Colorado or Bust!

Tonight, we had a prayer/send off night for one of our favorite engaged couples. Mustang and Scrum (ΑΓΩ) will be flying out tomorrow for their Youth For Christ orientation. It was a night for worship, prayer and embarrassing moments (I feel as though anytime Scrum's dad made a comment Mustang was blushing; dads will do that to you). It is very inspiring to be witnesses to their obedience to God's call for their life. I challenge you all to keep them in your prayers and to seriously consider cutting back your Starbucks habit and using that money to help support their mission. While they haven't been officially accepted into the program (they find the out in approximately 2 weeks after their return) they are still working toward raising money for their trip.

For those of you unable to make it, the two of them are en route to Colorado to participate in and orientation to prepare them for a potential departure to the mission field of South Africa or Swaziland. They can explain the details better about what they will be doing specifically but it is some legit stuff in the name of God. I've been excited for them ever since Mustang mentioned the idea of getting involved in it. I have no doubt that they will be accepted into the program and that God will provide the means to make the trip happen. It's really cool to see God moving so obviously in their lives and it should be nothing short of an encouragement to the rest of us that God has set aside some sick plans for our lives.

If you would like to help them out financially they are looking for people to be monthly contributors or if you are afraid of commitment, Mustang is selling Africa tote bags for $15 and trucker caps for $20. Ridiculously stylish!

Reminding you to be consistently praying for your fellow sister and brother in Christ.
