An Attitude of Gratitude

After a 37 hour day, 3 flights and 22 hours of traveling I've made it home. I'm so excited to finally be home, but this summer heat definitely makes me miss the winter temps in Pakenham.  I didn't realize just how long I was gone until I began catching up on life at home from the past 11 weeks. It was quite an overwhelming feeling to finally be home and try to process all the happenings of the past weeks.

Dear Pakenham family, you are missed heaps already. You will always be my home away from home. Feel welcomed to come visit when ever you would like. And once again, thank you so much for giving me the chance to serve among you.

I want to thank everyone who prayed for and financially supported this trip. We may never see the full impact we made this summer or see the seeds we have planted grow, but I know God had a purpose in sending me. Everyone who prayed and supported me helped make that possible. The task in Pakenham (and Australia as a whole) isn't over though, we only handed over the baton to other leaders that will carry out the work and ministries God has planned in Pakenham.  Please continue to pray for blessings on Pakenham Baptist as they grow as a church body and continue to reach out to the community around them. As for me, my task doesn't end in Pakenham either, this summer was just part of the master plan and task God has for my life in full-time ministry. To God be the glory, great things he hath done!

This will be probably be my last blog, so thank you for following my journey in the land down under.
