Discipleship Getaway

in

For the Easter Weekend Tathiana and I took a long weekend trip with our discipleship groups and some others that we have led in the past on a getaway to have some time together and to study some foundational truths about the gospel. 

The weekend went well. It was a time of hanging out and Bible study about our FORGIVENESS, LOVE, ACCEPTANCE and CONTINUOS TRANSFORMATION through the gospel of God's grace in Christ. We always try to find quality time like this as we seek to establish these young Christians and equip the older ones to know how to lead others in their relationship with Christ.

Please pray that each of us will be motivated by these 4 truths to help others who need the same forgiveness, love, acceptance and transformation!

We're Expecting...

An update on April Fools day, but its for real! We found out this week that Tathiana is 8 weeks pregnant! We wanted to begin our family soon, even this year. Apparently God wanted that, too.

We are happy and a bit stunned as we think about the upcoming changes. So many students have made their excitemente known. I guess when you wait 5 years people start getting anxious for some news. 

Please pray for Tathiana and the baby's health.
