Hello Friends,
Well last week was mostly assisting in the Piney Point ministry and the ministries of the sister churches. Justin was put to work this week: painting, weed eating, etc...
Bobbi Ann has been focused on homeschooling, packing and moving our family around...we have been blessed to stay with some great friends this week in Northwest Arkansas. Also, I believe I am nesting! :)
Kevin has been busy, well, being Kevin. He has been completing homeschool and enjoying being a kid.
We have been able to enjoy a little of the outdoors as a family!! Today Justin and I decided on prefolds for our cloth diapers...Not only were they the most cost friendly, they also seemed just simple enough and perfect! We are getting very excited!
We love you all - hope to share some more next week; maybe we will have more to share! :)
God Bless you all!!
Justin, Bobbi Ann, Kevin and Annika

Hello and I begin with an apology for waiting until tuesday to get this blog out.
We once again thank each of you for your support and for following us on this blog! We were previously gone on our last big trip (maybe ;) before we head back to Haiti (which we are hoping will be in Feb.). We had the privelage of staying with our great friends and brother and sister in Christ in Texas while giving our presentation at two churches. Both pastors and their congregations were welcoming. The Lord blessed this trip by also allowing me to visit with our sisters at Calvary Baptist for their women's retreat. Fellowship was wonderful in Surfside with the women and the sermon we were able to hear Sunday morning really blessed us!
So for the last week we spent our time in Texas visiting 2 churches and a conference. I also was blessed just last night with a few beautiful flowers from my husband. Today Justin was blessed to be able to help the Piney Point Ministry. We also were able to take a field trip yesterday to Pea Ridge military park and it is always interesting to see what different things Kevin picks up on anytime we get to visit there.
The forthcoming weeks look mostly like being involved in the Piney Point and sister chcurches area. Of course there are a few churches in the NWA area we will be visiting and I will keep everyone posted, and we are trying to visit others that we either need to contact or get back in touch with.
God Bless you all!
Justin, Bobbi Ann, Kevin and Annika

Great Monday!
Hello all! Well, we spent most of our time this week at the Revival in Pea Ridge and were blessed to rejoice with recieving new brothers and sisters into the family of the Lord this week (a total of 18 souls)!
During the day times this last week; Kevin and I struggled with homeschooling and my prayer is that he realizes there is no way that school should have to last all day and that this week will be better. We did end the week by having lunch together out of the house and away from everything, just the two of us. It was a great experience. Kevin prayed for our waitress and we also invited her to revival. Justin drove to bring back a friend they made while alligator hunting in Louisianna :)...then spent most of his days helping prepare for the revival.
Tomorrow we leave for Texas. On Wednesday night and Sunday morning we have a presentation at different churches. Thursday through Saturday I will have the privelage of joining Sherry Ketring and some others from our churches in Galveston for a women's retreat with our sisters from Calvary Baptist in Hunstville, TX :) (I am very excited).
The following week we will be blessed again to stay with some of our friends and a brother and sister in Christ here in Rogers! The Lord has blessed us with brothers and sisters who open their homes to us and we are very greatful. We are also continually greatful for the prayers and support of each of you who follow us to know where the Lord has us!
*p.s. the nesting process has begun as I prepare for our return to Haiti as well as the arrival of Annika (it is a little different when you don't have a permanent residency and there is much paper work involved in going overseas!
God Bless you all!
The White Family - soon to return to Haiti and working for the Lord where we are each day!

Hello Everyone!
Well i thought sunday would be the official blog update day, however i am thinking i need to officially change that to Mondays since we are always so busy on Sundays that it never gets done!
Well in the last week we homeschooled, had a doctors appointment for Annika and got to visit 1st Baptist Church Bentonville. Thos were our sort of hightlights of the week.
Annika is 26 weeks old and we will now officially see the doctor every 2 weeks. Kevin is doing just fine with homeschooling and an occasional hands on day is in order, otherwise he very much just likes to read the work and answer the questions and be finished :)...he is very smart, so as long as he is learning we will work with what works best with him and what he enjoys most.
We had a wonderful visit last night with the 1st Baptist church of Bentonville. They had a great worship lead by the youth choir and then we were also blessed to share our presentation with them.
Our sister, JoJo, got married on Saturday :) and made a most beautiful bride. Her uniting family now makes for 17 stockings at Christmas! We are blessed with a wonderful family!
This next week looks like more phone calls to try to get into churches. There will be some follow up on my end as well as printing newsletters from last month for some of our supporters (we have been out of printer ink, so i apologize for the delay) and we will also be encouraging Cross Roads Baptist Church in Pea Ridge, AR. Please come out if you can starting Wednesday night through the rest of the week: Revival, dinner at 6pm revival services at 7pm.
God Bless and we love you all
