Promise Kept

I am back as promised with the next except from our Christmas letter.

Our move in the summer of 2009 and then into the extended stay hotel, began a new phase of ministry.  We reaffirmed a single lady’s decision not to abort a pregnancy and baptized her in our bathtub.  We were a vessel by which a man recommitted his path to God, possibly fulfilling a call into ministry.  Through the gift of home cooking and hospitality, we fed a family in need, honored new parents and new friends, and were an answer to prayer for a holiday meal. 

The opportunity to privately pray for or to pray with individuals as we cross their paths and learn of their lives has been a privilege.  We have encountered the unchurched and children, struggling believers and non-believers, gays and grandmothers, verbal abusers and controllers, college students and tourists, mothers and fathers, Wicken members and singles, as well as, drug dealers and exotic dancers.

More later ...
