New Beginnings

Sunday we were able to revisit our ministry partners at New Beginnings Ministries. We loved worshipping with them. During worship, Annalise said, "I feel God." Later, when Lisa asked her more about it she explained, "I just felt in my heart that Jesus was holding my hand."

It was exciting to share what God is doing in the Philippines and our plans to return. A bonus was that we also shared in a Thanksgiving meal with them following the service. The girls were all excited to be able to talk about their photo albums and explain the various items Lisa had set out on a display table.

Our family was blessed by the encouragement and support we received. We recognize that it is only through the prayers and support of people at home that we are able to go and minister so far away.

Grace,
Tom

P.S. The story of how we became friends with the people of New Beginnings is one of those divine "coincidences" that we sometimes encounter. See the blog entry for Sunday, May 27, 2007 for a more complete description.
