Numbers are Up!

I wish I had the patience to take the time to write about all that is going on with our team right now. We've begun having weekly meetings using Skype, that usually last about an hour and a half. That along with our daily correspondence through email has allowed us to get so much accomplished.

Last week we stated some tangible documents that we wanted to begin writing. Chris is working on a team Overview. We set an agenda for our meeting next weekend that Jill typed up for us. We also decided on 5 core values that will represent this mission in Rwanda. They are:

Humility
Compassion
Joy
Community
Submission

Over the next week we will each spend time on one of the values and be able to tell what it means to us. All the things we are working on now will be leading up to the meeting we have on the 17th.

The meeting preparation has been incredibly exciting! We have enjoyed talking and sharing with others the dream that is Rwanda. Initially we were excited hearing that about 15 others will be joining us for the meeting. However, we are now thrilled to share that almost 50 people will be in attendance at this meeting, including our team. God is faithful.

Without saying much more, please be in prayer about this meeting. Who knows what God has in mind, but our will is to do the will of He who sent us.

ALSO... I have begun another blog about a new chapter in Sara and I's life. the site is
