Hello pastors and friends!
We hope you enjoyed your holiday season and are reflecting on the goodness of God over 2025. It has been a crazy year for our family and ministry, but we are thankful to have seen God’s hand every step of the way.
For the better part of the year, we have focused on healing from a traumatic experience. This has been hard at times, because it felt as if we were being “benched,” so to speak. But God has used this time of waiting to grow our faith like never before. We praise Him for it!
All of that being said, we are excited to announce that we are closing out this year in our own home in South Africa! We arrived back home on December 11th, and have thoroughly enjoyed being back with our South African children and the people God has called us to!
As we re-enter ministry and routine in South Africa, we covet your prayers. We are praying for the Lord’s direction and for perfect peace as we take our next steps. After much prayer and counsel, the difficult decision to not return to Motherwell has been made. It is our hope and prayer that God will provide a national leader to continue Fellowship Baptist Church. Until He does, we will work closely with the young men standing in the gap. We are also very thankful for Missionary Mark Coffey, who has been preaching and taking men from a neighboring church to worship with our people. We understand this is God’s church, and we believe He will continue to build it!
In the meantime, we will continue to serve and survey potential new areas for a future church plant. We appreciate your prayers and support!
Lastly, thank you to every person who donated monetarily to our family for Christmas this year. Our family can look back and focus on the love of God’s people and the good memories made, rather than just a scary circumstance that happened. We couldn't do that without you!
