2015 Plans Underway


2015 Plans Underway

New ideas, goals and blessings

One of the great things about swapping calendars each year is that you get to start with a clean slate.  It is like Paul said, "...But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." (Phil 3:13-14).  Even this new style update has been something that I have been working on for quite some time.  By using MailChimp I should be able to track and manage our emails better and by cleaning up my email list some of you are getting this for the first time in a long while.  It is to our great encouragement and blessing that we currently have less than 20% support remaining to raise to get us back on the field.  (If you have a church that might like to join us in this ministry please let me know and I can make the contact.)  We have already started our travels and soon we will be headed back north for a visit to Maine which will include a stop by the Brazilian Consulate of Chicago.  We have to complete Levi's permanent visa process by applying in person.  All of these things will be covered more in depth in our next Newsletter Update.  (Please respond if you want to receive our Newsletter and have not received one in the past 6 months as we still have many bad address.)  Our prayer is that the Lord's encouragement to us is also shared by many others so that we can all reach this dark world with the light of Christ.  He is the one who constantly gives us a new start to "press on" and the growing hope to "win the prize."   
Levi Needs some help but he already takes a pretty good selfie.
How sweet (and easy) it is to build a gingerbread house.  All you need is kids and a kit.
