Late night pondering...my thankful heart overflows!


As I sit here tonight overwhelmed with feelings of gratefulness, feelings of thankfulness to those who have said yes to our family over the last 6 years that we have been missionaries and our almost 10 years of marriage! 




Those who have prayed for us and with us. 

Encouraged our hearts to keep going

Cried with us as heartache happened. 

Laughed with us in the most happy of times. 

Given to us in our greatest hours of need

Sacrificed their own time and money for our family.



As we minister to people, the ones who have said yes to us are there with us. Those who have sown into us sow into those we serve. It is a crazy awesome circle that the Lord creates and we get to be apart of it! 


I don’t know how to say thank you to those who have given of themselves to our family. There are times my heart feels like it could burst towards you and towards the Lord for using you in our lives. 




This is my/our prayer for each one of you...Ephesians 1:15-21 

 Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers: that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.

??Questions??


Where/When are we going...Why Kansas City first...?


We have just as many questions as everyone else!

As we continue to pray about our dream Hephzibah the Lord is graciously opening doors for us and closing others. He is so faithful. We are overwhelmed by His goodness. 



Where/When are we going... 

Our Summer Schedule:

We are going to Kansas City in May. We will be getting a storage unit and dropping our stuff off. We’ll only be there about a week, then we are off to Chicago to celebrate Danny’s parents 50th wedding anniversary!!! (Amazing we get to be there to celebrate with them-so so excited!

We will be in Chicago for about 3 weeks, Minnesota for 3 weeks, and Nebraska for 2 weeks sharing our vision with friends and family and inviting new people to co-labor with us. 

We will settle back down in Kansas City end of July/August time. 



Why Kansas City first...

This season we are going into would be similar to what an overseas missionary does when they come back for a year from the mission field. We will be continuing to raise support as full time missionaries, spend extended times in prayer and fasting, rest, and refocus on what the Lord is calling us to.   

The time we spend in Kansas City will be a focused time of prayer and fasting for Brazil. We are asking the Lord to make it clear when we are to go to Brazil, who we are going specifically for, and inviting people to join us!!! 


I will continue to update as we go along! 



Some important prayer points for us...

Transition time- especially for our kids
Travel Safety- lots of time spent in our van (our van needs some work before we leave!) 
Finances- that our every need would be met
Our hearts- stay connected to the Lord and each other
