27 days and counting-down!






















Our house got smaller.....

Our journey begins this month by putting everything we own in Juan’s (my "adopted" father's)pick up truck and taking it to Santa Ana California, so that the 12 boxes can be shipped to Costa Rica in the middle of January 2010. There is no telling really when they will get there because the container doesn’t leave the coast until it is full. Because of low business the shipping company has closed the warehouse so now we have to pay for the storage, but God is good and this company is willing to give us a break in the price because of it.

On our trip we will be visiting and saying “good bye" to friends and family in Phoenix, and San Diego and at last in Tucson, Az.

As our departure time approaches we feel very, very, very excited, the uncertainty of what God has for us is as certain as the growth we experience… the Lord is awesome!!!!

The prayers of the people, the love of the people, the care of the people, it is all such a blessing to us. It humbles us to the point of our bended knees and we thank God for such a wonderful spiritual family. We are sooooo blessed!

27 days is all that is left, pray with us dear reader. Bring this ministry to the throne of grace and pray that God will use it mightily for the furtherance of His Kingdom…

We will be coming back (Lord permitting) Tuesday the eighth, only to turn around and go to Juarez Mexico on the tenth where we will be serving with Global Advantures on the Shoe box trip.

Please keep coming back to see what God is doing and also take advantage of the study tools on the right of this page.

Lord bless you and until next time…

  1. Whichever of you is posting this blog....it is Brilliant!!!! You have pictures taking us each step of the way in your journey, commentary on how the plans are taking shape and even study tools to take advantage of...Adrian Rogers is an anointed teacher that God has raised up in our lifetime....it is a shame if you don't log into his teachings...thanks for posting Love Worth Finding with Adrian Rogers.
    As you send constant reminders, it also helps us to hold you up in prayer.
    God bless you richly in the work in Juarez and all the stops you'll be making before heading off to Costa Rica.

  2. Sending love, prayers and blessings to you both, for the rest of this month as you travel to California, Arizona, Mexico and finally, Costa Rica. God has blessed you in an awesome way for this mission. I know He will continue to do so. Keep looking to Him for "the next steps" you'll take as you meet, teach and care for new friends as you share His word. It will be an exciting time. I will miss your loving, beautiful faces, your smiles and hugs too. I hope I'll see you this weekend (Sat. night) before you head out. If not, you're both always on my heart. Until we see each other again,
    In His loving name,
    Joan
