When Life Shows Up

I walked beside my brother (Gideon) down the aisle as everyone starred on. It was his wedding day. I was his best-(wo)man. It was a beautiful day full of laughs and beauty, but it was only the beginning of new things to come for the Bishop family. 
One month later came little Zoie Marie into the family, brother Caleb and wife Jessica's first baby. She has been a wonderful joy! But that's not all!!! 
After traveling more than 36 hours, sister Rochelle and one and half year old Dylan finally landed in Portland from Uganda Africa, greeted by family. 

While our family is busy growing and changing, I am continuing to see what God has for me. As I am here in Oregon, I know I am first to serve my family as best as I can. I am also serving with my Pastor's ministry, helping in the office with various projects. 
My plan is to head to Guatemala next spring for a couple months of language learning. 
God is so good! Let's praise The Lord for our families, let's remember to thank him everyday for His goodness and faithfulness. 

Amen!
