Hello Folks,
The speed of life can go so quickly that you barely have time to stop and smell the roses, or when you try you get stuck by the thorns! The pace of ministry life has been 90 to nothing and my bride and I have barely had time to spend the quality of time together that we both desire and is needed for a healthy marriage. I am so blessed by the gift God gave me through Baby Doll and not a day goes by that I don't thank Him for her and ask His protection over her and us as we march down His path of ministry.
The past two months have been non-stop and although blessings every day and around every corner, it still can added undesired stress, so I would ask and covet each of your prayers for my bride and I as we walk out His path way in the journey of ministry! Starting back on February 26th we hosted a missionary couple from the Ukraine and showed them around Pearland and introduced them to several people to help them raise support. Soon after they left on March 2nd, I was off to Croatia for 12 days to do our Spring MLO which as you know was a huge blessing and brought about many opportunities to share the why of Jesus! When I came back, Nedo, a young man from Croatia came with me to do an internship with a workout facility and to get in front of some professional football scouts. He lived with us for about a month and on the day he flew out to return, March 17th was the day our 51 Croatian visitors came to Houston to begin the Croatian Migration 2019. Their stay blessed us and the team of hosts, van drivers and others who walked beside us in making their visit one to remember! They left April 27th and 4 days later I was serving at a men's Tres Dias weekend till Sunday night and then on Tuesday afternoon I was on my way to Croatia to begin the Summer Migration for HiS PRINT!
24 hours after I started my journey to HiS HOUSE in Sisak, Croatia I finally arrived at my second home. After weather delays in Houston caused me to miss my connection in Amsterdam, I was rerouted to Frankfurt and then to Zagreb, Croatia! So the normal 14 hour time it takes to get to Croatia was extended to just short of 24 of hours from start to finish! BUT......even though I was rerouted in Amsterdam, traveled through 4 airports, had to check in my carry-on luggage in Amsterdam because the plane was much smaller and took three different airlines to get from Houston to Zagreb, when I got off the plane and down to baggage claim, there were all three pieces of my luggage going around the conveyer belt together! That never happens even when I am taking the same airline and only have one stop! God was definitely in on the details! And actually for two of the three flights I was in a row by myself and got to lay down and rest some. That rarely happens, especially on the long legs of 10 hours. Lordan came and picked me up at the airport, got me to HiS HOUSEsafely and after a small bite to eat, shower and small conversation with Janko, I headed off to bed in the security of my second home!
