Easter and New Life

"...I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly."  John 10:10

On this Easter Day of celebration we shared with family and friends about new life....(watch 1 minute 45 second video)



We leave tomorrow (April 1...no fooling!) for Israel and 4 straight months of travel.  Your prayers will most certainly be appreciated.  

And if you think this is an April Fools joke, it's not.  ;)  Scroll down....

God Bless!



















Coming to a family close to you around October 10, 2013....

  1. Hey guys, congratulations! God is great. We had the easter egg hunt downtown on saturday, there were 650 people! Amazing. So I pray for safe travel and God's continued blessing on your journey. I am with you in spirit. Give my best to the kids.
    Love in Christ, Richie

  2. WHAAAAAaaAaaT?!!? If there was a webcam in my office right now, you'd see my jaw, literally dangling on the floor.

    I am SOOOO excited for you guys! And even more excited our baby girl will have a playmate!

    Tee hee, giggling uncontrollably over here. :)

    If this turns out to be an April fools joke, I'm going to hide something stinky in your house while you're gone. I mean it. Don't mess with me. :)

    We love you guys! And will start praying like maniacs!

  3. Wow... wow... wow...

    I am stunned, but very happy for you guys!

    Although, I must say that AJ doesn't seem all that excited. :-) He is just hanging out, playing in the sand.

    Did I say, "Wow." :-)

    If I ever travel to New Zealand I think Stacey will have to stay home. :-)

    Hi Andrew & family,

    Thank you for sharing this wonderful moment. It is very kind of you to share this joy with Eleanor and me. It was exciting to watch. The beach was beautiful. We especially enjoyed the older girls initial reaction and then the second reaction when the reality set in to their faces and voices.

    Best regards, Hal & Eleanor

    Andrew and Rachel,

    Gail and I feel so blessed to have crossed paths with you both. It is amazing how God's timing is perfect, and how our purpose unfolds before us when we give it all to Him. Undoubtedly, this entire trip will change every one of the Scott families lives forever. This new addition is just one more way that God is changing each of you. We love you, and pray for protection, guidance, and growth. Congratulations!!
