Hello our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!

Last week I got to have lunch with a new friend from the city and we got to share with each other about how God changed our lives. Its so encouraging to hear testimonies of how people found Jesus. Each story is different and unique. Ask a fellow believer for their testimony and share yours and be both encouraged!!

One reminder from the video at the end: Let Jesus work on your character and keep your word. Let your yes be a yes and your no be a no!

God bless you

Hi our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!!

One of the things I got to do during last week was going on a walk with a new neighbor friend. Its so special since during those times you get into real good conversation and get to know each other more. I want to encourage you to go on a walk with one of your neighbors to connect with them!

We also hope you got inspired through todays Gospel Carrier CS Lewis. What giftings do you think God has given you and how can you use them for the kingdom?

Have a blessed week

Hello our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!

It was so great being part of celebrating one of our neighbors last Sunday. He created an email list years ago and sends out emails with questions or things that are going on, in our specific area. He helped people to connect or share things that someone might not need anymore and someone else would really love to have. Jen and I benefited from this list multiple times by asking for a specific item like a lamp and neighbors reaching out to us with that. But that aside I love that he got recognized and encouraged in what he does. Are there people in your neighborhood that are a blessing to many? If so think about a way to recognize them, even if its just through a simple thank you or a little gift.

One reminder from the video at the end: Ask God for help when you come into a moment of temptation. Also make sure to walk away from the situation. And don’t forget if you fell in that area ask for forgiveness and receive the grace of Jesus!!

God bless you

Hi our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!!

During last week I got to connect with the leaders of the different YWAM Bay area ministries. It was such a wonderful time of sharing and praying for each other. Every time we have those I leave encouraged. Do you have a group of people you pray with? If not start looking for other believers and start to get together and pray!!

We also hope you got encouraged through Camerons story!  Ask God if he calls you to be a part of translating the bible orally into your dialect. If he calls you to do that you can do multiple things: You can pray for the ones who translate, you can help translate or you can support financially.

Have a blessed week

Reconciliation

Jesus most famous Sermon Part 3 Reconciliation

Today’s video is about Reconciliation in Matthew 5.21-24. Be inspired!

Hello our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!

In the last season Jen put Caleb to sleep at night. That gives me most evenings about 45 mins to just go out on a walk and listen to worship music and also pray. Its always such a refreshing time. Sometimes during those times God opens up short opportunities to have a short conversation with a neighbor friend and bring a short encouragement. I love it when He does that.

You see it doesn’t necessarily need extra time to love your neighbor you can just do it while you are going on a walk around your neighborhood anyway!! If you don’t go on walks around your neighborhood yet, I highly encourage you to do that!!

One reminder from the video at the end: Ask God to search your heart and show you who you have to reconcile with and ask for forgiveness. Then take the fist steps towards them and do it!!

God bless you

Markus, Jen and Caleb
