some help not bringing it with us to Cincinnati.

We had some student friends living with us last week while they were packing all their belongings and cleaning their apartment. On Saturday morning we were both getting ready to leave and had suitcases all over the first floor of our house. In the hurried pace of the morning they ended up taking our kids suitcase with them to Missouri!

Neither of us realized this of course until we arrived at our destination.  The cool thing was to see how God provided for us. The family we were with happened to bring with them some clothes they wanted to give our girls, so it all worked out.  God was faithful to provide three bathing suits, pajamas for each and outfits for Leighanna and Emily.

We are thankful for the Ellis family, the ones that stayed with us. We spent two years getting to know them, challenging and training them to be missionaries.  Now to see them continue on in the training with NTM to be a part of reaching tribal people with the Gospel, our hearts are aching to see them go, but are excited about what lies ahead for them.
