The Ultimate Adventure!


The Ultimate Adventure!

This is a picture of the seats were Teresa, Aunt Camille, and I usually sat on Sunday mornings in Living Word Baptist Church. It was taken after The commissioning service Sunday night. We really liked setting there, the seats were so comfortable. We were surrounded by church family and very long time friends. Life was very good on these seats. We did not want to leave these seats. “But God.”

Yes, we have left these seats and have started “The Ultimate Adventure” just like the Awanas T&T song.

“We are off on the Ultimate Adventure,
Trusting Jesus all along the way,
To the truth of God’s Word I will surrender,
No matter where I am from day to day.
In the sky, undersea, in the wild, Christ with me,
Here at home, around the world,
His love is clear to see.
Won’t you come along with me, on the Ultimate Adventure!
We will train for the mission He has for me.
As I read His Word and pray, He gives direction,
As I follow Him each and every day.”

So as of today Aunt Camille will be “here at home” and Teresa and I will be “around the world” yet we all are on the Ultimate Adventure. As Teresa and I “train for the mission He has for us” we (plus hundreds of others) will be reading “His Word” and “praying” as “He gives direction” and we “follow Him each and every day”.

As Teresa and I take the finial steps on our way to
the mission that He has for us in Romania, many people will be praying for us as we go and tell the
things we have heard about Christ to followers who can be trusted to tell others of these same truths (see 2 Timothy 2:2).
We need your prayers, as we will miss you even more then you will miss us. Yes, I do already miss those seats and the people they represent; “But God” has plans for our lives, as He does for yours. Teresa and I have chosen this day to serve God, who are you going to chose, self or Jesus? We (Teresa, Aunt Camille, and I) know it is Not an easy choice to make.
