Hello dear family and friends! It has been way to long. My apologies. Life had taken it's toll lately. No excuses just a brief apology.
Rob has been working hard on providing crucial technical support to LAM. Often in missions we forget about the "behind the scenes" work it takes to run an organization as large as LAM. There are countless people behind a desk that don't receive the recognition of serving in a foreign country, tilling land, or working with the men and women fresh off the street. But the work is no less important. They send out the support letters, they process the funds, they make sure our missionaries receive their monthly checks.
So what does this have to do with Robby? Well, Robby has stepped in to handle some very technically challenging tasks. While it is not Robby's passion per say- serving the mission is. So for the past two weeks he has been away in Miami doing behind the scenes work- and for some reason it feels even more challenging than the work he does in Latin America.
There are times we are called to use our gifts even if they seem trivial or we don't have the passion. Because it is not what we do but the heart we do it with.
So Robby has been working long days and nights to make sure our missionaries get paid. Trivial? Maybe unless you are a missionary waiting for your check.
How can you pray? Pray for perseverance, strength, health and most of all passion for the details. A prayer of gratitude.
Because of the need at LAM we have decided to begin raising full time support for Robby. We have no idea where to begin to raise this support. It is total step of faith. We know the path will present itself.
Pray for the hearts of those that will come alongside us in prayer and financial support.
