The Construction Team

The Construction Team 

The finished product!

Earlier today we took the new missionary family (Joey, Courtney and their kids) and Granny, an 80 year-old lady who joined the Construction team – all from Tennessee, US – on a tour of Living Hope as a whole. It was so sweet to see Granny (who has never left the US in her entire life) and the kids ‘reactions to the extreme poverty they were exposed to. They tried to make sense of it all, but also trying to be in it. The kids got right involved at Kids Club and Granny was extremely observant and asking all the right questions. But as much fun as we had on the tour, we sadly had to say goodbye to the Construction Team that has been working tirelessly to replace the roof of the multi-purpose. We had dinner with them at the Team House tonight and had some incredible conversation about purpose and calling and how to discern God’s calling through desires. Deep, right? But that is one of my and Tim’s favorite topics. We truly enjoyed having this manly group here and look forward to see what God is going to do in all their lives! Thank you all and God bless

New Missionaries!

New Living Hope Missionaries!

Today we welcomed new long-term additions to the Living Hope volunteer family. It’s an entire family from Tennessee – all six of them! The father, Joey, a former business owner, will play a key role at Living Way, specifically in entrepreneurship/enterprise development. The mother, Courtney, will help the family settle in over the next few months and possibly help in palliative care ministries, as she is a registered nurse. They come with four kids, aged 1 to 9. They are a riot, and we already love them dearly, and know that they will also be an important part of Living Hope’s ministries over the next 3 years or more.
