Dear Friend,

What a summer of significant change!  And with any significant change there is both rejoicing and grieving– a letting go of what was in order to embrace what is.  In a recent time of prayer I heard the Holy Spirit encourage me with “don’t focus your attention on your limitations and what you or anyone else is not.  Rather, focus your attention on who I AM and what I CAN DO.”  I was so encouraged!  We pray that you too, will focus your attention on who God is, and what He can do on your behalf.

We love and appreciate you,

Rich & Merridith

Family Update:        Aidan (2.5 yrs) • Jonathan (15 mos) • Emma (7 wks)
Please pray for us, specifically Aidan and Jonathan during this time of transition with the birth of Emma.  Pray that they would each find their identity and security in God and His love for them.  Pray for un-interrupted sleep.  And continue to pray for our physical health and protection- stand with us against sickness and disease and any attack of the enemy.  Pray healing, blessing and well being over each of us.

Ministry Update:
Cleansing Stream- Merridith is now the Director of Cleansing Stream!  We are grateful for this opportunity to serve God and His people.  And as curious a time as it is with so much happening on the home front, we really feel this is the timing of the Lord for her to take on this new role.  Please pray for her as she leads this significant ministry and pray for our family- protection, grace, revelation, strength, wisdom, etc.

LIFE Groups- Please pray that individuals would respond as God stirs and draws them to discover the treasures He’s placed in their heart and that those treasures would find expression, at least in part, through leading a LIFE Group.
