With no children of my own (save for the 4-legged ones
that romp about my yard) I owe my brother a debt of gratitude for the two
beautiful nieces I love as my own. Much to their parents chagrin I’m sure, both
are big time travel bugs. (I once thought that they got that from me, though at
this stage of their young lives they have seen far more of the globe than I have;
and are doing it more frequently, so that I now live vicariously.)
But sweeter to
me yet, both have hearts for missions, which despite the concerns any parent
might have in this day and age for a child going half way around the world to
study abroad, my niece Tiffany is committed to this cause and for the next six
months, longs to study leadership and discipleship in testimony to her
Christian faith in Mijas, Spain.
Seems like only
yesterday, her biggest decisions in life were Chucky Cheese or circus? Dress up
or hiking trails? But as life evolves,
so do discussions and decisions about why we’re here. Today finds our talks more
soulful…we talk about service and ministry and how best to do the work you were
put here to do.
She’s a brave
little girl and a beautiful young woman; I’m proud of her resolve and adore her
beautiful heart.
For those
interested in ministry leadership programs such as this or in contributing to
this mission, you’ll find more information at: http://www.g42leadershipacademy.org
And should you find it in your heart to support her journey, all
donations through G-42 Leadership Academy are tax deductible. (Just make sure
you plug in her name –Tiffany Evins – so that it routes to the proper intern.)
Here’s to each
of us finding our own calling in life…
And here’s to supporting
others in finding their own.
We welcome
your prayers, your support, your love.
