Hi all!
It has been one week since we left the Tohono O'odham Indian Reservation for home. Already, it weighs heavy on my heart leaving behind the people I have come to love and the place that feels like my second home. God is at work there among the nation and we are starting to see the fruit of the labor. We are reaching to new villages and returning to old ones that before did not trust us to come. We are seeing God change the hearts and lives of some that we have prayed so earnestly for. We are meeting new contacts and making new relationships, welcoming new friends into our family. We are reuniting with those from long ago and carrying on relationships built on trust alone. We are seeing how God alone can carry a family overwhelmed with grief, giving them hope of seeing their loved one once again. We see how God can take a small child and lead him to be a great young man when all is against him. We also see how He can carry our own team when we are tired, sick and weak, giving us strength to carry on His work. God is great and he is working in and around us everyday, I praise Him for all His wonderful mercies.


2 Corinthians 4:1
Therefore, since God in his mercy has given us this ministry, we never give up.

I challenge you to carry it on in your own community, be on mission right where you are. We all have been given a ministry in our daily lives. God Bless.
