Hi our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!!

Since Caleb is in school Jen and I got more time to meet and talk more about the next season and what God has in store. There are so many things to do and to invest time in, but we want to make sure to really hear God clearly on what he has for this season. Keep us in your prayers for clarity.

We hope you’ve been inspired by Samuels story. Ask God if you are called to be a recruiter to recruit people to go to other places to share the good news!

Have a blessed week

Hi our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week and a relaxing labor day!!

Caleb had his first day of school this week. He really enjoys his school. Its wonderful too that we get in touch with so many other families when dropping Caleb off and get to know them more. The school also already had the first social event so the parents could connect even more. Its such a new and exciting season for all of us and we are excited for all the new relationships that will form! Thank you Jesus

It was also wonderful that we had friends from my hometown in Germany come for a short visit this week. Its always special seeing friends from my old home.

We hope you’ve been inspired by Amys story. Ask God if you are called to youth how you can make a difference in their lives?

Hi our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week!!

Over this last season I was walking along with someone on their journey in loving their neighbor. Through monthly meetups I was able to listen, give feedback, encourage and give advice. Its exciting to see how God is using him in his own community. If you know of people who would love to get more involved in their community by loving their neighbors but would love to learn more on how sent them our way! Just ask them to email us!

We hope you’ve been inspired by Wilfreds story. Ask God what the needs are in a community and place he called you to and how you can help!

Hi our friend

We hope you had a wonderful summer week!!

We got back refreshed from our trip. On Saturday we had the last class in our 6 part love your neighbor class. It was a wonderful time and it was really encouraging hearing the feedback from the different people that were part of it. We are excited to see what God will do with all of this in the future.

We also hope you’ve been inspired by CT Studd’s story. I encourage you to ask God for courage to share your faith with others. Ask God also where you don’t yet fully trust Him and are still holding on to things you should surrender to Him.

Have a blessed week
