We pray the Lord is blessing your endeavors in the New Year! For our first letter of the New Year, we thought it was nice that our brand new letterhead, designed by Aaron, had just arrived. Aaron also took some time off from his regular job after Christmas to prepare and launch our new ministry web site! www.gcfamilies.org
As we are setting up our itinerary for 2007, we thought this month would be a good time to ask you to cover our endeavors with your prayers.
Please pray for the Lord to work out details for those things planned and those things yet to be planned, that the Lord would oversee the administration of it all. This is our probable itinerary, exact dates and details to be worked out yet, and there will be additions, deletions, and changes. We are asking you to please pray for us as we are planning and seeking to set up many of these events and speaking engagements, some in concert with our local church. Watch our web site itinerary page for updates posted there.

Multiple Neighborhood Christmas Caroling Outreach
We hope you enjoy the enclosed article. Bernie and Sarah interviewed the original owners of the farm where our housing development was built. I worked their story into an article which Bernie edited. We used it, combined with a copy of the Christmas story from the gospel of Luke, to hand out when we went Christmas caroling in our neighborhood with a group of friends in December. We eventually gave the article and Christmas story to all 266 homes in “Galyn Manor,” plus the Brunswick mayor and city council members. Hopefully the Lord will use the article to sow seeds that will bear fruit for this Kingdom.
We also hope this article gives you an evangelistic idea unique to where you live! Please call us if you would like to brainstorm and pray together about it.
We are hoping by next month to have our family web site launched, to go along with our newly launched ministry website. Our family website will be where we post family pictures and ponderings.
God bless you!
