    In the Groove

    This has been a really weird winter so far. Ourchurch showed its true colors as we moved intoand through the holidays. We shared a mealtogether with the community leading up toThanksgiving; told stories of Gods faithfulnesson Thanksgiving Eve; served 600 peoplethrough the Pay-It-Forward Free Garage Sale;had a Christmas program focused just onchildren; and another program that featuredmore adult music. About that time winter hit.

    This has been one of the toughest winters on

    record. Early in January we had a Sundaywhere few people were able to attend thegathering and a Wednesday night had to be

    canceled. Then at the end of January we had tocancel Sunday services due to winter traveladvisories and overall public safety. Weird.

    Lord-willing we hope to all get backin thegroove and return to corporate worship,fellowship and service. See you soon!

    Missions UpdateBe sure to pray with these

    missionaries facing changes. (a)

    Dan Ingles father passed over to

    Heaven. Although Dan was able

    to attend and speak at the

    funeral, Sheryl had to stay in

    Nepal. Lift them up the family as

    they process this loss. (b) Max &

    Deby Perez-Brown haverelocated from the Middle East

    back to Costa Rica. Ask God to

    give them favor as they seek to

    motivate another generation of

    Latinos to step out into missions,

    particularly among Muslims. (c)

    Emily & Gabo Bastine-Hernandez

    have transitioned to a different

    mission organization. Pray that

    this process will go smoothly andthat their ministry among
