Staff Stimulus 2008

This year Staff Stimulus was more important than ever! We have been going through a really difficult transition in the life of our team, church, and families. Three of our young Brazilian staff have decided to not only leave staff but the church as well. As you might imagine this has been an incredibly difficult time. Our hearts are crushed and torn as young men we've loved, nurtured, and trained have decided that they know better and desire something different.

We love them dearly and desire the best for them! We believe God will use it for His glory and the development of His Kingdom, but our hearts are dearly saddened. Thankfully God had providentially ordained that Rev. Barker and Dan Roberts would be here during this time to encourage, console, and lift up the team as we look forward to all that God wants and desires for us!

Thank you Jesus for your Great Love that covers us!
