An Update

Well I haven't posted in a while and that's because my normal posts (my previous Wednesday nights notes) have been off because of some different things happening for the last 2 Wednesday nights. So I figured this would be a good time to give an update on how things are going for the Quinto family since moving to Huntington, TX.

We have been here for almost 8 months now and the time has flown by. We have already been through our first graduation, summer, camp, and new school year starting with the youth here in Huntington. Let me just say that things here are not exactly what I have expected. I really thought that when we moved here we would know everyone, all the students, parents, etc. in Huntington by now. That is just not the case, at all. We are just scratching the surface in getting ourselves established in the community.

Things have been great with the youth. The summer really afforded me with some time to develop relationships with some of the students and it was a wonderful summer. God has really opened up some opportunities for me to really pour into a few of these youth and that is what I feel God has called me to do. My desire is to disciple these students and really get them to see that their walk with God is more than just a surface thing, but that it is a struggle, and requires deep commitment and time from them. I have seen God grab a hold of some of these students and He has allowed me to come along side them and encourage them in their walk with Him.

Courtney and Bryson seem to be adjusting well. Bryson has made some friends and he loves the youth. Sometimes it seems he likes them more than me....oh well, he'll grow out of that, right? He is getting HUGE! Everyday he just grows and gets smarter. He definitely is going to be a handful for many years though. But all in all he is a great kid and I can't wait to seem him grow up in the Lord. Courtney is making friends and re-decorating our house every other day it seems! She is starting to sell Willow House home interior stuff and she is really excited about that, (hence all the re-decorating). So she is doing great as well!

So that is really about it. I don't know if this is of any interest to any of you but I really thought I would like to let people know what our lives are like these days. Thanks for reading and I would love to get some comments from you guys. Let me know what's up in your world, thanks again!!
