Our holidays were great and we all experienced our first time as a family playing in the snow. The kids had a blast and I did too 
It is a new years and we have some new things on the horizon. First off we are expecting a third unnamed Mayo in the house in July! Yes Yvette is pregnant. She is in her 16th week and we have been anticipating what this new little person is going to be like. Boy or girl? Introvert or extrovert? All we know is that this new little person will surprise us 
Secondly, my book His Story, Our Story will be published through Amazon on January 31st. It is a 31 day devotional focusing on unique figures in black history and how we can learn about God through their lives. I’m so excited to be able to make this available as my first attempt at being published. It definitely will not be my last.
Lastly, we are going to Buffalo this coming MLK weekend to participate in a forum focused on providing solutions to racism. I will also be speaking at the Vineyard church in Buffalo on Sunday and hanging out with the leaders. I believe it is the beginning of God allowing me to speak into this topic and there will be more to come.
All in all we have had a very rough 2012 and we are looking forward to a much more joyous and fruitful 2013.
Prayer requests:
Please pray for Yvette and the baby. Yvette has been sick with a cold for the last two weeks. Pray for her complete healing.
Please pray for protection, good weather, and health for all of us as we travel to Buffalo. Please pray that God does something amazing in that city through our efforts there.
Please pray for my book. My desire is to see it in the hands of not only African Americans but people of all races and that it would lead to greater understanding of God and each other.
Thank you! Gracias! Merci! Dhanyavad! Shieh shieh! Ameseginalehu!
