Thank You to all my Supporters
I want to say a speacial thank you to all who have been supporting me in prayer and in my financial needs. It has been a wonderful and honoring journey in Greece and God is allowing me to return once again. I want each of you to know that this has been made possible because of your love for the Lord and how willingly you have obeyed Him and His call in your life. Each of you are being blessed each day and are blessing many lives on the other side of the world. Thank you for everything you do for me and the ministry God has placed in my life.
An Update on Yiannis
I have been telling you about Yiannis for some time now. Many people have been praying for him and his recovery from his terrible car accident.
About three weeks ago I was able to spend some time with Yiannis. He wanted to see some of his friends and to just get out of the house; so his family got us all together and had supper at a place called comsovision. We were able to see one of God's mircales first hand. Yiannis who had been in a coma for about two months and docotors said they could do nothing but just pray for him was up talking with family and friends. He was walking by himself with a walker. I just could not believe my own eyes. God is not only a wonderful creater but also a mighty restorer. He is healing Yiannis and allowing him to live for Him once again. Yiannis is progression each day and loving the Lord more and more.
Yiannis has never taken His eyes from the Lord in this time of trouble and continues to witness and testify the words and love of our Savior.
Another amazing note about Yiannis is that he still knows his english very well.
Thank you for all your prayers and contiune to pray for Yiannis as he is still recovering.

Home for the Holiday
I am now home for Christmas and it is good to be back. I am greatly enjoying the time I have with my family, friends, and visiting my chruch. I have missed each one and will cherish the time I have.
I would like to give an update on how things are going in Greece. God is working in a mighty ways in the lives of the Greeks and also my own. I have been honored to be a part of the commuinty center and to be one of the leaders of the center. I spend my weekends with the children and have seen a stronger bond and friendship being formed with the children. The relationships are growing and time together is so sweet. I miss the kids tremendously and can not wait to get back to them. I am excited to see how God will continue to work in the lives of the community; both children and parents alike.
At the center we have now started music and language lessons which take place during the week and soon will be adding a tutoring area and a computer lab on the top floor.
I also will be working with the youth more when I get back in Jan. I have been going to youth group on Saturday nights but will start to go to the youth Bible study on Wednesday nights also when I return. The youth at the First Greek Evangelical Chruch are amazing young adults who have a huge heart for the Lord. It is amazing to see God work in there lives.
Finally during the week I attend classes at the Greek Bible Institute where I have meet many great people. God truly placed me right in the middle of a group of amazing people to love and encourage me. I have learned so much at the school including in the classroom and out of the classroom knowledge. I thank God for putting the people from the school in my life.
