It fits!!

We have packed up the car and headed out! Every inch of the car is full of gear. We will only take about 1/7 of this overseas with us, the rest is for the 4.5+ weeks we will be camping at training camp in Wisconsin.

 

What are we doing? Where are we going?

We have joined Reign Ministries and are now in full-time ministry. We will be living in Clarksdale, but taking students overseas on mission trips every summer. We are working for the Royal Servants branch of Reign, they are based out of Minneapolis.

 

Reign's vision is to train and develop youth and youth leaders whose hearts are focused on Christ and whose minds are grounded in His Word, and for them to have a lifestyle that mirrors Jesus' command, "Go therefore, and make disciples of all nations".

 

This summer we will be going with the Western Europe trip. Rainer will be in charge of the finances and I will be in charge of the food/cooking, the same tasks we had the last time we went with Royal Servants, however this summer will also be training to be team leaders. This week we are headed to Birmingham for a seminar, then a road trip up to Wisconsin to join the Reign team at training camp!

 

We are very excited about working with youth and Reign ministries. We ask for your prayers as we begin our summer. 

 

"The Help"

Rainer surprised me Saturday morning telling me that we were going to the Viking cooking school that evening to celebrate our anniversary! (Our 3rd anniversary isn't until the 30th, but we will at training camp) We went to Greenwood for the day and enjoyed a delicious lunch (fried green tomato BLT, New Orleans style BBQ shrimp sandwich, warm homemade chocolate chip cookie!). We killed time between lunch and our cooking class by walking through shops downtown, geo-caching and going around to see filming locations from the movie "The Help" (it was filmed in Greenwood, MS). At Viking we cooked 'Southern Italian' dishes.... Rainer breaded eggplant... it was so fun and yummy!
