Thank you for your continued prayers as we travel. On Wednesday, we were in Alabama for a meeting before closing up our two-week stretch of missions conferences and meetings. This past Sunday, we had the opportunity to be with two different churches – one in North Georgia, and the other in Tennessee. This past week, we also heard from the church we were with on the previous Sunday night saying they were going to start supporting us! Additionally, We heard from another church earlier today that voted to start supporting us as well. We are excited to be this much closer to the field.
Please be praying for our meetings in 2018. Presently the first quarter of 2018 is completely booked and we have 4 openings left for the second quarter of next year (2 in April, 2 in July). Please pray that the Lord will open up doors for us to present in churches, especially for Easter Sunday night (April 1st) in Georgia.
On Saturday, our home church hosted a special parenting seminar, and we had the opportunity to attend. While we are not yet parents, we greatly appreciate the leadership of the church to provide parents (and future parents) with tools and teaching to raise godly families. Because the session was recorded, you can now watch it here.
We are also excited about the upcoming Southeast Summit that is going to be in Atlanta and the Northeast Summit that is going to be in Boston. As preparations are underway, you will not want to miss this premiere event on world evangelism. To get details about speakers and the Summit itself, be sure to go to https://www.ogsummit.com/
