A great joy of life overseas is witnessing what God is up to in places far from our home. As part of my (Erin) role as InnerCHANGE Europe Regional Director is overseeing the other IC teams in Europe. In April I visited our team in Malaga, Spain to spend time with the team leader, the team members, prayer walk the streets they minister on, and hear about recent changes to the team’s strategy. God is up to incredible things through this team!
With a focus on human trafficking, the team seeks to care for these extraordinarily vulnerable people, working tirelessly to not only care for those escaping but also raise awareness so that the flow of people can be stopped. In speaking with each team member I could sense God’s heart for the people they minister to and was inspired by their wisdom, expertise, and depth of care. I am excited to play my role as RD to support this team as they care for some of the most vulnerable people in the world.

As we mentioned in our last email we will be back in the Pacific Northwest this summer to reconnect with family and friends, including you our ministry partners. Our hope is to connect with as many of you who receive our letters and who live in the area as possible. We plan on hosting a few events both in The Dalles and Vancouver at our parents’ places and will share the dates and times for these events once we have them figured out. However, we now have arranged the dates we will be visiting each of the churches that support us.
Here are the dates and the churches:
June 22nd we will be at Gateway Church in The Dalles sharing during their mission’s update time.
June 29th we will be speaking at Columbia Gorge Christian Fellowship in The Dalles.
July 6th we will be in the Family Room between services at Crossroads Church in Vancouver, WA.
July 11th and 13th we will be teaching during the Friday and Sunday services at First Christian Church in The Dalles.
If you are in the area on any of these Sundays we would love to see you and connect.
Apart from connecting with each other while we are back it would be really helpful if those of you who are able would prayerfully consider if you would be willing to invite us to share with your Bible studies or home groups to be able to share what God is doing in our neighborhood of Possilpark and in our city of Glasgow. We are needing to grow our network of prayer and financial supporters and being invited to share with these groups would be a big help in this process. We don’t make this request lightly as we recognize that these are difficult financial times for everyone, but through creating a broader network it allows a greater number of ministry partners to feel less of the pressure or responsibility to keep us supported when people have to make difficult financial decisions. Please let us know if you would be willing to offer an invite and we can work on setting a date that works for your group. Thank you for taking the time to consider helping us in this way.

Please pray for us as we make plans for our US visit. There’s so many people we want to see, family we want to spend a lot of time with, and memories we want our kids to make but there just isn’t enough time during a school holiday. Please pray for wisdom and for all the pieces to come together for us to make the most of our short time.
