Our beautiful Teegan! What a joy to see your face and hear your voice! We are so happy that you are experiencing God in such an amazing way at the camp, and I'm sure you are loving the sights and the sea. May all of you be blessed and transformed as you honor the Lord in this way. Well done, good and faithful servants!
Hey Teegan! It is so good to hear from you and to see your passion! You are in my prayers, and I love and miss you. Keep on seeking Him! Numbers 6:24 "The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you;the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace." In Christ, Cara
Thank-you Teegan - Thank-you Kurtis - Thank-you for taking time to update us. We are so blessed by what God is doing. Please say hi to Jordan for me - We miss him here at the church and will definitely be praying for that knee. Barry
Hey guys, I'm so proud of you and I feel privaledged to have met you and to be a "part" of your team. My joy is threefold; first because you are in my homeland and with the Greek people, second because you are with my family who I can't say enough good about, and thirdly because you are making me proud of our church here. I am so grateful to God for you. My heart rejoices with you and in the fact that you are such an incredible blessing. Simultaneously, I'm so torn because I wish I was there swimming in the sea, making tzatziki and Greek salad with you girls in that kitchen, visiting with Greek kids while washing dishes outside and generally experiencing your joys alongside you. I've been praying fervently for you and the campers and am hoping that this will not be an isolated blessed experience for you but one that will begin a new chapter in your spiritual walk with the Lord. I'm praying that some of you will see the need to continue to serve God and that He will give you clear direction as to where He might lead you next. I was told at the beginning of this teams forming that you kids were the "cream of the crop" and I have witnessed it firsthand. Now Johnathan shares with me the same feelings regarding you and the service you've been giving. I am overwhelmed by joy and I know it makes God's heart glad as he watches you serve Him. We miss you and can hardly wait to hear the stories, see the pic's and hear all about your time in Greece. It will be awesome for me to be able to talk to someone (other than family) about HM, my family, our staff and home with!! Standing with you, Ifie
Hi Kurtis, everyone: The emotion and the Spirit in Teegan's and Kurtis' latest entries are felt so tangibly. We pray for you daily, especially for your specific requests. I hope I am able to pick up where this awesome experience and the wonderful leadership has left off in parenting my daughter (hi Erin)as she leaves childhood and enters adulthood. It is something I've been contemplating these past 3 days. I feel so proud of you all. I pray for continued health and safety as you prepared for the next part of your journey. All our best, Sherri and Jeff
Teegan and Kurtis we thank-you. It's been so awesome to hear and read what God is doing!!! He is present and does walk among His people and we praise Him for that. We pray that He'll continue to use you, fill, and stretch you. We truly believe that this is just the beginning of great things to come. Allow Him to stretch you in ways that you never imagined and He will do great things in and through you by His grace and power...simply...trust HIM. Lord we pray and ask that you would annoint this team to be filled with your spirit and used for your glory. May they expect you the most Holy God to show up and make your presence known among them. May they arise each day filled with passion and allow you to fan the flame into a burning desire to see you do miracles in the lives of the kids they are interceding for. In Matthew 10 Lord you give encouragement and instruction of your spirit using them to speak the truths of your word into the lives of others...may they step out in faith. We thank-you and praise you Lord for your faithfulness and we anticipated renewed hearts and anwsers to prayer. We ask that you would heal and restore Jordan's knee. Use this leadership to disciple and to help equip this team Lord in training in righteousness and truth. Give them wisdom and discernment. We ask that you would do what only you can do and bring glory to your Great Name. May we your people trust and believe how great is Our GOD!!! In your Holy and Precious name Jesus we pray these things Amen. Eph 3:20 We love you guys and miss you!!! James & Kari Austin, Jesse, Kassidy & McCoy
