Pictures of the Kids!






Here are some recents pictures of the kids.

What's new for the Bradsher's?

Well the Lord has led our family to a new church family. We are now attending New Hope Presbyterian in Clemmons, NC. I just started on staff as the part time Youth Pastor as of August 17th.

I was not looking for this position, but God planned this for me, and now we are there. The church is really great, and we are looking forward to what God has laid out for us at New Hope.

As for new news, the kids are still doing well, Corbin is growing by leaps and bounds and so has Cameron. Cameron has grown a few inches since spring, and Hannah is growing into quite the princess.

With my job loss, we are focusing hard on missions now, and Kristen is getting ready to work a part time job to supplement our unemployment income.

We are currently at 86% of our one time goal and 65% of our monthly support needs. So please pray that we are able to raise the rest soon. I feel that God is telling me that we will have 100% pledged by October of this year, and I have no doubts that it will be done if that is His plans.

Many Blessings,

The Bradsher's

Where have I been??

Well it has been quite a while since I have posted. Mainly because life has been way too busy to be writing on the blog. But now I have a little more time.

Most of you may know that I was laid off from my job last week. So that is why I have a little more free time. The job loss was quite a shock and I did not expect it at all. But I was able to allow God to use it as a witness to the HR and managers in the office during the lay off.

The funny thing about all of this is that I took three weeks off prior to last week and the entire three weeks that I was off I was praying that God would show me a way out of my current job so that we could focus more attention on raising the remainder of our monthly support needed to go to Africa. So God answered the prayer.

It is going to be really tight on our family, actually the budget puts us in the red by $580 a month, but we know that our God is much bigger than budgets, and lay offs and will provide for our family.

We certainly do appreciate your prayers for our family during this time.
