2013 Kids Church

Evergreen’s a multi-generational church. We’ve got newborns to their grandparents.

We like to include everyone in all aspects of our church. You’ll see octogenarians volunteering a kids’ events, teenagers helping young adults, and in this case, an exchange of blessings between our team and some of the young ones of our church.

Shirley, assisted by Heang, Jeff and Steve, taught a simple lesson to some of our kids, asking them to remember to pray for us.

In turn, the kids took the time to pray for us. It’s always a powerful and humbling thing.

Thanks to (not in our photos) team member Chris for taking pics!

A week to go, Commissioning and a Prayer Update

Prayer Update: We’ve secured our housing, and the plan is we’ll be staying at a familiar place.. Praise God! We continue to pray to prepare our workplaces, studies and families for our absence in the coming week. Recently there have been airport delays in excess of three hours, and in some cases, cancellations. We hope that won’t affect our flight, especially because there is a layover. We depart on Sunday Evening, the 28th Church Commissioning It’s always an honor to be representing our church and our God. Our church, www.evergreensgv.org, takes the time to publicly bless us during our Sunday service. It keeps us grounded in our goals, not just to build and rebuild housing to those in the Mississippi Gulf Coast, but to try and have a spiritual impact as well. Supportive friends and church members come forward and place their hands on us, praying for us during service.

2013 – A prayer request at our last meeting before we go.

Now everything starts happening. Fast

Team in prayer regarding our housing


We had our last team meeting before we leave on the weekend of the 28th. This weekend, we found out that our planned housing has experienced some complications with our reservations, and we’d appreciate your prayers. At this time, our housing may have to be adjusted, but we’ll know more in the weeks to come.


In the meantime, could you keep these dates in mind?


4/14, we will be presenting a Children’s message during our church service. Steve and Millie did a dry run of it today, was informative and amusing.


4/21, we will be commissioned/prayed for by our church during the 11am service. If you’re able, please attend, we’d appreciate your support. We’ll also be doing a small lesson for some of the kids during their Church School hour


4/28, we leave, and will be flying out of LAX. We’ll have more flight information, but currently we’re planning to be at the airport at 8pm
