Prayer Request from the Andersons

Hi guys!
Jon and I have asked you before to pray for our decision regarding his next duty station/staying in or getting out of the Army. Well, we have some specific options that we can give you guys now if you would be so sweet to continue to pray about that for us. We will be making this decision by the end of the week. Here are the options we've narrowed it down to:

1. Ranger Regiment Company Command
2. Congressional Fellowship/Masters Degree Program in D.C.
3. Return to "normal Army" at Fort Benning (close to our home...also this one would lead to a good opportunity to get out in a year or so).

Obviously, our considerations in all of these will be family time, ministry opportunities in each unit, proximity to home, etc.

We want you all to know how grateful we are for all of you and for being able to bring this request to you, knowing that you will faithfully lift it to our Father for us. Our prayer is that He will make His will clear to us - abundantly so that we won't mess it up!! :) He has graciously done this for us with our decisions thus far in the Army, closing doors He didn't intend for us to go through.

Thank you so much, and we'll let you know what we decide Sunday!
Mandy and Jon

It's A BOY!!!

Sam got his wish! We are having another boy! He is very healthy, 100% boy, and extremely active. Thanks so much for your prayers, and we are so thankful for such great friends!

Love,

John, Morgan, and Sam

Prayer Request

Staci Hood emailed me a prayer request to send to everyone since they were not in town this morning. Please be in prayer for Jason's grandmother. She was put in the hospital yesterday for congestive heart failure. She has had heart problems for years & is currently on oxygen & has had a pacemaker for years. The Hoods are going to to visit today and tomorrow and have asked us to pray for her, her name is Wilma Anderson.

Please also remember all the requests made in ABF this morning and lift up your brothers and sisters this week in prayer. Hogan Dominy's blog is hogandominy.blogspot.com if you were interested in reading that. We'll be looking for updates tomorrow from the Ransoms and the Cardens.
