Heading Home


We are now in Bogota with a long layover so it seems like a good time to express my gratitude to the people that God sent on this trip.
I am so proud to be a part of this group because I feel as though we represented God in the best way people can, by using what God has given us.
DENNIS I am very thankful for the heart that you have for this mission and the leadership you show so gracefully, and also the lighthearted approach to people that makes them feel comfortable no matter the circumstance.
STEVE thank you for the willingness to do whatever is needed in any circumstance and the way noone ever feels left out because of your ability to see the need that needs to be met.
JEFF the jack of all trades working, VBS, interpreting, and so much more I don't know how we would have accomplished every thing we did without you there your kind spirit shows through in all you do.
ANDREA you do a wonderful job being happy in front of the children and your knowledge of the culture is very helpful thank you for all you did.
ADRIANA you did a wonderful job although in a quiet behind the scenes kind of way your smile and joy show though the work you did with the children and on the building. it was a joy to work with you.
KARIE SUE thank you for the sensitive spirit you brought and the hard work that you gave in a culture where manual labor is for men to do, you stepped in and and worked along side of us. Yet you were still able to fall in love with your surroundings
BETTY you bring something to a trip that noone else can and it is personality in action the way people respond to you is amazing. They are drawn to the lady with a Texas drawl. thank you for bringing it on this trip, and for all the hard work you did.

Once again I am so grateful to be a part of this work that God is doing.
God Bless,
Shane

  1. I am so going to miss reading your posts! Everyday (actually several times a day) I have anxiously logged on to your blogspot to read the blogs and view the pictures. Everyday my heart has been touched by the love and service you have so willingly extended to a people in need of your hearts and hands. You have shared the glory of God through your words and actions. You have planted the seeds of faith that will create an abundant harvest. Thank you for sharing your mission with me.
    Much love and many prayers,
    s
    Although I have loved following your service, I AM READY for Karie Sue to be home. XOXOXO Little Sister!
