As a reader of this post, you are a part of the team pouring God's love and enthusiasm into missions, and we thank God for you. It's fun to hear that some of you have encountered each other in unexpected places and discovered your mutual interest in God's work in West Africa!
We thought it'd be fun to introduce you to some of the other members of this team. First, let me introduce you to the Warning, Colburn, and Perez families. Several years ago, this family adopted us into their large and loving extended family. Now these girls have the uncanny ability to know when Sara is needing encouragement, even from states away and when she hasn't said a word.
What we love about these families is they are serving God's children anywhere and everywhere. When we were in Kentucky in June, they took us to a CASA (foster care advocacy) banquet and in July they had us walking across the dam in support of children with autism. If you have a Front Row t-shirt or a West African bracelet, chances are you've already been in contact with this family because they are behind the scenes in all of that. We are talking generations of support here.......
How awesome is that?!
Another family we'd love for you to meet is the Williams family. These friends are serving as our mouthpiece to our church family in Kentucky. The day they agreed to be our official communication partners, they started getting questions about our family's plans.....before we'd even left town for the first time! Seems to us they are PERFECT for this role. On top of this, they are attentive friends and supporters of missions in many places.
So many people are a part of this Front Row Burkina team, and this work wouldn't happen if God were not pulling us all together! Again, we are the blessed ones to know each and every one of you and how God is weaving West Africa into the stories of your lives. Thank you!
