To all of those….

who sense the Lord calling them to Colorado to help us plant a church, I want you to know how truly unique you are.

who have to sell homes, look for jobs, determine where to live and a whole host of other challenges, you need to know you are special.

It’s not easy to leave what is known to travel to the unknown.  It is not easy to lay down what is comfortable for that which is uncomfortable.  It’s not normal to pick up one’s life and move it more than halfway across the country to serve people you have never met.

Yet, there is a team of people who are doing just that.  To the Joshua’s and Reh’s who are leaving friends and family to help people meet Christ, I say thank you.  To the Jamison’s and Angie’s who are leaving schools and workplaces to find a new community to reach, I say thank you.  To the Addison’s and Caroline’s who are giving up rising careers to write a different story, I say thank you.  To the Brittainy’s and Lauren’s who are willing to give up so much to help those who are lost be found, I say thank you.  To the Sharp’s, Stichweh’s and Kloter’s who are building  the foundations of their marriages on trusting God with a HUGE leap of faith, I say thank you.  To the many families and individuals who are going with us, I say thank you.

Thank you for being unique.  Thank you for being obedient.  Thank you for answering the call to be laborers in a new harvest field filled with fruit.

Thank you.
