Communication - A Two-Factor Lesson
First, we apologize for our lack of communication! It was our intention to send weekly updates during our time in the Philippines... but in setting up security for everyone's contact info, we used Two-Factor Authentication, which requires a text message with a code sent to your phone in order to access the secure login. We unfortunately failed to realize that in a foreign country, our phones would be unable to receive text messages as usual, thus preventing us from sending emails. We are so sorry that we couldn't send updates real time!We can't wait to share everything that we witnessed God do in the Philippines with you, so please let us know when we can get together to share! We will of course also be sending out stories by email over the next few months while we are back in Colorado.

That being said...
Thank you!!!
Your support has meant everything to what we have done this year!
We especially want to thank you for your prayer support. The biggest thing that God kept showing us was that
prayer matters
. What might feel like nothing really does have the power to change the world.
During our last week in the Philippines, we published a few highlight stories to Facebook. If you missed them, I have republished them on our blog. Click the link below to check them out.

Kids in Ministry
Our kiddos did amazing while we were out! We could feel God's grace over us and them every day - instead of them holding us back, they drew many people to us. Kids are an immediate open door for people to trust you and welcome you in, and common ground to help foster open relationships with the locals.Isaac had his own ministry as well - he loved to spread Baby Joy to all who we encountered!

To Infinity and Beyond
Throughout the last year, God has continued to press the Muslim world into our hearts. We are burdened to reach people in North Africa and the Middle East. In addition, our vision is to reach and encourage missionaries that are isolated due to the type of ministry that they are doing, where they are living, or who simply have no ability to communicate their story.

Short-Term Steps
God clearly told us that our next step is a season of mentorship and training; to reach the hardest places with excellence and longevity, we need to develop a team and spend time with people who have been there, as well as deepening our personal relationship with God. Without a strong foundation, you can't accomplish anything!
