Merry Christmas!
Dear Friends & Family,
We hope the end of 2013 has you remembering the memories you created in the past year. That is exactly what we find ourselves doing as we write our letter this year and we want to share some of those memories with you.
What Happened in 2013
January found us volunteering in El Paso, Texas with missionaries on the border of Mexico. We had just gotten back to the states from taking a huge work & witness team to Northern Mexico.
Volunteering gave us many life experiences and relationships that we wouldn’t have been able to learn anywhere else. We wouldn’t trade this past year for anything.
June found us leading a work & witness team in El Paso without our fellow missionaries. We learned just how much work it is for the receiving missionaries for a team to come. It was a lot of work but we enjoyed it too.
Isaac was born August 4th. He gave us a good scare though. He was an emergency c-section and came out pretty blue, but recovered from that and was gaining weight fast.
Our volunteer contract with the missionaries ended in August, so we moved back to Minot, ND, where we are serving at Minot First Church of the Nazarene. Josh is teaching 5th & 6th Grade Sunday School and Wednesday Caravan. Deborah is teaching K & 1st Grade Sunday School and Wednesday Nursery. We’re both directing this year’s Children’s Christmas Play. We look forward to serving in Minot this coming year.
Merry Christmas!
Josh Debbie Esther & Isaac
