Will you be my Valentine? Posted on February 17, 2023 by Todd Reply We got to host the Iglesia del Camino Youth Group Valentine Dinner in our condo’s backyard. Maureen and I shared the 7 things you should look for in a potential partner: 1. Do they love Jesus? 2. Do they love others? 3. Do they respect you? 4. Do they have a vision for their life? 5. Do they make you a better person? 6. Could you spend the rest of your life with this person? And 7. Are they teachable? What would you add to the list?
Mind Changers Posted on February 10, 2023 by Todd Reply I am currently taking some courses through the Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy on my way to a Certificate in Fundraising Management. At the same time, Maureen is taking a 12-week course exploring her identity in Christ with Susan Kusman of “And yet she flourished…” Biblical Counseling. Balancing our work, ministry and course work has been a bit of a challenge, but worth it! “Anyone who stops learning is old, at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young.” -Henry Ford
Game Changers Posted on February 3, 2023 by Todd Reply We often joke that the authentic Texas barbecue at Pappy’s BBQ keeps us on the mission field. Pappy’s not withstanding, good healthcare is a big factor as well. We have always had access to decent care in Guatemala City (about an hour away on a good day), but just recently @vitalmedgt opened up less than a mile from our house. This provides us with local “urgent care like” services. The combo* of good brisket and a nearby place to get checked out will keep us serving here in Guatemala for a while longer! *Those two things plus a sense of calling and an uber-faithful support team.
World Changers Posted on January 27, 2023 by Todd Reply Maureen: “It is a privilege to lead Emily, Isabel, Heydi, Taryn and Ashlyn (on the video) in a Bible study each week. These ladies are already changing the world for Jesus and I’m their biggest fan.”
