The boot tradition

Leave a reply

In Germany we have a boot tradition for December 6th. Today we want to talk about the man who it goes back to. Be encouraged.

Hi our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving week here in San Francisco. A table is so much better when you have people around it and that is exactly what we did on Thanksgiving Day.  We hosted a traditional Thanksgiving meal and had neighbors sit together with us around our table. We had a wonderful time together and it gave everyone there a feeling of family. We are so thankful that our new apartment can host a big dining table and more important than that people that can sit around it. We want to encourage you to start thinking about Christmas and who, of the people who live around you, you want to invite to sit around your table!

And 2 more things at the end about the video: Ask yourself who has a need for help and then help them in a way that they don’t know who did it! Stand up for someone who can’t stand up for themselves.

This week’s Gospel Carrier is Johann Sebastian Bach. He was gifted in music and used his gifting to bring Glory to God. His music still encourages and brings joy to people in today’s time. Be encouraged by this wonderful man of God.

Hi our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!!

This week had a theme of prayer for us. Wednesday I was helping to lead a zoom prayer meeting at our church. On Saturday we had a prayer walk with YWAM across our side of the city and then Sunday I was part of a prayer team class at the church. I love the question Corrie Ten Boom asked: Is prayer your steering wheel or your spare tire? Let’s make sure it’s our steering wheel!!

We hope you got inspired by Bach. Ask God and yourself what your gifting is. When you know, start developing your gift and start growing in it! Use the gift for building gods kingdom and his glory not your own, like Bach said “all to Gods Glory”.

God bless you

Hi our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!!

This week I got to share at a YWAM Event with a panel of others on zoom about neighborhoods. We all shared on the places we live and how special and unique they are and talked about challenges our neighborhoods face and how we can help in those areas as believers. One thing that stuck out with all of the panelist was that following the great commandment in loving our neighbors makes a difference wherever we are. We want to encourage you that loving your neighbor also makes a difference in the area where you live. Start with it or keep doing it!!

We hope you got inspired by the video. Lets ask ourselves the question: Are we willing to lay down our dreams and life to follow Jesus to build his kingdom?

God bless you

Hi our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!!

Last weekend we did the 2nd part of the love your neighbor workshop with a church in the city. It was so encouraging to hear how God gave them a different perspective as well as a greater impact with the people around them since the first time we met. This is our heart to train and inspire people to love their neighbors in their neighborhood, bring hope and build genuine relationships. It also helps to bring people out of isolation that are trapped in it. If you are interested in joining one of the workshops we do either in person or over zoom, just send us an email and we will let you know when we host the next one!!

We hope you got inspired by the video. Lets ask yourself the question: How does God want to use your talents to build the kingdom?

God bless you

Hi our friend

How was your week?

This week San Francisco got hit with a heat wave for our San Francisco summer (our summer is September October). According to Alexa we got one day temperatures up to 98 degrees. But that didn’t stop us from having our small group, a dinner with neighbors and to have our neighbor brunch. No matter if its hot or cold we are all in need of community in every season.  We want to encourage you to keep building community in the neighborhood you live in!!

We hope you were inspired by the video! Don’t forget to ask yourself the following questions: Do you have talents in translating languages ​​and does God want to use you to translate the Bible into languages ​​that it doesn’t yet exist in? Who can you encourage who you know and who is good with languages ​​to help translate the Bible? Who can you support who translates the Bible, financially or in other ways? Pray about it!!

God bless you
