World Mandate '07






Well we have been home for almost 2 full months now!! It's crazy that it is almost over. We are very anxious and ready to get back to Africa though. If anything, this trip has really confirmed out hearts for Africa. We are so sure that we are where God wants us. He has blessed us above and beyond what we have asked for since we've been here, but made sure that we know in our hearts, that we are called to Africa. Thank you, Lord. This past weekend we had the awesome priveledge of going to a missions conference in Waco, Texas. We went last year and loved it, so we were really excited to be able to go again this year. The pictures are from the conference. God's presence was so thick, it just rested on us. The picutre of us and Patrick standing in the front is us about to be prayed for. We were prayed for by everyone there, as missionaires, going back out on the field. It was so cool to be in a place where people were not afraid to cry out for the nations. When the speakers asked everyone to pray, I thought the walls were going to come down. People were crying our in loud voices for the people of Africa, India, Korea, Afghanistan, Iran, Sri Lanka and the list goes on. Missionaries spoke of there experiances and prayed for the nations in the native tongue of the land they served in. No one held back. It was AWESOME. We are filled with passion as we will soon be returning to the field. We are leaving Baton Rouge this Thursday, the 8th. please keep us in your prayers!! We love you all!!

hey you two...i just remembered today that ya'll said ya'll would be in the DC area in Feb. Did I miss ya'll, or have ya'll not gotten here yet, or did ya'll change plans? Regardless, I'm glad we were able to hang some in LA over the holidays.

Mimi may be applying for a two month internship with 'Cup for the summer if 'Cup peeps approve =)
