My Husband



My husband Jay had a midlife crisis last year... Not the kind that probably came to mind, but one none the less. He and his good friend Jim wanted some adventure in thier lives, they checked around and decided that a mission trip might just be the adventure they were needing. To make a long story a bit shorter, through a few connections they put together a team to build a church in Nicaragua. Beacause Jim and Jay go to different churches, they didn't want one church or the other to sponsor the trip so they met with the Ministy board of evangelical churches in our community and decided to make the trip a church community event. 35 people from 5 different churches made the trip and built the church. Not only building a church but put on a VBS and a medical clinic as well. My husband has since been back there and got to witness services being held in this new building and was just in awe of how God allowed him to have a small part in all of this. I am ver yproud of my hubby and the work he is allowing God to do in him. There is already a 2nd trip planned for Jan 2010 and many people wanting to go, there is talk of a possible well being drilled also. Big things are happening and the lord is very much alive in Nicaragua

  1. Hi Debbie! I think I am following your blog now although for some reason it does not tell me when you've updated. Hmmm.

    I have loved hearing from Tiffany about the mission trips, they sound so neat, what a great opportunity! (What a great "mid life crisis" ;))
