Thank you so much!

Tonight was the commissioning night for my team to send us out to Cape town, South Africa. We were introduced and prayed for corporately in front of the base along with other teams that will be sent to the nations. It is an awesome experience to be a part of a team ministry. There are so many gifts that God is going to bring out and use in us. I know that the days in Cape Town are going to be full but I am very excited to see what God is going to do. I will try to post updates as regularly as I am able to.

I want to thank all of you for your support to this point! All of the money has been provided for the outreach! Thousands of dollars came in and most of it was totally anonymous. I don't even know how to express my appreciation for everything... Thank you so much to my Church at home, Northview Community, to people on base, and to all of you that gave so generously! Thank you for all of your prayers and please continue

to pray for my team and myself as we continue to prepare to leave for Cape town this Sunday!!

I want to recognize some people at home that I miss and love and that I am increasingly thankful for even though constant communication is difficult : from the Sunday night small group your pursuit for the presence of God still encourages me, all my friends at the BCM I look forward to some ultimate soon, Jeremy and Lauren Ellis who are amazing leaders that pursue Gods heart and allowed me to do so much, Craig and Autumn Moore and church 922 who are radicals for Christ and a constant encouragement to me, the Ferguson family and Bible study who have a powerful revelation of family and hospitality, Josh Lehmkuhl and the monday night group who's lives and visions are consistently increasing and being transformed in the presence of God, everyone that helped with the worship encounter night, the Leonard family, Pastor Mike and Northview Community Church for their constant support and encouragement, Pastor Keith and Heritage Fellowship for faithfulness in facilitating an atmosphere where the Holy Spirit can move and people are discipled, my best friends that have encouraged and

discipled me through their actions Dave, Roger, Bert, and Ian, of course Megan and my family for always loving, supporting, and being included in my best friends, and not to forget the faithful and amazing hardcore adventure night crew!

I know cannot name you all now but you know who you are! You are all such a part in my life and in what God is doing in me and I want to thank you. I believe that God has awesome things in store for each of you. I love you all!
