New Year's resolution


To get married! This may come as a surprise for most of you - I'm in North Wales now where Kevin lives. I went out on the streets in Wrexham with him yesterday as an observer for Street Pastors, and we picked up about 18 bottles (which could become weapons otherwise), gave out a few pairs of flipflops to people wobbly on their heels, and sat with a guy who was a little over the top for drink. This is what I feel the Lord calling me to do eventually when I get back from Tanzania. That's not yet, but He has confirmed it by giving me a new friend who has turned into a fiance! How good is that?

Kevin wants to spend some time in Tanzania first so he can find out what he's let himself in for in that context. Pray that we can find God's plan together with CMS and manage to be in the center of His will for both our lives.

That's quite a new year resolution!! Congratulations to both of you. Full of questions about how, when, where etc? Will be praying for the Lord's direction and provision for both of you. Much love.

Kevin here... It's just as well that it's my New Year's resolution as well! I often pinch myself and ask "Is this really happening?" It is quite scary, but I am not afraid, cos I'm trusting God and I'm totally safe in his hands. Time and time again, he has spoken into our lives and encouraged us - last Sunday through Jer 29:11 - again!
