updates (since it's been so long since our last post)...

Well, it's been far too long since our last post. Please forgive us!

Much has transpired in the Demary home, with the following highlights being the biggest news:





**We're having a baby! Little baby fumary (combination of my maiden and married names = fumary) is growing fast and is about the size of an avocado at the moment. He or she (we'll find out next month which one) is due June 4th and we are SO excited!




**I (Lindsay) graduate on Friday from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University with a Master of Arts in Spiritual Formation and Soul Care. That basically means I have survived the training and can now officially offer the ministry of spiritual direction and other spiritual formation ministries such as spiritual retreats and spiritual direction groups. I am currently looking to expand my ministry by offering one-to-one spiritual direction, as well as help churches facilitate spiritual retreats. If you know of anyone interested in these types of things, send them my way! I am listed on the Evangelical Spiritual Directors Association website here.

**Randy is in the throes of applying for PhD programs across the US. He's applying to 8 schools (including Fuller, which we hope and pray works out) and we are very much in a season of waiting and trusting that God will continue to guide us and provide for us as he always has and does. We appreciate your prayers as we continue to send in apps and seek God's will with whatever acceptance letters come back.

Since the first trimester of pregnancy has taken most of the pregnancy symptoms of fatigue and nausea away, I hope to be more active on our blog again. 

Merry Christmas to you!
