We can hardly believe 2021 is almost done?! Another year of contending for the future while being faithful in the present. It’s a pregnant tension. Tis the season to be like the Jesus in Mary….Full of hope and full of discomfort. May we respond in the same way, “My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for He has been mindful of the humble state of His servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed, for the Mighty one has done great things for me, holy is His name!” Luke 1:46-49
We often ask the Lord what fruitfulness looks like in this season…this is how He led us, plus a few family highlights:
- Iris Global gatherings/trainings
- Jean’s ministry trips to NE, OK, TN, CT, MA, PA, NY, IL, FL, VT, and SC.
- Mofele laptop (blessing a young missionary family that we mentor with their dream laptop (Mac powerbook with all the bells and whistles).
- Served as a family for Heartland’s VBS which raised $750 for outreach which was sowed into the next testimony!
- We came alongside Kingdom Life Family Ministries (Des Moines, Iowa) with their evangelism team. It was such an honor to help them launch their monthly outreach program which continues 8 months later!
- Family vacation in Florida where the girls attended Revelation Church’s Arise Kids camp and were powerfully encountered by Holy Spirit!
- We moved into the Honey House in late Aug. We are so grateful for His abundant provision and the incredible Kingdom connections of Kataloma/Honey Bee Ministries Iowa. https://www.honeybeeministriesiowa.org
- Legacy Ministry College launched on Aug 30th! Teisa serves on the board of this tuition free Bible college that is making disciples of the nations with academic excellence and Holy Ghost power. Please reach out to us for more information! https://legacyministrycollege.org
- Teisa also serves as an advisor to Project Ablaze (missionary mobilizers in Asia- mostly in the Philippines). What started as a monthly meeting has blossomed into weekly training and one-on one mentorship with a growing team. https://projectablaze.weebly.com
- Zoom missionary mentorship keeps multiplying! Freely we have received, freely we give. We wish we could share some of the testimonies, but we need to protect and honor these precious laborers who trust us with their journeys. We are serving missionaries in USA, Middle East, France, Poland, Norway, India, South Africa, Eswatini, Uganda, Egypt, Kenya, Malaysia, Australia, and Philippines.
We have preached the Gospel, discipled new believers, and encouraged and empowered churches, leaders, and missionaries around the world! Keep praying with us for long-term visas and provision for our Asia hub/home in Manila!
Celebrating another holiday season in America is an unexpected gift from Him and we are grateful. And what makes it really so special is YOU! Thank you for being a gift in our lives. Please send us your Christmas cards and ways to pray for you. May His presence and presents overwhelm you as you seek Him and reflect His glory. Merry Christmas from our tribe to yours!
