Precious Moments: Our three nieces all together and getting acquainted. Jersey Rae (9 mo), Tiana (13 mo) and Martina (9)
In Hebrews 11:6 we learn that God rewards those who diligently seek Him. In the Gospels Jesus teaches that the greatest commandments are to love God and to love your neighbor as yourself. James writes that pure religion, pure worship, is centered on serving the helpless, the rejected. In Colossians 3 Paul encourages a heavenly focus, not earthly. What is the meaning of LIFE? To be diligent in seeking God, to live with eyes and ears perceiving the needs of the people around you and to have your hands and feet ready to serve. To share the love of Christ. John 10:10 - Abundant life. This is a newsletter updating you on the happenings of my journey, as I learn more about what it means to live LIFE!

Titus 3:4-5 But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit.
A PRAISE REPORT Summer work teams accomplished many projects and experienced a fruitful trip. Safe travels for our friends and family who came for the wedding. A memorable week leading up to the wedding, and the Lords provision for the wedding itself and all that it entailed. Three great weeks in the States. Safe travels back to Jamaica and settling in.
