big news & a big request.

it's a big week at the brister house (ehh... apartment). aside from literally never turning off the olympics and developing a possibly unhealthy obsession with team usa's fab five, we've been busy with some new things we want to fill y'all in on.

1. today marks 10 MONTHS since we said our "I Dos." double digits, baby! i seriously can't believe we're so close to the one year mark. these months have flown. (okay, okay, this isn't really a new thing, but i couldn't help myself.)

2. i started a new part-time job yesterday! yeah employment! i'll be writing and editing for an international sports ministry called uttermost sports. i'm excited to use those skills and to feel like i'm doing something with an international flare to it (if you know me, you know i need that).

and finally... drumroll please....

3. chris and i are officially starting part-time with providence road today! to say we're excited would be an understatement. we'll be developing the college ministry, organizing the "for the city" work, maintaining the social media accounts, and helping with the administrative/organizational side of things. yeah!!

we've been raising support since may in order for us to be able to come on as part-time staff at prov road, and we're close to our goal, but not quite there yet. would you consider helping us reach our goal? whether you're able to give $10 or $100, any and everything will be GREATLY appreciated!! you can do a one-time or monthly gift; you can give online or mail in a check. seriously, every little bit helps!

to give online, click here, fill out the super easy form, then LET ME KNOW so that i can make sure it gets designated for our account. to mail a check, please contact me and i'll give you an address (sorry, i didn't feel comfortable posting it on here). to contact me, you can leave a comment on this post, send me a facebook message, or DM me on twitter (@cjbrister). thank you for considering supporting us and our ministry in this way!
