Pics of the team!

So, last night (thursday) the whole team got together to pack the duffle bags of supplies that we are going to be bringing to Happy Home. Thanks to the generous donations from the people of Solid Rock, we have 13 stuffed duffles to bring over! We are bring medical supplies, personal hygiene products, blankets, art supplies, shoes, clothes......and lots and lots of candy :)

We also had mini-photo shoot so that you all can start putting names with faces. Here is the team!

First up we have our Fearless Leader-Ben Newell!



And then we have the endlessly-entertaining Jeanne Correll




Next up we have Tiffanie Farrell (featuring Garrett on the left)




And of course, Mr Jeremy Reedal (doing his best male model imitation)




The lovely Theresa Patton


And her husband, John



Miss Danielle Higginbotham (officially the girl-with-the-coolest-last-name)


And of course, we now come to Kaitlynn Taylor (who is apparently super flexible)

And the arty-shot goes to Melissia Heyworth :)


Allison Newell is Super Rad


And now we have Mr Ryan Doucet (that's pronounced "doo-set" in case you were wondering...which took me months to sort out myself)


Miss Amanda Carter


And last, and quite possibly least, we have me! With the beautiful Kaitlynn by my side to make me look a bit cooler :)




Well, that's it, that's all. We will be finishing up the packing over the next few days and saying our goodbyes to you all. Please remember to pray for us, even now, as we begin to prepare our hearts to serve and to learn over the next few weeks.

Testing, testing, One, Two, Three.....

Well this is blog number 1 in the Hear The Cry series for this summer's missions trips from Solid Rock. Up first is our trip to Shimoga, India. We leave this coming Sunday, July1st, at 1:20pm from PDX! We all got together this morning and the church prayed for us in both services. It was both inspiring and sobering. Inspiring to see how much love is being poured out onto us 13 people going, and sobering to be reminded that we not only represent our Lord on this trip, but we also represent the people of Solid Rock who have sacrificed financially for us, and who have been praying for us for weeks.

Well, we are all packing up this week, taking our Malaria pills (which are supposed to give you crazy, vivid color dreams!), and trying our best to prepare for our trip to another world.

Please keep praying for us all. We have felt your prayers, and covet them!

More to come....
