November

November is month of many emotions.  It is the month I think about the immediate family I was born into.  My father, mother, and sister all went to be with the Lord this month.  That one sentence alone has so much emotion.  Our family is one of those who were avid Cubs fans, too.  When the Cubs won the World Series, my thoughts went to my family, and I joined the ranks of many who have or would like to honor a family member by writing some family names on a brick on the wall of Wrigley Field.

Here is a photo of us, probably the first of all four of us after I was born.
It is in stark contrast to the fact that I now also am a PoPo again.   With great joy, here is a picture of the second generation after me:

The next generation is the focus.  Will they come to follow the Lord?  I pray they do.

Pursuing “youthful passion”

Pursuing “youthful passion” - toward ministry
We work alongside many young people, fresh out of college, with a passion for using their gifts in the service of the Master, for sharing the Gospel worldwide.
They are mechanical and electrical engineers, software developers, and digital media producers. They serve both short and long term, at great personal cost. They produce some amazing things, sent throughout the world, to spread the good news of Jesus Christ.

The Andersons have a deep love for young people, and a calling to minister to them inside and outside the mission – hosting, Bible studies, one-on-one discipleship, and more.
Does it surprise you what many Christian young people seem to crave the most... spiritual depth, sound doctrine, authenticity, and purity?
 God is raising the next generation of workers for the harvest.
They are not the future, but the present!
