For starters, we have another baby! Just two weeks ago, on January 8th, sweet Penny Lou Hyman was born! She is healthy as can be, and is the sweetest little thing. Abby Kate is beyond obsessed with her, while Ellie still isn't quite sure what to think. Abby loves to fulfill her role as big sister by helping us out with Penny. Her favorite task is picking out Penny's outfits! She has quite the flair for fashion. :)
We just spend most of our time keeping up with our three wild things. They keep us busy, that's for sure! We have adjusted to life as a family of five quite well, and are thankful that the transition wasn't as difficult as we thought it'd be. We are, however, ready to get back out on the road! We had to slow down on deputation because we switched agencies, and now that all of that is done with, we can get back to making appointments and meeting with churches.
We have our first mission conference of 2015 in just a couple of weeks! We are so excited to be at Northside Baptist Church with Bro. Mark Dallalio and the church family there. They have already blown us away with emails and inquiries of special needs or requests our family might have. They have been so welcoming and have really blessed our family... and we aren't even scheduled to be there for another two weeks!
Please be praying for our family in several different areas:
We are in need of a laptop for deputation as our macbook bit the dust.
Safety while we travel all over Texas and to some other parts in the US.
Be in prayer that our kiddos will do well on the road, or that everyone will do well when John goes out to appointments alone and Kristina stays home with the kids.
Kristina needs quite a bit of dental work to have her impacted wisdom teeth removed. The way they've grown in has caused nerve damage to two other teeth so she has to have a root canal and a tooth extraction. As you can imagine, this is daunting to her as a stay at home mom to three little ones, and is also a large financial obligation.
We trust and know that the Lord will provide, and sincerely appreciate those of you who pray for us. This is such a unique journey to be on, especially with three little girls, and we are looking forward to making memories and meeting new friends.
In Christ,
The Hyman Family
