I'm sorry that it has been more than a week since my last post....life is busy right now and therefore, blogging gets put on the back burner. I apologize to all of my loyal readers out there...please forgive me...all 5 of you. :)
We've got some big news to share from the Rives household...Josh has accepted a new job with Family Legacy Missions International, the organization we went to Zambia with this past summer! Josh has really been feeling the "pull" to get back into full time ministry for a while now. After we got home from Zambia, we started praying fervently that God would open a door in this direction....and we prayed that he would do so quickly. Well he did. Josh interviewed for the job last Tuesday and accepted the job on Wednesday...and today was his first day of work! It's been so cool to watch God move over the last few weeks....we are confident that He has orchestrated each and every detail. Josh's role at Family Legacy is the Director of Technology and Information Systems....it just couldn't be more perfect for him! Here is a description of his position....this was sent out in an email this past weekend to everyone involved in the ministry of Family Legacy....
Josh Rives is coming to Family Legacy with over four years experience in database design, systems integration and information technology consulting from the internationally known consulting group of Accenture, Inc. Josh will be working directly with our outside database consulting firm in developing and expanding the Father’s Heart database, including developing the enhanced Father’s Heart Sponsor interface and communication module. He will also be working to design and launch our brand new Camp LIFE database, including our online Camp LIFE registration and trip management system. Finally, Josh will be working with our creative design firm over the next several months as we completely overhaul our ministry website. Ministry is Josh’s passion and database and technology consulting is his forte. Josh and his wife Mindy live in Coppell, TX and are both alumni of Camp LIFE Zambia 2008.
We ask that you pray for us during this transition...as we'll definitely be making some huge lifestyle changes as we adjust to a "ministry" salary....Josh is taking a HUGE pay cut by leaving the "real" business world, but we know it's worth it and faithful that God will provide for our needs.
Have a great week!

Congrats to Josh. That is great.
I think you have more than 5 readers...even if some of us haven't commented before!! Congrats as y'all as this new journey begins for Josh (and you!)
what an exciting new life change...life camp has left a legacy for you!
I am so excited for you both. Just be encouraged that God will truly bless you and Josh beyond what you can imagine BECAUSE you are seeking to do His will and those are blessings you would miss out on if you weren't following His call. I am excited and proud of YOU BOTH. Love, Your crippled friend
