I guess I need to change the picture even though I love the picture of my blessings. A lot has happened since 2009. I have become a grandmother of twin boys and oh so much more. I will try to come back from time to time to update.Emilyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09169507605031570715noreply@blogger.com15tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35937896.post-71076237027760605602009-07-22T19:51:00.003-04:002009-07-22T19:57:52.317-04:00Pray for Matt and AlexiaA few days ago Matt totaled he and Alexia's car. Praise the Lord he is ok but the car isn't. Please pray that the Lord provides them with another vehicle because their other vehicle which is an old van goes about 2 miles and then overheats.<div><br /></div><div>Thanks in advance for your prayers!</div>Emilyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09169507605031570715noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35937896.post-66884863766336279352009-07-11T15:21:00.004-04:002009-07-15T08:09:35.246-04:00A New Season In Life<div style="text-align: center;">Family Update</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Taylor</div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_ovvhpHDBUbGyEld13Z9WGIJ2XWMtveZIRp0w0o5CcpbdM1DEj0mXcgmzBnPSJMOqpRVInt4uu2PatuVNaZ-I5hCSMWOTGDgLVWNAASo_QMcLTrjyqaX7AzXDFQRBanrBO3dxVQ/s1600-h/IMG_3456.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 134px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_ovvhpHDBUbGyEld13Z9WGIJ2XWMtveZIRp0w0o5CcpbdM1DEj0mXcgmzBnPSJMOqpRVInt4uu2PatuVNaZ-I5hCSMWOTGDgLVWNAASo_QMcLTrjyqaX7AzXDFQRBanrBO3dxVQ/s200/IMG_3456.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5357292963892685426" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">Jordan</div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjh24fziQDcRpCIJHHpICG69hTalMtlrTbryxqOBl5CoyawM0nA0_mn3gNPmIJuLsG7yF5XUyxObRJmadCvlgnCf5c0O37i-wFVjYG4oQ0LKoOdQCugOzKwyqxAk4umAUeegq5SMg/s1600-h/IMG_3648.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjh24fziQDcRpCIJHHpICG69hTalMtlrTbryxqOBl5CoyawM0nA0_mn3gNPmIJuLsG7yF5XUyxObRJmadCvlgnCf5c0O37i-wFVjYG4oQ0LKoOdQCugOzKwyqxAk4umAUeegq5SMg/s200/IMG_3648.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5357292685431271938" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">Landon</div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhK1nqE5DImDHWVdq5KN9gub0ugT5ZPbXKYDzJwTdZmDZFx1FeJPuWWvYN8Wa9LR0_ds_WvxwoI34wR743t24x2EepvtPalDdMTC7_wfhGkfH7OUVc5TSLllgRb6Ad2hivKKHd03A/s1600-h/IMG_3449.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhK1nqE5DImDHWVdq5KN9gub0ugT5ZPbXKYDzJwTdZmDZFx1FeJPuWWvYN8Wa9LR0_ds_WvxwoI34wR743t24x2EepvtPalDdMTC7_wfhGkfH7OUVc5TSLllgRb6Ad2hivKKHd03A/s200/IMG_3449.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5357292681512751586" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">Our wonderful new son in law Matt and Alexia</div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSG8gO83msijsdJfRlp96YOANxmCPYb9F2Oao507eyvRF_NZmoebBd31970PNvFC7hYq1t1P4DFaFcjLAeHGaNeOYRa-7xxwNt8EhDXKzh-1B4oA_Oh_k3Ja9OqUfUw0aJXznijg/s1600-h/IMG_4833.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSG8gO83msijsdJfRlp96YOANxmCPYb9F2Oao507eyvRF_NZmoebBd31970PNvFC7hYq1t1P4DFaFcjLAeHGaNeOYRa-7xxwNt8EhDXKzh-1B4oA_Oh_k3Ja9OqUfUw0aJXznijg/s200/IMG_4833.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5357292679639978034" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">Me and my honey</div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYCktFY0Qi3O9T4puPtjHAMBjw0862bT2HE3L_lxJwhMlLaRNNqJ4v8KcSObllOp-ZSIHWQlTBDigu0I5qDIcZ2UEbzcUIXTv2QfTne3GoQirnLqAifEE8BSJkbQfuRM_OsqsZkw/s1600-h/IMG_3532.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYCktFY0Qi3O9T4puPtjHAMBjw0862bT2HE3L_lxJwhMlLaRNNqJ4v8KcSObllOp-ZSIHWQlTBDigu0I5qDIcZ2UEbzcUIXTv2QfTne3GoQirnLqAifEE8BSJkbQfuRM_OsqsZkw/s200/IMG_3532.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5357292673128220530" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">The girls . . .Alexia, Sierra and me :-)</div><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2lo1GTGNS96oQFu3v2c08LrgL7SF6wTHEuml2yIgP9-_yWmInxMtZ_AlFpidfEZ7AvzgnzReyJWpwnwdx9eTZOUMYEVgTk754zM4XO7PCNRM06I6k6Ok6SRDMPVdkbZK1EiXznA/s200/IMG_3440.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5357292670141428594" />My poor blog has been has not been updated for awhile as many of you know. I have been trying to get back here but my life is a whirlwind right now and it's hard to find time to get back here.<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div>What's new in our home? Well, we are in a new season of life. We currently have 4 of our 5 blessings in Kansas City at the International House of Prayer. www.ihop.org. Jordan will be starting his third year at their Forerunner School of Ministry and he continues to play keys in their 24/7 Global 24/7 Prayer Room on our son in laws worship team. He has at least two more years in KC and then we pray he comes back to home and back to Orlando House of Prayer where we are contending for 24/7 prayer and worship. </div><div><br /></div><div>Alexia as you know got married to Matt on May 16th. They had a wonderful honeymoon and they are now back in Kansas City where Matt is on staff at IHOP and is one of the worship leaders there. Alexia will be taking audit classes at IHOP this coming year. She needs to keep her time available so she can travel with Matt on ministry trips. They also just got a new puppy named Jerry :-)</div><div><br /></div><div>Taylor and Landon has been in Kansas City since June. Landon has been doing their ATC (Awaken Teen Camp) and also did their leadership track. He will be home some time this month. Taylor decided to spend the summer there and is also applying to do one of their internships. We will know what happens with his future in a week or so.</div><div><br /></div><div>Sierra actually was in Kansas City too this summer. She went for a few weeks with Carlos and then decided to stay another 10 days with the kids. So, at one time we had all five kids in KC and Carlos and I back here in Orlando. . . . boy that felt weird :-)</div><div><br /></div><div>As many of you know Carlos and I are the Executive Director's of IHOP Orlando - the Orlando House of Prayer - OHOP. We are a missions base that is contending for 24/7 prayer and worship. The heart of OHOP is our prayer room where we are 70 hours away from being 24/7.</div><div><br /></div><div>We have about 19 full and part time intercessory missionaries at OHOP. They spend about 20 hours in the prayer room a week and the other 20 hours doing service and admin. hours on the missions base or in one of our arteries such as the Compassion Center.</div><div><br /></div><div>I also volunteer about 20 hours at the Compassion Center. www.cflcompassioncenter.com We feed and clothe about 300 homeless and low income families and individuals a week. I am in the process of organizing the clothing and also reach out to the community to bring in food drives.</div><div><br /></div><div>For the first time in about 21 years Carlos and I have been working "together" in ministry. I have always supported him but when the kids were small and I was homeschooling all five of them I could not be of much help so I supported him. Now that the kids are older and some have left the nest it has allowed me to partner with him in ministry! We are having a great time and we have an amazing team at OHOP. </div><div><br /></div><div>I am going to try to keep the blog updated with "life" details. I probably will not be posting many pictures because it takes too long but if you have a FACEBOOK I post almost everything over there. You can find me at Emily Katsanis Sarmiento. I also added the Orlando House of Prayer page box to the right side of my blog. If you have a FACEBOOK I invite you to become a fan and you can see all what we are doing down in Orlando.</div><div><br /></div><div>I have received so many nice notes and comments from you all saying you have missed my posts. I will try hard to pop in here and keep you all updated! </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div> </div>Emilyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09169507605031570715noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35937896.post-28283105733515630412009-05-18T20:14:00.002-04:002009-05-18T20:17:21.962-04:00Where have the posts gone?Many of you have contacted me wondering why I am behind or lagging in blogging.

