The time has come .......

SISTERS Me Kristin Melodie

The time has come for my sister and her family to leave for YWAM (youth with a mission ) for SIX months. They will be in DTS (discipleship training school ) for 3 months and then they will spend 3 months in South Africa for their mission outreach. Oh boy ... this will be hard for me . My sister lives next door so we see each other many times a day . So I might get a little whiny over the next 6 months :)
If you would like to follow their journey click here . Hopefully starting in one week they will be updating. I told them they have to blog at least twice a week ( we will start easy with them :)

Please remember them in your thoughts and prayers as they are being faithful to Gods call for their life .
Also my sister , her husband and another couple started a awesome non profit organization to help provide financial assistance to couples wanting to adopt but can't afford it . Check out their amazing work
God is never finished with us . We are a "work in progress" if we allow him to use us . So "let go and let God" and he will bring your life to amazing places :)

Katie that is so awesome...
And Mel's husband has the same name as mine..JED, I have never seen anyone else with that name!! LOL

Not being nosey but where did your sister adopt from? I saw on there that she adopted but I don't ever remember hearing about from where!

Your family is one amazingly awesome family and your parents have to be proud! If my sister was to leave for 6 months I would be whiny the whole time.

I can't imagine not seeing my sis for 6 mths but knowing that God is going to use her family to share Jesus would make it easier.
