Well, I realize that I am late on shouting this from the rooftops, but...
OUR HOUSE IS SOLD!!!!!!!!!
It was, in my opinion, quite a miracle. We had an offer on a Monday and closed ten days later. Who ever heard of something selling that quickly!?! We are excited for the young family that bought the house. We pray blessings over them and all of our beloved neighbours back in Canada!
So we have been giving praise and glory to our generous, miracle-working Father!!!! We love to be amazed by Him, over and over again.
And now we are praying even more for a new home! Please join us. We know that He has brought us to Virginia to settle, strengthen and establish us here. We declare that to be true and are just waiting on His timing.
Blessings!

Life in Virginia
Well, life in our new state is certainly not dull and boring! We experienced our first earthquake on Tuesday, which was a crazy, helpless feeling. We were all a bit freaked out, all except Bob, who was just thinking of Acts chapter two!!! No one was hurt and no damage was done to the house, thanks to the Lord!
We had already made plans with the family with whom we are staying to take all of our children, plus two neighbours, to a local water park. After we recovered from the shaking, we went ahead with our plans to go and celebrate the end of summer. We had called ahead to make sure they were still open, since many D. C. buildings had been evacuated or closed. They were open, although when we arrived, all of the main water slides were closed for safety precautions. Thankfully, they re-opened shortly after we arrived and we had a great time in the sun!
We are now watching Hurricane Irene with the rest of the East Coast. We have helped prepare the property so that nothing blows away or gets damaged, and Bob readied the generator last night. We are praying for every one's safety!
Our home in Canada has sold! Wooohooo! We will close next week and are so thrilled and thankful! We pray many blessings on the new family. I know they will love the house and the neighbourhood.
Bob and I are excited about going to a conference today and tomorrow with the Intercessors for America.
And we are looking forward to celebrating a birthday girl on Sunday!
Blessings on your day!

August Prayer Update
Here is a quick update on how things are progressing in Northern Virginia near D.C. We have been staying with the amazing and hospitable Jon Tigges family at their house/bed and breakfast, Zion Springs, since July 16. Their 6 kiddos and our crew of 5 have bonded in such a special way...great friends already. As we have shared our story with them about our heart for awakening and revival, they have connected us with so many other individuals and families with the same heart. Something is really brewing here...we are excited but not really surprised anymore as we begin to get established here in the area. Here are some prayer requests...
1. Bob is meeting next week with an accountant in Leesburg to explore the possibilities of setting up a non-profit organization or a church or some other option.
2. Pray for our house in Hamilton, Ontario, to sell. It has been on the market for 2 weeks with one offer falling through. We want to settle here in the Hamilton, VA, area and know the right place at the right time will open up.
It was a privilege for Bob to travel to Houston last weekend for the fasting and prayer event, TheResponse. He also thoroughly enjoyed spending time with his parents as well as his sister and kiddos who were visiting.
You can check out Scarlett's blog, www.thescarlettthread.blogspot.com for more details and pics on Royce family life.

With much anticipation...
