Honeymoon (late post)
4 commentsThis was written in London, we just never posted it....
Hello friends and family. We made it to our first destination….London!
We are loving it here and are so thankful for time to rest before we head off to Africa. We had lunch at some little Italian place in some off part of London it was so fun! Our Guidence System in the rental car (which talks) has saved our butts!!! It’s been really fun to drive around and we have commented many times that our mothers, because of their driving, would be dead meat here ☺. The driving is so crazy.
We have had a lot of time to reflect on the wedding and we are still so amazed by what happened that night. It was perfect and powerful and more than we expected. We were so blessed by all of you that were able to attend. We felt so loved, celebrated, and supported the whole night. Brittany was the most beautiful bride. My favorite part was when I sang to her during the ceremony, she was absolutely stunning.
We sat and wrote all the wonderful moments of the night. So many little happenings blessed us so much. Some of my (Brittany) favorite moments include
Johnny calling himself a woman during the ceremony
Dad’s toast
Isaac’s song
Comments of people who God touched
All the people who were ministering (praying) for each other during the reception. (Isaac’s addition)
We would love to hear from some of you what you were blessed by…so comment if you have anything.
We will write again with some pictures of our honeymoon soon! Thanks Andy and Betty We are leaving tomorrow for Pemba Mozambique for the Holy Given School of Missions for the next three months. Pray that we adjust well and find the measure of grace Jesus has for us there.
(Update...God has been so amazing to us in our time here we feel like we are still having a honeymoon a lot of times and the Lord just keeps bringing to mind and perserving in is the testimony of how faithful he is and how much love He pours out on us...Read Psalms 92 for more insight :)

Hi, again!
Just a quick word I was feeling after praying for you guys: 2 Cor. 12;9..."And He said to me,'My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.' Therefore most gladly I would rather boast in my weaknesses, that the power of God might rest upon me....for when I am weak, then I am strong." You two are Awesome...we are "lending our strength" to you in prayer. I wish I could hug you right now. Love, Christie

Hey again,
We are so happy that the two of you are doing well and are having an amazing time on the beginning of this miraculous journey. We miss you guys both, Mikey carries around his knife everyday, I think so that he is carrying a little piece of Isaac with him wherever he goes. We hope that God is providing you with so many blessings and amazing revelations. We love you guys and pray for you two daily, continue to gain strength and resilence from each other, and may God continue to bless both of you and the many lives in which you will encounter. Take care, love ya!
-Mikey and Courtney
