How are you? Looking back how has 2019 been for you so far? Any goals you want to finish by the end of the year? Jen and I are working on ours the book. Its been really moving forward.  Our goal is to write all the stories by the end of the year.

Here are some of the highlights of last week:

  • We got to write some more stories for the book which is exciting.
  • We were invited to a fundraiser for a neighborhood organization which was a lot of fun.
  • our friend Kenny came out for a visit which was wonderful too.

And then we also had all our usual stuff going on. But looking at the highlights makes looking back even more exciting!!

Remember this week to not let fear get a hold in your life and to start overcoming it!

Hi our friend

We hope you had a great week!! We are enjoying the last few days of San Francisco summer before it gets colder again. Our last week was full of wonderful times with our older friends at the Italian senior center and the younger friends at the boys and girls club. We also had all our other things going on. Keep us in prayer in the coming weeks to keep moving forward with the stories for the book. Thank you friend!!

Hi our friend

How are you? Since we are so far away its hard to stay up to date with everyone. You are up to date with us through blog and newsletter but we would love to hear how you are doing. Drop us a quick line when you have time!!

We hope you had an amazing week!! Ours was great here in SF. We got to meet up with many different people from church (Our small group and church), the neighborhood (boys and girls club Italian center and neighbors brunch) and ywam (Bay area leaders meeting and watching kids of Ywam friends). All those times give you opportunity to invest in others, but also get invested in. We love those moments where hope is brought! Its important to connect with different people to bring Gods love but also to get encouraged.

Remember this week to look at your life and see what things you need to get rid of!

Have a blessed week!!

Our week in San Francisco was a bit different. We had the fleet week in town and with that the big Italian heritage parade that went through our neighborhood. It brought many people together and brought many people to North beach. It’s a great way to invite neighbors to go to see the parade together. You can do that too, invite your neighbors to things you already do!! Our small groups we host at our house have been awesome too and a refresher for everyone who is part of it. So we are doing good here!

Remember we are not in competition with each other we have the same goal bringing people a step closer to Jesus!

Have a blessed week!!

Our week here has been great too with exciting times to connect with people and our beautiful fall summer!! We look forward to see what god has in store for the next few weeks.
