Thank you everyone for your birthday emails and prayers! I had an amazing day- here is quick recap! Jean made me a special breakfast with his Pemba renowned “home fries.” At noon, we helped with the daily village children’s feeding. This allows any child (or adult if really in need) to get a good meal for lunch. I even got to share a brief testimony and pray with the kids before they ate. After the village feeding, we rounded up our 11 boys and took them to the beach for a little festa/party. We played, swam, played, and ended our party with Cokes and cookies. To end the day, my missionary and Mozambican friends threw me a dessert party which was fun….So I felt very kissed by Jesus on my special day!!!
Home at last!!!
Friends, we are finally home!!!! We had a great trip and all our bags made it (always a huge bonus!) The Warriors (5 of our now 12 boys) greeted us at the airport with warm hugs and singing! We are getting settled into our new home, which is fabulous (more on that later)….So we are keeping this post short and sweet and hope to get an update out with the next 2 weeks! Thank you so much for your prayers and love!!!

Jean chasing revival!
With 2 days till we leave for Moz, I took Jean to the airport this morning for his 1 day trip to Florida. He booked his ticket last night as we watched the Florida outpouring online:) We are believing for his back to be healed and his heart/soul to be filled-enough for me too!!!
Crunch time just got crunchier!!!
Hey friends! Looks like we are flying out on the 8th instead of the 10th:) So Jean and I are trying to tie up all our lose ends during the day and watch/engage in the Florida outpouring on GodTV at night! Last night, we got so touched/blasted, we had to almost carry Jean to the car (we watched the revival at a friend’s house). More Lord!!!!!
Paris was awesome! Our outreach on Saturday was incredible- over 30 youth, mostly migrant Muslims, came and hung out for over 5 hours! Jean and I joined with a French interpreter and we prayed over the youth individually, shared the Gospel, and prophesied as the Spirit led. The first young lady gave her life to the Lord and her sister, who was next, was so overcome by the Holy Spirit, she kept crying and laughing for the next 3 hours! Many other youth received prophetic words that ministered powerfully to them. We wrote all the words down, so the youth leaders could do more counseling/prayer to follow up. We also got to minister to the leadership team and heard testimonies of how God was confirming visions, encouraging, and pouring our fresh oil and love!!!
Jesus is amazing! What an adventure to love and serve Him in this hour of visitation….the hungry always get fed!!! “Blessed are those who are hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled!!” Lord, increase our hunger!!! Increase our thirst for the living water and holy wine of the Spirit!
