Summer Ministries

It has been and is continuing to be a great summer. We really enjoyed Rachael, our intern featured in Pirates of the Palouse, and the kids at the various camps and churches.

Like when the official asked who appeared to the shepherds and announced the birth of Jesus. Christopher replied, "A band of heavenly ghosts!" The judge accepted it.

I was impressed and could relate to her testimony of beating depression and connecting with Jesus in listening prayer. Her foundation in the Word and her hunger for intimacy to hear from God resonated with where I felt my own journey was going.  She had a 5 day group coaching event in May called “Encounter Jesus in the Noise”....
