December 2014
Advent is always a
great time of reflection for us; a time to prepare my heart for Christmas. Love, Joy, Peace, and Hope. As I reflect on our lives and ministry
this year, the activities and events that were succesful and the ones that
didn’t work out so well, I realize that God was adding His love, His joy, His
peace, and His hope to it all.
The days leading up to our Neighborhood
Thanksgiving meal, I cooked 9 turkeys and was trying to make sure we had enough
of the stuff necessary to make the meal happen. Gabe from Lenexa Christian Center was bringing tons of food
for food baskets and many were bringing different items for the meal. I am always a little anxious about the
event being a success. Will people
show up? Will there be enough
food? I’m not sure why I worry, it
always seems to work out! We had
close to 60 people from the church and neighborhood come eat and share our
thanks to God!
At La Paz House, you never know what might happen. Some days we have 20 kids there, some
days we only have 5. Some days
things are calm, other days are
rough. A lot of the kids come from
homes and lives that are less than stable. Last week, two teenage girls came in and were troubled over
an uncle and step-dad who passed away over Thanksgiving. They told me that they didn’t know how
to pray and that they knew I did. They wanted me to pray with them. I was able to pray and share God’s love
with them. Sometimes I think the
most important thing we do in our ministry are not the programs or events; it
is simply being here and available for our neighbors.
As we close the year and start planning for next year, we appreciate all
that you do for us and our ministry!
Your prayer and financial support is what God uses to keep us reaching
out. Thank You! We are looking forward to a great 2015!
We hope and pray that you have a very blessed Christmas!
We love you all!
La Paz de Dios,
Lee & Dana
May we draw near to God so much that it brings Joy.
May we believe God’s Word and promises that it brings us Hope.
May we love each other and our neighbors that we experience real
Love.
May we live together each day to bring about real Peace
in our lives and in our world.
