Quick Updates:

The first 2 months of 2011 have been a roller coaster to say the least- but beautiful in so many ways as well! :)
Here's a couple quick updates:

Sean & Rachael
On January 22nd we welcomed Sean Wilson into our family as my sister Rachael officially became Rachael Wilson! The wedding was absolutely stunning, and my sis was a BEAUTIFUL bride!

Me & my sis!

The Holy Spirit has been speaking to me and teaching me new ways to hear and sense His voice lately, I love it! Co-laboring with the Holy Spirit is such an amazing gift!

All through January I was feeling a word stirring my heart for the men of Ohio Valley Teen Challenge. It literally was like fire shut up in my bones... something I've never really experience before. God has really developed a new love in my heart for the men in Teen Challenge. My Dad has worked with Teen Challenge for over 25 years now! They are my brothers- the broken who are becoming whole!

On February 2nd, me and my Covie Lauren got to minister to them at Chapel. Lauren played and sang prophetically, and I got to preach. It was so much fun! I was so humbled as I watched over 20 grown men on their faces, seeking God! Watching the broken be healed is beautiful! God is going to do so much in and through the Teen Challenge Center. I love to just sit back and watch!

I can't believe its almost been 1 year since I started this blog and went to India and Africa! I was thinking back last night on all the things God has taught me since then, which is SO MUCH! I still have a long way to go... But I really feel like i'm in a good place right now. My heart is to establish the Kingdom of God on the earth- whether thats here in Youngstown for now ministering to the men of T.C, or the amazing group of Youngstown Masters Commission students... Or if it's in the nations preaching to womens house churches and playing with kids on the streets.

Really looking forward to what God has ahead this year! Longing for spring....

And then who knows??? Maybe adventures in Europe with Lauren to visit our friend Sarah, and of course Gabby and Samuel (who are back in Sweden for now!)... helping to launch a new class of YMC in the fall and then Pakistan!

I'm a blessed girl!
