One Year!

Happy Birthday to our big one year old! Titus has been such a blessing to our family - he brings us so much joy and laughter. We have loved every bit of this past year, and we are excited to begin the toddler years with him. To celebrate his birthday, we had a theme of "The Very Hungry Caterpillar"...if you have been around Titus for any amount of time you know just how appropriate this theme is for him. This little boy can (and will) eat anything! Titus enjoyed his first birthday party...snacking on lots of food, decorating a caterpillar bookmark, destroying his caterpillar cake, and playing with his precious friends. He even ended the day with his first steps!

So we began the 2 hour drive back to Port Charlotte. About an hour from home those tricky braxton hicks contractions were getting pretty regular and by the time we had returned home they were coming less than 5 minutes a part!

Once we arrived at the hospital, it was confirmed that I was indeed in labor (2 1/2 weeks early). I was so blessed to have a special childhood friend be my labor and delivery nurse. Thank you Jen for making this experience so much mo...

We currently have two groups of believers that have been meeting regularly (Kilimary and Besatra). They are at an exciting part of their journey to becoming a reproducible church. They are about to finish learning (studying and memorizing) the evangelism track of stories, and are ready to go out to nearby villages and share the stories! In the next month they will be starting a new set of discipleship stories focused on developing their understanding of themselves in context of the Church. Last week, Grant, Doug, and Nathan headed down south to hold another evangelism event in two villages we have been developing relationships for several years (Andremba and Tanantsoa). Both villages have shown great trust in Grant, and have expressed their readiness to hear about God. The guys spent the past week going through the evangelism story set (20 stories from creation to Christ) with both villages. Both villages gathered their people to hear the stories (about 40 in the small village of Tanan...
