Stingray, Blowfish, and Sharks – oh My!

What a week!  After a long week, we were able to reflect on God’s blessings.


Church service at Kirk of the Pines

His many blessings included time to worship with new friends at Kirk of the Pines, enjoy local cuisine at Pete’s Pub, relaxation by the beach at Long Dock, ocean life up close and personal, Bahamian style ice cream and finally a testimony that challenged all of us to obey God’s calling and will in each of our lives, even if it’s for just one person.

Speaking of ice cream, the cherry on the top was the blessing of being on this team, each member put together with unique personalities and gifts that meshed perfectly to serve His purposes.

We are so thankful for the opportunity to serve Him and receive His abundant blessings.
