Utah
We were invited to a Ladies luncheon, it was a 50's theme so Mackenzie and Justina had a good time dressing up! Hello from Utah, We are enjoying being here in Utah, although it does have a dark underlined feeling of evil at times. I would not want to live here all the time but I am thankful for the Pastors and their families who are willing to come and start churches here. It is a hard field for them, The church we were in sunday averages 15 people after 14 yrs. The pastor seems to be encouraged about what God is doing. We have a meeting this Wed. and then on Sunday and then we are off to Idaho. Today is Nolan's 11th birthday, He is growing up to be quite the Young man. He is a good help with his little brothers and a big help to his mom and Dad. He really enjoys playing out side, he made his own little putt putt course and he did a good job. The church we are staying at has a little creek in the back of it, all the kids have really enjoyed playing around that, finding snakes...

New Teenager, New House, New Van, New Glasses and More
Yes, it has been too long since my last post and now I have to catch up on all the new news that has gone on in the Knouf Family. First of all, we have a new teen in the house, Justina Marie Knouf turned 13 on March 27! We celebrated her birthday on the 23rd, she had a party at the park and then had a couple of friends stay the night in the trailer, while dad and the kids went and spent the night at the Nolanites. This just happened to be the very last night that we were going to sleep in our trailer. The next morning we had to rush around and head down to pick up our new motor home. It is a Newmar, All star and it is wonderful! We had been praying that the Lord would provide something for us by the end of March and He did just that! The man that was working on our Loan said that We must have someone else working on our behalf , b/c he has not seen too many loans go through with no money down and No proof of income. God is so good, isn't He. He also provided a 2005 15 pass Chevy ex...
Levi, Levi, Levi
Well I meant to write last week but it was crazy last week! We had so many appt.! We all had our eyes checked, Jon, Nolan and I need glasses on a part time basis, but Hailey needs glasses all the time, thankfully she is very excited! Mackenzie down to Noah went to the dentist, and Hailey, Levi and Logan had their physicals, and I also went in for a check up and to top it off, it was my birthday:-) So hopefully you can see why I am just now getting around to blogging. The title of this blog is Levi, that is b/c I have some stories to tell about him:-) Last week we were at Calvary Baptist Church of Simi Valley, when we got to the church the Pastor was showing us in the church and Levi saw our poster on the wall and said "hey look there's the family singers!" But the topper was when we were singing a song and he was on the front row, He began singing the song at the top of his lungs it was all Jon and I and the rest of the gang could do to get through the song without laughi...
Hi, it's me Justina
Being a singer is lots of fun, a singer for the Lord that is. Even though it's sometimes hard living in a trailer with six brothers and sisters, It's still cool to see new people and places. We also don't always get the same remarks, like good job. And if you were in the ministry or if you already are you would know there isn't always smiling faces. But I still don't regret singing, it gives me joy serving God and its worth it all. It was also hard saying goodbye to my old life and house;especially since I get home sick a lot. Still it's worth It all.Well that's about it, thank you.
