Our time in Oregon has been fantastic. We’ve been able to
get involved in so many ways with Keizer Community Church. Alex and I are
gearing up to teach the summer Kids Wednesday Night program, be praying that we
will be able to make an impact on these young hearts and minds. We’ll be
watching a video series that shows what it’s like to grow up as a missionary
kid; then we’ll be teaching from the Word to challenge the kids to examine
their own lives. Our hope is that they will focus on serving God with their
lives.
I was able to work
with some lovely women to put together a Ladies’ Tea, which was a little hectic
but really fun. This last Saturday it all came together and went off without a
hitch.
The best part of all is the many families we’ve had over for
dinner. It’s been interesting to talk with people in the setting of our own
home, we’ve loved hearing their stories and spending time with them. Another
fun and practical thing we get to do is a CPR class that the church is hosting.
I’m looking forward to having this training because we’ll most likely be the
closest thing to medical help in the village we’ll end up in.
Praise God, we’ve reached 83% of our monthly goal! We’ve
come to appreciate the body of Christ in so many new ways. Thank you to all of
our friends that have gotten involved in our life!
