Thank you for taking the time to read this blog! Merissa and I are taking our family on an adventure to the island nation of Vanuatu. We have been commissioned by the Assemblies of God to spend a couple of years spreading the Gospel to the nations. How did this all begin? Well, let me tell you.
Merissa and I have felt the call to world missions since before we were ever a couple. Each of us, at different points in our lives, have been prompted by the Holy Spirit to exercise our part of the Great Commission in a foreign land. Merissa's urging came in the form of prophetic words and a literal vision the Lord gave her. My desire to serve overseas has been confirmed by numerous short-term trips where God has stirred the desire in me.
Some might recall that we did not want gifts at our wedding since we thought our departure for parts unknown was imminent. Fast forward 10+ years and two (almost three) kids later and you have a family who is in a much better spot to serve! We have certainly experienced a lot of spiritual growth and maturity over the last 10 years. This is the time. This is the location. This is our destiny and opportunity in Christ! Woo Hoo!
