Looking Back on our Faith Journey
Sometimes to move forward in Faith it's good to look back at the testimony of what God has done. Every step of this journey has been an absolute step of faith. Last Newsletter we glanced at 2011 & 2012.
2013 - After moving to Houston, TX to train with Ad Deum 2 in 2012, we stayed in Houston through 2013. For the first time since we were married we stayed in one place longer then 12 months. God knew we needed the consistency. As this was the year our marriage hit some very rocky road. In short - our marriage got shaken up, to the point where God was truly the glue holding us together. In this season it was more clear than ever that "God is Faithful, he is Faithful, he is Faithful." He brought healing into some rough places in our lives and marriage that had been lingering from before we had ever met. God is Faithful.
2014 - We decided it was time to make our way back to Kona. Not by hopping on a flight, but by taking a faith journey across the country from East Coast to Los Angeles, California - where we felt God had key connections and equipping for us. Our drive across country would have been enough to say God faithfully lead/orchestrated, but it only got better as we got to California.
Ready for this? A month before we arrived to California Tammy's friend Jordan closed & moved into a house where he was hoping to rent out rooms. We arrived and have been his first tenants. Andreas and Jordan hit it off like no other.
Another ironic "coincidence" was that the BASI Pilates certification that Tammy had been looking into for some time, had their HEADQUARTERS less than 30 mins from Jordan's house.
There's so many other "coincidences" during our time here in California. But it will suffice to say - God has truly ORCHESTRATED our time here in California. |

Fundraising Campaign
We need your help. Please pray.
We have been so blessed by donations slowly coming in. However after sending out a snail-mail campaign to raise support for our move, out of 125 letters we've had a 7% response - which we are grateful for but we are praying for more. We have been grateful for every penny that came in - amazing generosity of friends taking up offerings at their church, to friends giving very generous amounts out of their pockets (thank you! thank you!). We have had enough to organize shipping our car and definitely Andreas' plane ticket. We believe we even have enough for shipping most of our boxes(literally Andreas has been crunching numbers every day to find the very, very cheapest way to get things to KONA).
However when it comes to the daunting thought of arriving and finances for housing & establishing roots: tags/license for the car, auto insurance, health insurance, finding let alone renting a place to live, and any sort of financial stability...I feel like my insides start to swell up with a big question mark "How in the world are we going to do this?"
The only way to make this possible is with God and with our Community of supports and partners standing with us. |
