If you are singing the Boyz II Men song, “End Of The Road” after seeing this title, I’m sorry. I’m especially sorry If you can’t get it out of your head now. Hopefully even though you can’t let go…it’s unnatural… Ok, I’ll stop now.
If you don’t understand that reference, don’t worry, you didn’t miss anything if you missed 90’s R&B.
Normally, coming to the end of the road might be a bad thing. For us though, it feels good to be approaching the end of this particular road. We are finally approaching the end of the road of our partnership development with individuals and churches. We praise God that we are now at 90% of our required monthly support.
Please pray that God brings in the remaining 10% over the next few months, so I can schedule more international trips to train pastors. The need hasn’t gotten any less for pastors to be trained and I’m excited to have more opportunities to pass on Bible Study skills to pastors around the globe.
If you haven’t yet partnered with us financially, you could be the one to get us to 100%!
FAMILY UPDATE:
Laura is staying busy with home school with Avianna (how can she be a junior in high school?). She has enjoyed spending some time helping at a local ministry called Love Inc (Love In the Name of Christ). Laura recently began leading a Bible study at church using the Pathways Careful Bible study method. Jackson moved into an apartment in Pella, closer to his job and is getting very involved in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Makayla is back at school in Minneapolis, working hard for her junior year of college. Avianna is doing great with school, working and caring for and milking her goats.
