Moving Forward!

video

12 more days til I leave for Sweden! Praise the Lord!

My commissioning service was this past Sunday night! It was such an encouragement! My dad got to preach - and that was really very special! All together, it was a special night!

The video I've attached is a conglomeration of pictures from my deputation and Sweden trips. The pictures played while my sister sang the song. I just thought I'd share!

Thanks so much for your continued prayers! I'll keep you posted!

Thrilled for you! Praying for a safe and blessed journey! Thank you for your heart to serve the Lord in this way! (I had the pleasure of meeting you when you came to our church a year or so ago, and I've kept you on our prayer list! I enjoy your updates here and can't wait to read more about when you are in Sweden!)

Blessings on your new adventure in and for Him! May He go before you and lead you all the way,
Katie

“To be a missionary you don't have to cross the sea, you just have to see the cross."

When the Rains Descend

When the Rains Descend
Go ahead and grab your umbrella, because in life, there will be times when you journey through the storms. You see, in this world in which we live, the rains will fall. That is a guarantee. Trials will come - and they are going to come to everyone. Just because you are a Christian, don't think for a moment that life is going to be easy. There will still be pain, sorrow, and heartache. The good news, however, is that, as a Christian, you do not have to weather these storms alone. You have a solid foundation in Christ.

When the Rains Descend is a collection of poems written to be an encouragement to you as you face the downpours of life. May you rest in the Lord and grow closer to Him day by day.
