What did that sign say?


Encountered the presence of God, friendly faces, and lots of encouragement this past week during our travels.


Big thanks to Pastors Harley and Karen Kolterman for inviting us to share ministry at My Father's House, and a lovely meal with great conversation afterwards.



Looks like a sign from God to me :) 

Trusting the Lord we are in our final weeks of itineration and we'll be packing our bags and changing our address soon. 


Saturday evening, Stuart and I enjoyed ministry and fellowship with Pastor Illis Perez and her husband Jacob at Fort Wayne First Assembly's Hispanic service. For the first time, Stuart and I translated for one another. Stuart shared his powerful testimony and I preached on Pentecost and missions. 



I got to tell you, there's nothing better than worshiping God in Spanish! Especially with the likes of Nancy Honeytree and this fabulous worship team.



Last Wednesday we headed over to Lowell First Assembly with Pastor Scott (and Brenda) Weinkauff. We always appreciate the fellowship, prayers, and conversations that accompany itineration. That's what makes it worthwhile.


Another sign from God! 

It's time to go, people. Please partner with us today so we can raise the last 10% of our budget.

Let's make a difference together to proclaim release to the captives of drug addiction and to set at liberty those who are oppressed by the sex trade! 

Thank you for your support!

Teamwork



Yesterday, we braved the weather and headed down to Muncie, IN to share ministry with Pastor Tyrus and Sandra Thompson and the good people at Calvary Christian Center.


We always enjoy talking with those who greet us at our table after service. Sometimes we have serious conversations coupled with prayer requests for family members or friends dealing with alcohol or drug abuse. 

And other times we have more light-hearted exchanges, like this one:

Young woman: Thanks so much for all you do! I could never do that. 
Stuart: We all do what we can. We're all a part of the same team.
Young woman: Thanks for taking one for the team!
Me: LOL




Last week, our travels took us to Spirit Life Assembly in Huntingburg, IN with Pastor Jan and Christy Miller.


This is a picture of missionaries Richard and Gloria McCartney (right) with Jan and Christy (left) because I continually forget to take pictures and this is a good picture of them :)

Besides, the McCartneys were responsible for connecting us with the Millers so we could get a service at Spirit Life (and this is the least I could do to thank them). 

Yes, missionaries do have each other's backs.



If you would like to take one for the team and partner with us to proclaim release to the captives of drug addiction and to set at liberty those who are oppressed by the sex trade, please consider a one-time gift or recurring monthly commitment today.

We can make a difference together!
