What a week! We've had the
opportunity to spend the last week in beautiful—and sunny—Colorado
Springs. We are here for the staff and intern orientation to
Engineering Ministries International. The week has been packed full
of lessons and messages from those who have gone before us. What a
blessing to have these people come alongside us as we prepare to
serve with EMI helping us to not only better understand the history
of EMI but more importantly to see God's hand working in so many
lives in so many different ways to make His name known to all people
and all nations.
We have been given such a
wealth of information throughout our time here and we will continue
to learn more as we look back on the messages shared with us this
week. As we look ahead to the many changes and transitions to come as
we continue to prepare for serving in East Africa it is encouraging
to see other families in the same place and to hear their stories of
'life in the field'. We trust that God is with us and before us on
this journey.
We have felt God confirming
in our hearts this week the work He is calling us to in Uganda. There
will be challenges ahead but we trust that God knows all these things
and will not call us to something that He will not provide a way to
accomplish.
Will you continue to
pray with us for:
- our family as we prepare for these transitions
- and that the lessons God is speaking to us will be woven deeply into our hearts and not easily forgotten.
We are so thankful to be
here and to have this focused time together with other staff,
interns, and volunteers of EMI as we each strive to be obedient to
the call God has placed in our lives. We are excited for the
opportunity and privilege to serve with EMI and to see the ways God's
hand has lead us to this point in our lives.
Now it's time to head home
and give our sweet kids the kisses and hugs we've been missing all
week!!
