5000 miles and counting…. | the rieds.
https://therieds.wordpress.com/2009/08/13/5000-miles-and-counting
Short Term Projects Division. 5000 miles and counting…. We have had two crazy busy months of support-raising and traveling back and forth from Illinois/Indiana and Florida. The month of June, we saw our miles rack up as we traveled around Illinois and Indiana (the first 1500 miles). Then, we moved from Indianapolis to Orlando (the next 1000 miles)! They were such a blessing to us and we were able to share a lot about what God is doing in our lives and around the world! Was a step out of our comfort zones!

Short Term Projects Division. Back on the road again…. Well, we are back on the road again. So far, we’ve been to 8 states in the last week and a half, traveling all together about 1,600 miles; and it looks like we’ll probably get another oil change before we head back down to Orlando. God has truly blessed our time on the road as we meet with supporters and restore relationships with life-long friends! It’s so amazing to see the way that God provides and also to see that we are truly blessed! Our next s...

Short Term Projects Division. Archive for April, 2009. Today the sun came out. The sky is clear and the air is fresh. Indeed, spring has sprung. After living in Florida for several years I had begun to take the sun for granted. In Florida the sun comes out every day and it makes our dashboards crack (or perhaps that’s because we sometimes drive cheap cars…) and our skin burn (unless you’re Derek- then it just gives you a nice tan! The clouds have parted and the sun is here! Praise God that in the same wa...

Short Term Projects Division. Archive for September, 2009. We thought it would be great for you all to see where we are going to be working! We went down to the office in Fort Myers for a week and had a great time getting to know what our jobs are going to include! While we were there, Ashley did some photography work (which is second nature to her), so that we could share with you all out in blogosphere more about what we are doing! Enjoy the pictures and commentary! Our office building (from the front!

Short Term Projects Division. Archive for February, 2009. This week I read a book by Henri Nouwen called Life of the Beloved. I’d like to share an excerpt, because it’s the best way to describe what I am hearing in the stillness right now. Every time you listen with great attentiveness to the voice that calls you the Beloved, you will discover a desire to hear that voice longer and more deeply. It is like discovering a well in the desert. Once you have touched wet ground, you want to dig deeper. However,...
