We see God’s goodness over and over as we seek to obey Him and walk out His will daily. It blows our minds when we sit down to reflect and list out just some of the highlights from 2024. It is mind blowing to us that you are praying, supporting, financial partnering and reading this update right now. Thank you for your unwavering commitment to the work of the Lord through our family and the army of saints we represent worldwide.
We are in awe that as we say YES to the Lord, the multiplication in the ministry is more than we could have dreamed. We are humbled that God lets us do what we do as a family and has entrusted us with incredible ministry! We are in awe of all that He is doing around the world as we raise up nationals overseas for the work of the ministry and young adults in the states who have a heart to GO! The nationals are going further than we could ever go and reaching more people than we could ever reach.
We are heading to Asia and back to Africa in 2025! It’s going to be a great year as we expect God to do great things! Your year-end support would be so helpful and launch us into the new year and sustain the ministry locations ensuring they continue to flourish and be fruitful for God’s glory.
