Orange County

Definitely time to give an update on life!
Currently in Kona a school is running called the Circuit Riders which I mentioned the podcasts in a previous blog. This school is splitting into several locations for outreaches directly following the completion of the school. We as a base are joining The Circuit Riders on a week and a half outreach in Huntington Beach, California. Nonstop ministry for ten days. Like Kingdom Night x10 nights x200+ people!
This coming weekend I am heading out with 3 of our guys to work as an advance team getting the final logistical preparations finished. A lot of scouting, mapping, planning, detailing, organizing..all things right up my alley :-) I feel super privileged to be able to go and serve in this way!
It's crazy how things have come together...when God is up to something and He says join Me in this..there is NO STOPPING!
I will be driving my car out following one other car. We need vehicles to get around on the ground there and get everything done. So this week  I am getting everything in my car checked over, but if you could be praying that my car has no issues at all and does great that would be awesome! I have known from the day I got the car that it's for ministry and so I am so thankful to have it and be able to offer it's use! It's been reliable for all the years I have had it now, and I want to continue to use it as a blessing.
A few other things to pray for:
The people that we will be ministering to-hearts to be open and receptive to the gospel of Jesus and the Truth!
Safety in Travel
Amazing communication between us as a ground team and coordinating with both Denver and Kona as needed.
$ for vehicle gasoline & for all of our vans to make it to the OC with no problems as well! (Grace for Tanner as he is our vehicle guy doing A LOT of work on them right now!)

Also, on a personal random note, I get to stay with my cousin Brycen for the first week and a half! What a cool blessing. It will be so good to spend a bit of time with him!  And also I will be celebrating my birthday there...so that will be interesting! :-)
