Oh My Gosh, She's in Africa!!!



A while back I did a post called "What Weighs Me Down". One of the things I talked about was the mixed feelings I had about the possibility of Dennae going to Africa. Well, time has flown bye and she is actually there. It is having an amazing impact on her life and she is having a huge impact there. I am so excited for her and proud of her.

Oh My Gosh, She's in Mexico!!!



Meanwhile, my niece, who is more like a daughter to me has headed to Guadalajara, Mexico for an extended missions and education program. She really has a heart for these people and is already learning Spanish quickly. She called me the other night and rattled off a whole bunch of Spanish. Of course, I have no idea what she was saying. Allie is an awesome young lady. I am so proud of her and the choices she is making in her life.

Oh My Gosh, I'm Going to India!!!

Now for my part; in just a few short weeks I am headed to India. I will be working with a small team training local Pastors and Leaders. These are precious people, many of whom have only known Christ for a few short years themselves. They are in great need of materials and practical training in discipleship and evangelism. I am totally stoked about it!!!

So, at the end of this month, our little Rogers family will have members in four countries on three continents. We definitely covet your prayers for protection, provision, and for blessing on the people we humbly go to serve.

How awesome God is and how great is the opportunity to reach a dry and thirsty world with the water of life! I am so happy for you and for Dennae and Allie! As you all go into all the world I know God is knitting our hearts together as we pray for one another, and share the things He is doing, and plan the next "Go"...Isn't God so great that he allows us to be his hands and voice in this world? Looking forward to hearing of the opportunities that He brings to you...

Brent,

Absolutely! I know how powerful it was for me to be praying for you, Chris and the boys while you were in Africa. It is truly amazing how He is willing to use our little family. I look forward to the time we get to do something like this together.
