Thanksgiving





Wow, I can not believe how quickly time flies by. As I've mentioned before there is a One Story conference happening in the base here in San Jose. Last week our DTS participated. It's such a cool way to share the gospel. We're taught how to accurately and Biblicaly take stories from the Bible and tell them in a story form. This is especially helpful in communities where there isn't yet a Bible translated. Telling stories orally is a major part of many societies. If you want to learn more check out: ywamonestory.org

Since there are many people here on the base we had our Thanksgiving a couple weeks before. It's amazing how one is able to go into a place without knowing anyone and finding a family. As a family we took time as a base to reflect on all the good things God has given us: our new base, our staff, and the personal things God has given us each individually. Fun times call for fun pictures :)

On this Thanksgiving I just encourage you to take personal time with God and give him thanks for the things he's done in your life, the things he is already doing, and the things he's going to do. He really is awesome.
