ChristmasGift Extrordinaire 2009

The biggest, best and most beautiful gift the Fleming Family received for Christmas this year is: Daniel (our newest grandson).


God was gracious and arranged (and provided) for John and Kim to go to Haiti just prior to Christmas to bring Daniel home. What rejoicing is going on among us!! Art and I can hardly wait to see the little guy, to hold him, play with him, and get to know him.

Soon to leave our present dwelling


Here are a couple pictures of the home we have been "sitting" since mid-October.

Thank you for praying for our housing situation. The first week of January we will need to be out of this home so that it's ready for the return of the people who "really live here." God has already opened up the next door for us. This time, however, there are no open spots on the YWAM base, so we will be "house-sitting" for some local snowbirds. The home is "fully loaded" so we, again, will take very little with us. Even some of the personal things we have here will need to be put back in storage (my recliner, extra bedding, vacuum cleaner, etc.).

Please pray for us--this constant moving from house to house is beginning to wear a bit thin. We are asking God to provide us with a "place of our own." As yet we do not see how that would work out....but we trust our Father's gracious provision. He is good, ALL the time.

Miracles Galore

We got to do something we truly love last week.....visit some grandkids. We made a quick trip over to Great Falls, Montana for Thanksgiving. What fun to play with EMILY and NOAH, and to see how big Christel's tummy is getting with the little one who is due mid-January. What a joy to see the family growing! What a blessing to see them living in a house full of and love and learning the good news of God's message.



When you pray....expect miracles! The Montana YWAM base suffers from a housing shortage (there are more people on staff than the base can house). Well, on Nov. 5th God deposited 12 apartments onto the property. Someone donated a hotel. Sometimes God answers prayer in a really BIG way, and this is one of those times--a God Story, I guess you could call it. See the clip below.





Another HUGE miracle happened this week. This time within the Fleming family. John and Kim received word that the little boy they are adopting from Haiti (Daniel) was cleared to come home to them. They were told to come for him within a week. So they fly out this next Tuesday morning. WOW!!! The family has been praying along with John and Kim for this past year, asking God to release Daniel. Isn't the timing beautiful? I think God wants this little guy HOME for Christmas! There will be more coming on this story....SOON....as soon as the kids get home from Haiti. Please keep them in your prayers.
