Aloha!

Dear friends, we are writing from Kona, Hawaii, our home for the next 4 months! We are at the YWAM University of the Nations to staff the Awaken DTS in April. You can still sign up if you're interested and there is another school happening in July! Evan and I greatly enjoyed our time in Charleston. Our fundraisers last weekend with the yard sale and concert were a success and it wouldn't have happened without y'all! We are happy to report that we made it to Kona on Saturday ad we are adjusting and settling in. Yes it is beautiful and we are greatly enjoying being here. It has been so awesome to walk this journey and see God's word to us 5 months ago to come here fulfilled. We give praise to Him for His faithfulness, bringing us here for this time, and for how so many of you have supported and encourage us by joining in with this mission! The Lord is building a team for us and it is an answer to prayer. We are so humbled and grateful for how you have come around us! This morning we went to campus worship with close to 1,000 people on fire for Jesus with the same heart as us to seek Him and take Good News to the lost! It kind of feels like we are at a big conference or camp, but it happens every day and never ends! I think God is going to teach us so much while we are here! We have been meeting the other staff for our April DTS and catching the excitement and vision for what we are doing. We're expecting 40+ students in April and our staff of 17 will start training and preparing next week for the school. Thanks for your prayers along the way and as we continue! You can join us in prayer for our students who have been accepted and who are yet to be, for unity and vision or our team, and discernment as we decide on outreach locations over the next few weeks. We're also praying that we can move onto campus asap as our current place is only for 2 weeks and we are looking for a moped for our time here. Please stay in touch. We love hearing from you!

I'll leave you with one big praise- we saw God's favor once again as we flew out of Charleston. We had 3 bags to check which should have definitely been at least $80. Somehow the lady made a phone call and with a confused look gave us our bag tags and said we were done. We checked 3 bags for free! God is so awesome!!!
