Last night we had the opportunity to share our call with the missions committee from Apple Valley Baptist Church (the church where we are members). It was a very encouraging experience to be able to share with members of our home church. Hopefully, we will soon be able to share with the entire church family.
We also had the opportunity to meet another family who will be serving God abroad. Jay and Jackie will be heading to North Africa in June, and it was very encouraging to have a chance to speak with a couple who is a bit farther on the path of support raising.
It was also amazing to see how God prepares individuals; through specific life experiences, gifts, and talents, to perform a specific role. This was not only encouraging to me as we learned about their calling into the mission field, but it was reassuring that our calling did not need to conform to what other people are doing. God is calling US to Vienna; He has given us a passion for the people and mission of VCS, He has provided opportunities in our lives to be professionally prepared for this call, and he has opened doors in a way that provide a smooth transition into the mission field. It is very exciting to see God working in the lives of so many people in different ways.
Please keep Jay and Jackie in your prayers as they continue to raise their support for their work in North Africa.
