I slept for two days straight! But also celebrating what God has done and excited about what could be!

Objectives met and prayers answered!

Spiritual Transformation. Throughout the project, through bible study methods, prayer, converstaions and specific topics covered, each participant had the opportunity to grow in his/her personal relationship with God. It is always an incredible gift to see how God is at work shaping each person to be the best version of themselves.

Equipping Disicples. With prepared topics for study and training, it was exciting to see everyone put into practice what was being taught. There is a high value in everything we do to be reproducible and encouraging the practice of tools so that everyone can share when returning home. Getting glimpses of the gifting and strengths in individuals as well as how they contribute to team is a gift to be part of seeing how it also contributes to maturing God’s Bride at large.

Expanding the Work. Through outreach, we met 2 believers, Simon and Patricio, both actually from Chile, who have started attending the house church. The house church continues to be strengthened with vision and purpose to cultivate a community to spur one another on spiriutally as well as a growing vision to impact the nations we live among. I am excited to see new people have a heart to jump in and join the work locally.

If you want to hear more, then let’s set up a time to talk and catch up as this is already quite long! I am very thankful in what the Lord is doing in my own life while getting to live in community with those I love and trust. Some recent books I finished if you need some summer reading: Pray by Neil Cole, a great simple read to encourage prayer life and grow this spiriutal discipline with someone you are discipling. Together for the City by Neil Powell, wanting to further develop how to colloborate and work well with other like minded servants to see our city impacted with God’s kindess and grace. Current song “Abide” by the Rock Music, check it out.

Exciting news on the financial side. I continue to be overwhelmed by the generosity of so many in making the ministry possible as well as serving me practically. Today I picked up my car after loaning it to a family and they replaced my windshield wipers. What a gift! More commitments have been made and now I am only $200 a month short.
