Last summer, Steve and Kim served in NOLA facilitating missions trips with Adventures in Missions. We are so excited to be able to go back and serve. We are privileged to be part of this wonderful team of people God has assembled to be agents of his grace and mercy to this city.

And hey, what a cool way to prepare our son to come into the world than to start teaching him now about God's passion for the lost!

Scott, Ben and Alexis are glad to be going to the still hurricane-ravaged new Orleans area. There are abundant opportunities to minister to the poor, hurting and spiritually need people of this region. each of us is excited with the chance to demonstrate his/her gifts of mercy and compassion.
