Hurricane Days

This is our fifth year participating in Christ Community Church's mission conference. Formerly known as Wellington Presbyterian, this church is located in Wellington, Florida just west of West Palm Beach. Their congregation is so dear to us as they always welcome us as part of their church body and have a real heart for missions. They are truly partners in the Gospel. 

This year, our reception has been no different but the circumstances certainly are.  Hurricane Matthew is on schedule to hit us tonight in the early morning.  If we had to choose somewhere to be in a hurricane, with these seasoned (hurricane) veterans who are like family, is where we would choose to be.  We are in good hands! And ultimately, we are in God's hands.

Adam got to help put these up on a few houses of church members


Please pray for those whom have already been affected in the Caribbean and pray for those on the coast of Florida (like us!) that will be affected in the next few days.  Pray that we will find our rest and trust in Christ amidst circumstances that make us feel anxious and unsure. 


Philippians 4:6-7 
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
