A Quick Update from the Monon Coffee Company

Kourtney and I are taking a breather from the past 3 days of non-stop action. This trip has brought about so many emotions and overwhelming realities. I think most of the reason it's been a mix of emotions is because for the past 3 days we've been driving back and forth from Waveland, Indiana - about a hour drive each way to and from Indy. Kourtney's youngest sister, Jennifer, and her son Peyton were able to join us for the past few days. We've literally been in the car for the most part of each day driving around and scoping out the area! I'm working on uploading some pics I have taken in Downtown Indy and some surrounding areas. I haven't gotten the chance (well, I think I mostly just forgot) to take many pics from Broad Ripple. Keep tuned in for those in the next day or two. I've been putting off getting an iphone, but it would have come in very handy these past two days. I steal Kourtney's whenever I get the chance. Everyday has been cloudy and dreary....I forgot how much of a toll this weather takes on me. That's one harsh reality. We've been looking at apartment communities and houses for rent. There are tons of homes for rent in the area, but not many actual apartment communities right near downtown BR (Broad Ripple). Last night we met a guy who showed us an apartment and he told us that he real specialty was sound engineering. After we told him why we were moving to Indy he told us that he'd love to help us out even if we didn't end up renting an apartment there! That was nice little blessing. BR is such a cute area with so many amazing homes. I can't wait to take some pics and post them for you. Driving around has opened our eyes to all of the amazing areas around BR. It's nice being here, but to be honest, I'm feeling somewhat overwhelmed at what's up ahead. I think we're crazy to be starting a church! I'm so glad that the Lord doesn't count on our abilities and that this whole thing is in His hands. This whole time I've been thinking about how we've done a pretty great job at planning this church plant, but coming here and getting a taste of reality makes me realize how much more work, planning and prayer needs to be done. If you've been lifting this trip up in prayer, please continue to do so (and Thank You!), but if not, please pray for us. Satan can fill our minds will all kinds of doubts and fears and I'm feeling the weight of that right now. I'm sorry I've not been better about keeping up to date with the whole trip, so thanks for being patient! Call me if you need some more details! Love, Faith
