Kisima Community Center

Praise God for our very first community meal as

Kisima Community Center!

January 8th we invited the people

of the community for a big lunch

and the Lord brought 

37 people!

What a blessing to be able to share the Gospel

and eat together.

We pray this is the just the beginning of many wonderful 

things the Lord wants to do. 

 

TCK Camp

 Matthew had the amazing opportunity to attend TCK (third culture kid) Camp the last week of December/first week of January. It's intended for kids from our organization who are teenagers. Last year he attended with Madylanne but this year he attended by himself for the first time...flying to our capital city on his own to join up with a group of sponsors and teens who then traveled together to their camp destination. This was a big first for him! And for Mom and Dad, too. We are grateful God kept him safe and for the people along the way who helped. He had a great week at camp growing closer to the Lord and meeting new friends...I see him reading his Bible in the evenings and we are using his new devotional at the breakfast table in the mornings before school. I am so thankful to the Lord for how He is growing our children in Him, and for the people who come along side to help along this journey.

Merry CHRISTmas!

This is us Christmas Day...

so blessed to talk to Madylanne!

Our Savior is born and

our hearts rejoice!!

the boys

This was my view at the breakfast table recently on Friday, cereal day. 

Matthew and Micah were VERY excited to 

get their favorites from Dad.

Here they are on the last day of school this term. 

Christmas break, here we come! 

Micah is dressed up in his US gear 

for the parade at the 

International Food Festival.

Christmas is Worshiping Jesus

How do you prepare your hearts for worship?

We celebrate Advent...

there are a few different ways to do this, I'm sure.

Each day this month we will read a passage at breakfast 

as a family to help our hearts be ready, 

and on Sundays we light a candle and sing and pray together.

Come

Let us Worship Jesus!!

Let us adore Him!

  Light of the world, 

 Prince of Peace, 

 Messiah, 

 Lamb of God, who takes away our sins, 

the Truth, the only way to a relationship with God the Father.

May we make space in our hearts and schedule to worship the King of Kings.

Pumpkin Cookies

 What a gift to have a can of pumpkin for baking pumpkin cookies

 this Thanksgiving! I am thankful for the team of volunteers 

who came in October and shared pumpkin with us! 

Usually we boil and mash it so having it ready in a can was really nice.

We are grateful for pumpkin yummies!

A trunk full of love

Friday November 28th we took 13 Christmas boxes 

of food and supplies to the therapy group.

We are grateful to my friend for her family business 

who packed everything up for us.

We are grateful to FBC Burden for their generous gift!

And we are grateful for being able to give these boxes 

and explain about the greatest gift of all, Jesus Christ.

Please pray for the families to read the book of John 

which was placed in their bags.

Pray for the Lord to draw their hearts 

to Jesus through His Word.
