Read about it here! We need donations AND people to come help facilitate just after Christmas for a week. Sign up here!
- The Lord has provided so faithfully this year. Would you pray about partnering with me? I am specifically praying for monthly partners but also need some people who can give just a bit now. I am headed to Thailand in just a few weeks then it’s back to Peru to get to those orphans!

- One story from Zimbabwe: I had so many moments on this trip that were…crazy. One day we were picking up some translators and were stopped on the side of the road for no more than three minutes when all the sudden a tow truck pulls in front of us with 6-7 men coming to our vehicle. They quickly put a spiked boot on the tire so that we couldn’t move. They said we couldn’t park there. So I got out of the car and negotiated with them to take it off. They reluctantly did and expected some bribe money. None was given. I got back in the car, ready to go and ….BANG! Someone had hit us from behind. I got out to find a man was pushing a cart loaded with tomatoes and fruit and didn’t see our car. He rammed into the back of us and tomatoes were spread all over the street! #onlyinafrica We had so many of these moments, but despite all these laughable moments, God moved mightily! Several found him for the first time and many were encouraged and strengthened.
I am so in awe of all that God has done this year. It doesn’t really matter where you are…God is active and moving. Watch for Him!
