Faith Family Fellowship

Don and I are now meeting regularly on Sundays with the McIntosh family near Defiance, Ohio.  We have named our church "Faith Family Fellowship".  Don has permission from Grabill Cabinets to go part time as soon as we move, and we also would like to remodel homes for resale.  We have a home picked out to live in, but someone has made an offer ahead of us.  I just heard today that the financing is looking shaky for the potential buyer, and we may get another chance at it.  That would be wonderful as we have exhausted all the options within the area, price range and size that we need...and we've looked at less than 10 homes.  We need prayer that the buyers of our house will complete their financing soon so we can make a good offer!
We went caroling with the McIntoshes the other night.  It was a joy to sing with this other musical family!  We sang to a neighbor lady who does not know the Lord.  She wept, and said we had made her Christmas! We plan to stay in touch with her and her husband and be faithful to their souls.  We also sang at a couple senior citizens centers and another neighborhood home with its own set of needs.  Six precious daughters in this family.   It truly is an adventure to be starting a church there.  Don and I did not think we would ever do such a thing.  I will say it is a privilege to have the gifted and spiritually sensitive McIntosh family on our team.  -Karin
