I struggled to find something inspiring or emotional to post
as my last blog entry before going into China so I decided to keep it short so
I wouldn’t force anything that wasn’t genuine.
Simply put, we’re all going to be intentionally doing without Internet for the
month so as not to interfere or put our ministry in danger. Our eight
month debrief is over (I got to jump off a 50-foot waterfall today, though!)
and it’s time to pour out to the nations again.
The February ministry in Mindanao was awesome, by the way. We lived at an
orphanage and worked with the kids, yes, but also with many other
ministries. Construction projects, prison ministry, college discipleship
and basketball ministry (yes, there is such a thing) were among them. The
Lord kept us safe the whole time we were on the island and I want to thank you
for your prayers. We never saw any real evidence of the guerrilla war
that’s going on there.
Please, if you have connections with my family, encourage them and pray for
them as well. I know they will rarely ask for it but appreciate it
immensely. What can I say? I’m just so loved and they worry when
they know I’m in such a place where they can’t find out how I’m doing.
Love you all! As you pray for me (more so the ministry we’re in), know I’m still fighting for you as well.
