Hi our friend

How are you?

We hope you had a great week. We are still in Germany until September 28th and therefore there is no update from our week here but you will still find a new topic here every week!! Check back every week and be encouraged and challenged!!!

Remember this week to write down what God spoke to you about your calling, and if you don’t know yet keep praying and asking him. If God hasn’t given you a specific calling, know that he gave one to each one of us: Loving our neighbor. So lets all do that!!

God bless you

Hi our friend

How are you?

This week was special in the way that we had many unplanned connections that were really encouraging. Running into people in the park, the grocery store or just on the street was such a blessing. Sometimes the best conversations happen in moments like this. We want to encourage you to allow time for spontaneous connections with people!!

Also remember this week to keep your eyes on God in the midst of everything!!

God bless you

Hi our friend

How are you?

Our Staff Retreat was wonderful! We were at a retreat center in the middle of the forest which was wonderful. It was such a time of refreshment, learning, praying for each other and reconnecting. Caleb had a wonderful time too and made many friends who he played with a lot. We are so thankful for our YWAM Family and for the fact that we are able to show Jesus together to people in different parts of the city and the bay area. What a blessing.

Don’t forget this week to ponder on these questions from the story about Jude: who is Jesus to you in your life? Is he the one for everything?

God bless you

Hi our friend

How was your week?

We had a wonderful week in San Francisco. Our highlight so was our first Love your neighbor conversation meetup and it was wonderful! The participants were giving good feedback and it was a good first time. We are excited to see how God will use this time of conversation and questions to encourage and equip people in loving their neighbor. Join us in one of the future ones! The next one is august 26th at 5pm PST.

Spend some time this week and read the book of Jude and think about how it applies into today’s time!

God bless you

Stories to think about – John the son of thunder

Our story today is about John and how Jesus calls people. Be encouraged by his story!

Hi our friend

How are you?

Mark twain was right when he said the coldest winter he ever experienced was summer in San Francisco. We had wonderful sunshine everyday but the temperatures were low. But that didn’t stop us from connecting with our community and others outside. We got to go on walks with some or connect while walking in the morning. Just by being out there we were able to encourage some or be a listening ear to others. The importance is that we are outside and use the chance to connect with others.

And also like Jesus called the son of thunder and he became a great disciple who changed the world,  let us do that today while beeing outside in our neighborhood. Let’s find the sons and daughters of thunder in our neighborhood and call them and guide them too so they can be a big part of the kingdom!!

God bless you