I would have posted these pictures sooner buy my HP Laptop that I use to blog died and so I couldn't get to my pictures until now.<br /><br />Lisa went in for an induction around 11pm on Thursday night. I arrived around 1 am. I brought my pillow and sleeping bag and pretty much set up my bed when I got there and we all headed to sleep.<br /><br />Around 5:30am her water broke and then things started rolling.<br /><div align="center"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 180px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sohpia20.jpg" border="0" />In the delivery room was Ken<img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 212px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sophia2.jpg" border="0" />me<img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 212px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/Sophia1.jpg" border="0" />and then arriving around 8am was Kathleen.<img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 212px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sophia3.jpg" border="0" />Ken was her rock and never left her side.<img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 160px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sophia4.jpg" border="0" /><br />Lisa normally only has to push about 20 minutes and the baby comes out but this time it was different she had pushed for 2 hours and nothing was happening. So, the doctor decided she better have a C-Section. Lisa was not too happy about this but she knew it was best for the baby.<img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 212px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sophia6.jpg" border="0" />Here is Ken getting on all his "gear"<img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 212px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sophia5.jpg" border="0" />They were ready to head to the operating room.<img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 212px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sophia8.jpg" border="0" />Sophia Grace came into this world totally perfect and beautiful!<img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 160px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sophia7.jpg" border="0" />Kaitlyn the proud big sister.<br /><a href="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sohpia11.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 212px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sohpia11.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sohpia12.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 212px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sohpia12.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sohpia13.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 212px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sohpia13.jpg" border="0" /></a> Lisa's friend Cindy stopped by along with JT and Taye<br /><div><div><div><div><div><a href="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sophia17.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 212px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sophia17.jpg" border="0" /></a> Lisa's dad - the proud grandpa!<br /><div><a href="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sophia15.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 160px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/March%202009/sophia15.jpg" border="0" /></a> Sophia is so beautiful!

We do these "Awaken The Bride" weekends once a month. We bring in a nationally known worship leader and sometimes part of her band. They come in for a Friday night service, Saturday morning roundtable and lead worship for our Sunday morning fellowship. Here are a few pictures from the weekend.<img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 295px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/142.jpg" border="0" />It was our largest ATB we have ever had!<a href="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/190.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 213px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/190.jpg" border="0" /></a> Kim was amazing!

It brings tears to my eyes because since my kids were first born I have been praying for their future mates. It's so neat to see in the flesh two of the five I have prayed for. Also, we are so blessed that both Jessica and Matt are involved in houses of prayer like we are. Jessica's family is part of the Detroit House of Prayer and Matt being involved at the International House of Prayer in Kansas City. Thank you Lord for bringing such wonderful fiances to Jordan and Alexia!<img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g211/emteacups/026-12.jpg" border="0" />Emilyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09169507605031570715noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35937896.post-3533989481589741382009-01-16T23:49:00.003-05:002009-01-17T00:00:33.980-05:00New Years Day with Matt and Family<div align="center">New Years Day we met Matt, his father, his sister and her "fiance" . . . yes, I said fiance.
