He's Back...

Our fearless team leader is back! Hamish arrived home early Friday morning and we were able to catch up with him as a team on Saturday. It was great to debrief about his time in the States and to be back together as an entire team.

As you may remember, Hamish left for this fundraising trip with fourteen meetings. It was our goal and our prayer to get twenty meetings during his two weeks in the States. God is so faithful. As soon as Hamish was on his way, we began to hear back from more churches and before we knew it, his fourteen meetings had grown to twenty!

We saw God's hand all over this trip and it served as such a reminder to us of God's faithfulness. We prayed for twenty meetings and God provided. We prayed for gas prices to go down during Hamish's time of travel and they did. We prayed for safety and energy as Hamish was waking up as early as 3:30 in the morning to make it to meetings and traveling all over the mid-west for a couple of meetings a day.

Now, we are praying as these churches and mission commitees are deciding if a partnership with our new church is possible for them right now. We know that God will provide, even if it is different than we ever imagined. Will you join us in praying for the partnerships that will help our new church get started?
