GYPSIES, THE WORD, AND EASTER.
The last two Monday visits to our usual Gypsy village have been very encouraging and seasoned with much grace. Two weeks ago, we started structuring our time with our friends differently, as we believe the Lord is leading our team to take the next step. We are still sharing various bible stories and parables within […]
A SMALL GLIMPSE: Pictures
As promised, here are a few pictures from this past weekend. For more, click here. Enjoy the sweet faces and some of my favourite moments !
GOD HAS TO DO IT.
Visiting three different villages over the course of seven days, including one sleepover, was certainly a record for me thus far. Evidently, my brain came to a grinding halt by day seven, when I accidentally started responding to people in French, even though I have not heard a single person speak French since leaving Canada. […]
SLEEPOVER, Take Two
Today, I was hoping to provide a more in-depth update from the past few weeks, but apparently, time is not on my side, so I will be keeping this post brief. A number of weeks ago, you may remember me mentioning our Gypsy team was scheduled to sleepover in a village a couple hours outside […]
THE COUNT DOWN IS ON!
With only 5 hours remaining before the Undaunted: Overcoming Obstacles and Opposition to the Advance of the Gospel simulcast goes live, I am very excited for what the Lord has in store for the all of us who will be tuning in. Although I may be many miles away from my church family, some of whom […]
HIS WORD IS ALIVE AND ACTIVE
[Note: the birthday party and sleepover mentioned in the previous post did not happen yesterday, as was planned…we have tentatively rescheduled the celebration for a couple of weeks from now.] Today started off as most other Mondays do – the alarm ringing, coffee pressing, rolled oats eating, and quieting timing. It was gloomy, cold, and […]
LONELINESS
Do not wish away the lonely moments, as they have the potential to be some of the sweetest moments you will ever experience. I feared loneliness, I hated feeling lonely, loneliness reminded me of how much I missed so many loved ones, loneliness made me want to flee, loneliness produced self-pity and sadness in me. […]
GOD AT WORK
This post has been milling about in my head for a number of days now, and I have finally disciplined myself long enough to sit down and type out some of these thoughts. Each day, it seems, I am encouraged by seeing God at work in the hearts of the people around me, and consider it a […]
CROSS 2015: OVERCOMING OBSTACLES AND OPPOSITION TO THE ADVANCE OF THE GOSPEL
On February 27, starting at 7pm, there is an opportunity to watch a special live simulcast, hosted by CROSS For the Nations, focusing on overcoming obstacles and opposition to the advance of the Gospel. With speakers like Platt, Piper, Deyoung, Anyabwile and Stiles teaming up and speaking at this event, I believe we are in for some […]
THE GYPSIES…Four Months Later.
The Gypsy team and I are nearing the end of a very intentional week of prayer and extended times meeting together, seeking the Lord for 2015. In doing so, part of our time together today was spent recalling what the Lord has done just over the past few months, which has left me in awe. […]
