Haiti Update #1 - Mission Projects

Haiti Partners,

Just today we heard some more details about our trip to Calebasse, Haiti!

We will be doing:

• 2 mornings of VBS

• 1 day of working on an orphanage

• 1-2 days of helping build a house

• 1 day of prayer walking/immersion

Please help us pray for 3 things this week:

1. For God to prepare the hearts of Haitian boys and girls to respond in faith to the gospel at VBS.

2. For God to prepare us to have humble hearts, ready hands, and a willingness to be flexible.

3. Continued financial support from individuals as we get closer to the trip.

Thank you for partnering with us to take the good news to Haiti! We will try to write up 1 short update per week as we get closer and learn more about our trip.

The Church's Ongoing Pandemic

Photo Credit People don’t go to church for a lot of reasons, but a Christian without a church is a Christian in trouble. Sadly, the number of professing Christians is far larger than the number who attend weekly meetings. Many churches experienced an acceleration of this trend during Covid as well: professing Christians have returned to school, work, and leisure, but have not returned for regular church gatherings. Why? Everyone is a unique case in the specifics, but there are trends we see in the wake of the pandemic: people have elevated political and medical (mask & vaccine) opinions over faith commitments and demoted their faith so it is not the primary identity marker in their life. What does this mean for the church? Is it doomed? I don’t think so, but Christians need to rediscover that the church can have different political and medical opinions, but still love each other, be on mission, and gather for Jesus. Christians need to remember that the fact that Jesus died on th

August 2019: Another Semester Begins...Everywhere!

This is a monthly update for family and friends about the life of Bronson and Amber. It does not always make it to Facebook, so if you want it in your inbox, send me your email! New & Exciting Late August we started back with Wednesdays at church for all ages. We are covering the Apostles Creed this fall with the youth. There are some who have already memorized it! The Lord has blessed us recently with growth: We started strong with a record breaking attendance on the first night! We are trying to pioneer a new ministry on Wednesday with a Young Adults group! If you know of a young adult in Oldham, KY, I would love to connect them to Jesus and to our church community! This school semester has started for both Amber and Myself. She started teaching school again and is also enrolled in a Seminary Wives Institute class about interpreting the Bible. I started the first semester of my last year in this (MDiv) program. I am taking the classes: Exegesis of Isaiah, Theology of S

October - November 2019: Ministry, Finals, & Family Visits

October and November were filled to the brim with ministry, finals, and family visits. Here are the highlights! In October, we started out with a weekend retreat with the youth. The theme was "Love your neighbor [across the aisle]." We talked about how Jesus' ethic of love even applies to politics in the heat of political fervor. We had a photo scavenger hunt, ate too many snacks, and enjoyed each other's company on top of it all. Please pray that we would be a light in the upcoming dark season in America: presidential election season. Here is a game of chair basketball the kids got REALLY into. (Maybe even a little too much) Here's a photo of some strong high school youth completing a "push up challenge" for the scavenger hunt. Also, Amber and I invested in some bird seed and feeders to enjoy birds on our deck. Here's some of the best photos we could snap: House Finches Sometimes you watch birds and sometimes birds watch you
