"I thank my God in all my remembrance of you." Philippians 1:3

My Visa came!! Praise God! This is such a huge answer to prayer. God’s hand has been so evident in this whole process, and He has brought about my Visa in amazing time - just about 5 weeks when it could have been 3 months. Now I’ll be able to join my team in Spain to help with the internship program and have a little time to get my feet under me before the interns arrive. Thank you so much for praying that my Visa would come!

I’m working with the travel agent now to book my flight for May 8. It’s so very surreal that in less than a month I’ll actually be in Spain. Wow! We have 100% support and are all set to go! Thank you so much for every prayer and financial gift you've given to make this happen!

When I got my Visa from the mailbox, I had anticipated I would do a little happy dance. But I didn’t. It was a joyful surprise that I thanked God for but tears didn’t take long to follow. 

Having my Visa in hand made this all so very real. Spain has seemed like a long, distant goal. Having my Visa in hand brought Spain a whole lot closer. All that really stands between me and Spain now is goodbye. And that’s hard. Yet I'm thankful to have such good family and friends to miss. What a blessing!

Yes, I’m sad to say goodbye. At the same time I can say yes, I’m excited to say hello. Hello to Spain and all that God has in store there. I am so excited to see what lies ahead and so thankful for the team I'll be joining! I know that God is faithful, and I trust His goodness and love.

I can’t thank you enough for all your prayers, encouragement, and financial gifts. You play such a crucial role in what God is doing in Spain. Thank you so much! I can't wait to see what He has in store for us!

Come hear musicians and vocalists from local churches. They’ll be performing at Gibbsville Reformed Church on May 18 at 6:00 p.m. The Request Program will be a wonderful time of worship in music and song followed by a free-will offering.

The offering will help the basketball team coming to Spain for the Basketball/English Camp in Cáceres. There are 6 people from the area who are giving of their time to help in this evangelistic ministry in Spain.
