To look back on the last year, I am overwhelmed with all kinds of emotions. I am excited about our new journey with The Branches Community Church of Escondido. I am in awe of how God is working out every little detail. We have a potential venue to meet at, financial support from our beautiful friends and family, 16 families who have felt this call of God on their lives who are coming out to California with us, and numerous other answers to prayer. God has gone before us to prepare this new community of believers. I feel a deep sense of hurt and loss over leaving Farmland, but I am puting this in God's hand. I have no doubt we are supposed to leave at this time. I have had so many wonderful experiences in ministry while serving at Farmland Friends Church. I know all these experiences are to prepare me for what's next. How good it is when God prepares us for our next journey. Through all these emotions, I am comforted that God is always constant and he never changes. I am eager to see more and more of His glory shown through the building of his body in Escondido.
"I have set the Lord always before me." Psalm 16:8
