Thank you to everyone that prays for us. It is greatly appreciated while we are in this transition. When you pray, please make sure to lift these things up:

  • Pray that our house will sell. We thought it was going to sell but that has fallen through. So the house is again back fully on the market with hopes that someone needs a house in the new year. We are going to stay in my (Courtney’s) parents house since we don’t really want to go through the move plus we sold most of our stuff in the garage sale.
  • Pray that our monthly support will be raised up. We currently have commitments for 60% of our monthly needs but we can’t leave until we are at 100%. Praise God that we have nearly 100% of our outgoing one-time support needed to actually make the move.
  • Pray that we find the time to complete all that needs to be done including one last seminary course for Courtney which is due at the end of January.
  • Pray for our time in late February/March as we will be headed to Colorado for our prefield training. Its exciting as there will be three other people who are joing eDOT that will be there plus a couple that we went through orientation with.

Thank you all!!!!

This is not from a Christian news group or even a religiously affiliated news group but from the secular Associated Press. They even note that there is a turn away from Christianity happening in Europe especially Sweden where church attendance is ever decreasing. The designer of the label for this brand of jeans says that he is against Christianity because of the history of wars that have been fought in the name of “Christianity”. He is against the organized religion.

This is why we are called to be missionaries in Europe. We are called to help the church in Europe be not just some organized religion but a group of people who have a relationship with their Creator and want to help other Europeans have that kind of relationship too.

We’ve been redone!!!

I have been reading more and more about “blogs” and their usefullness so I redesigned this website to use a blogging tool called “WordPress”. We hope this will allow this site to be an even more informative place for you to come and find out about us and our ministry.

Thanks for stopping by!!
