Co-laborers

Late Friday night, our friends, the Conards, joined us in Wichita.  This family fills many roles in our lives. 



Since we met in 2004 (with a lot fewer kids!), they have encouraged us with their generous hearts and listening ears.  Their thoughtfulness shows up exactly when and exactly in the form in which we need it.

 



 

They not only partner with us to serve the Lavukal, but they make sure we stay encouraged through e-mails and care packages when we live in the Solomon Islands.

 



They are true co-laborers in Christ. "God's bright presence" shines in their lives, and He gets all the credit.



 

“Everything in the world is about to be wrapped up, so take nothing for granted. Stay wide-awake in prayer. Most of all, love each other as if your life depended on it. Love makes up for practically anything. Be quick to give a meal to the hungry, a bed to the homeless – cheerfully. Be generous with the different things God gave you, passing them around so all get in on it: if words, let it be God's words; if help, let it be God's hearty help. That way, God's bright presence will be evident in everything through Jesus, and he'll get all the credit as the One mighty in everything – encores to the end of time. Oh, yes!” (I Peter 4:7-10 MSG)
