Our "REBAR"

The photo above, I use as wallpaper on my computer. It reminds me of something we often see in Guatemala, bricks being reinforced with rebar. The people surrounding us praying for us and all those we leave here at home that are supporting us, praying for us and have helped us prepare for this journey, are our "REBAR". Without all of you we would be like the bricks on the bottom, ready to crumble and fall. 2 Corinthians 12:9 reminds us, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness" Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weakness, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 

We appreciate your friendship, support, and especially your prayers as we spend one final night in North America. We pray for the other families that are preparing to go out and we pray for the summer teams that God would use us all in ways we cannot imagine. We also pray for the Church that meets at Central, that God would identify and make known the man that will occupy the pulpit, that Central will continue to grow as a missionary church, and that those that occupy the seats at Central would understand that this building is a placed to be renewed and refuel, for them to take what they hear outside of those walls. I pray that we all become people that: "love God, love others, and make disciples". 

God Bless you all! We love you!
