Goodbye

This week has been tough and good at the same time. Our last Sunday with Pine Ridge Fellowship was Sunday and our my last youth service was last night. Man am I going to miss the worshipping with those teenagers. Their passion for God shows up every week, I love it. Last night was a great night although we had some technical difficulties. It was a great time of worship, celebrating, and just enjoying each other in the Lord. FSM I will not forget all that I have seen God do in and through you. You have inspired me in many ways. I look forward to hearing reports of God doing amazing things for He is an amazing God. Well tomorrow is officially my last day @ PRF, then we'll take a little vacation (heading to Disney for a couple days), then we'll start at Fellowship Orlando March 9th. We are exciting to open the next door and see what He has in store for us. Grace and Peace, Dustin

A new season is here.

January 1 2006-February 28 2008 will conclude a great season for the Aagaard family. This is the season we will have lived and worked in Deltona through Pine Ridge Fellowship. This season has been very good to us. We have been blessed by a great church community, great staff team, and amazing student ministry filled with awesome leaders and students. This week we have annouced that we have recognized God wanting to open up a new season for the Aagaard family. Although our time here has been great we had 3 primary problems. 1) We worked too much. I'm not against work but TJ and I both have been working 2 jobs each and still struggling financially. 2) Due to being overworked we naturally have undercared for our family. Like most people we love our family more than anything and just felt like they were getting the shaft by daddy being gone all the time or tired when I was home. 3) The longer we stay here the more debt we accumulate. Obviously I don't need to go into the ramifications of that. Although we struggled we felt like God wanted us there for that season and then my buddy Chad and I began dreaming of doing ministry together. That dream quickly went from dreamland to reality as just last week we were offered to join Fellowship Orlando staff to work with kids. We will begin March 9th and are excited to see what God has in store for the southeast community of Orlando. You can check them out at http://fellowshiporlando.com/ . If this blog lacks heart it is becuase I feel emotionally drianed from dealing with telling the church all week. Although we are excited and know its a God thing it still is hard telling close friends that we are moving away. I'll blog more about all this when i have more energy. Grace & Peace, Dustin
