Commissioning, Transition and God’s Love
Friday, July 16th, 2010Today we finished X-Track, our training to serve cross culturally. It’s been an amazing five weeks of learning and interacting with others. Last night all of us that have finished the program were commissioned. It was a beautiful service that included those of us being sent out being prayed over by the others. We grouped [...]
We Are Official
Thursday, July 1st, 2010Today our Global HR department informed us that we are now officially IRs. (International Representatives) This means we have met the organizational requirements to serve outside the US full time. We still have a lot to do before we move, but this is a very exciting milestone in the overall process. Now we need to [...]
Miles to go before I sleep
Thursday, May 20th, 2010While it certainly isn’t snowing here, I keep thinking how nice it would be to have a quiet pause but it’s not to be right now. We have promises to keep and miles to go before we sleep. And a lot of miles it will be too. In just under 3 weeks we will be [...]
Praying in May?
Sunday, May 2nd, 2010I like to pray. I like it even more when I know stuff that I can pray about specifically. I think I’m not alone and to help others to know how they can pray for what’s going on at CCCI, there are a number of resources. I’ll point out a couple here that are new [...]
Outreach in Poland
Friday, April 30th, 2010This is a cool video for a number of reasons. It’s got good music, it’s ministry taking place in a country that was behind the iron curtain not that long ago and fits nicely with a Biblical admonition. I’ll leave you with that and the video below. “Better to spend your time at funerals than [...]
Oumar
Thursday, April 29th, 2010I’ve been busy and should have had this up a while ago. This is the last video I’ll be posting here from our conference in Thailand. This is Oumar, our tech leader for Francophone Africa. Oumar lives with his family in Mali and is a joy to be around. I think you’ll pick up a [...]
Ways to keep in touch
Friday, April 9th, 2010We have a neat job, Ingrid and I. I was reminded of it this week-end as we shared Easter and our wedding anniversary with dear friends of ours that were in town. Due to the fact that we don’t operate alone but rather as part of a large team of ministry partners, we have so [...]
Sam
Wednesday, April 7th, 2010This is Sam Varghese. Sam is the IT leader for South Asia and lives in Bangalore India with his wife and sons. Sam shares a bit about himself, his family and his ministry. Sam uses a word that I think would be worth explaining and that is “capacity”. Sam is heavily involved in every aspect [...]
Miheret
Friday, April 2nd, 2010Well, if you get our newsletter, it should be landing in your mailbox today or tomorrow. Monday at the latest I would think. Either way, in it we talk about a friend and co-laborer Miharet. He is a young Ethiopian man with technical talent and a heart for reaching his country, his continent and the [...]
