Oh Spring sweet Spring! How I have missed you! It is beyond
amazing to step outside without a coat, scarf, boots, hat and ear muffs on and
enjoy a nice warm breeze after quite a long bitter winter!
With the arrival of spring comes some really exciting things
for Tony and I.
Church Planting Ministry is really picking up these days so
Tony is no longer at his part time job. Between getting sermons ready, meeting
with people in our community, and preparing for a summer full of mission
teams-he has had his hands quite full.
We had our first ever mission team two weekends ago-YAY!
We had a group of nearly 35 children & parents from
Trinity Baptist Church that helped us prepare our local community garden. They
did it all from raking to painting pickets to spreading hay. We were extremely
thankful not only for all the help getting the tasks accomplished but also the
help in building relationships with the local garden leaders. We look forward
to continuing to cultivate these relationships over the summer with our own
plot in this garden.
At the end of the month we will be heading down south to meet with a church about a potential partnership in the future with our church plant. We’re excited that other people are excited by what God is doing in Cleveland! Please pray this would be an encouraging time both for us and for the church.
I am now off to make my first ever attempt at a bunny
cake…..not sure how pretty of a bunny it will be, but it will be one tasty
bunny! No worries there will be pictures! May each of you have a great Easter
and be reminded that we serve a God that has conquered our sin and death-Praise
the Lord!
