LS TEAM HIGHLIGHT...

     I would like to introduce you to Nim. I don't have a picture of her, in fact I have never meet her, but I feel the desire to meet her one day. Nim is one of our 13 LS teams. She lives in Thailand and is the only known believer among her people group. She sacrifices everything including her own fiancees in order to meet people in the market place in hopes to build a trusting relationship and tell them of her Lord and Savior. This is not at all easy on her or her family, but she trust and loves the Lord, therefore she presses on. Will you join me in pray today for Nim, her family and her 'light' that is among the 'dark'!?!


EXCITING NEWS...

One of our LS family members had AMAZING news last month... a women in India, who our team members have had a personal relationship with and had witness to, has come to know Jesus as her Savior along with her ENTIRE family. Praise God!! When we say, ‘We are in it for the people’ we truly mean it. This is what it is all about; yes, we are helping with the here and now but most importantly with eternal life.

God too is 'in it for the people'... if He wasn't He would have never sacrificed His own Son. 


UPDATES...

We have moved! Our new address... 

??? Crosson St
?????????, SC ?????

MARCH was a BIG month. We moved; check out our new home address on our FB Mission page. Our monthly support DOUBLED in number. We cannot express how excited and grateful we are for all of your support!! We pray that God will continue to bless you as you give. Lastly, Easter came early this year. The older our kids get the more they understand Easter. This year our son realized that the Bible really is real and actually happen here on earth. For a few months now he has been seeking God and desiring to know Him. As a parent it is always exciting to see God at work in your child's heart.

APRIL is coming to an end and we have been very encouraged and greatly challenged, in a good way. The more we move forward in ministering with LS full time the more God is opening our hearts and minds to see what HE see's. Among opening hearts and minds LS is growing and exciting things are taking place. LS will not only have a home office in Flordia but by the end of the summer LS will also be in TEXAS!! Our director, Mark, Amy and their kids will be moving to Texas to oversee this new and exciting opportunity. Also, we at LS are praying over blue prints for a LS Store; YES a STORE in Orlando, FL. In order for this to take place we are praying over a grant that would help launch the store. Please join us in prayer for each of these awesome and exciting opportunities. 


 UPCOMING 

May is a very exciting month!! Our calendar is almost completely booked. If you live in Charlotte, Greenville, or Charleston please let us know as these are the three cities we will be in during May and we would love to visit with you.

PRAYER REQUEST 


Kevin and I are praying about something that God has heavily placed on our heart. It is something we need much prayer in as we are going in it blindly. We are trusting God and we ask that you pray along side us. We trust God will multiply the loaves of bread and fishes as he did in John 6

Continue praying for LS and the three exciting opportunities, a second home office in Texas, blue prints for a LS store and the grant we will need for the store.

The 2016 school year is coming to an end and summer is right around the corner. Pray for Malachi to finish his school year well and for God to help us as parents to continue his education this summer inorder to be ready for the next school year.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

(Ok so it's a little late, but better late than never)
REFLECTING
As we reflect on 2015 we can not help but think of the many prayers and support you have blessed our family with. Many of you meet with us, prayed for us, introduced us to your pastors, allowed us to speak in your church, and joined us on this cRaZy journey. For all of this Kevin and I will forever be grateful. 
All though we are not where we thought we would be by the end of 2015, we can honestly see God working and preparing us. We don't hide that 2015 was much more difficult than we imaged. We had strive to find a balance between family, ministry, meeting with supporters, devotion time, work etc... Many day's we excelled in a few areas and well just down right failed in the others. Needless to say it's hard to find a balance. I can't help but meditate on Hebrew 13:20-22,
'Now the God of peace, who brought up from the dead the great Shepherd of the sheep through the blood of the eternal covenant, even Jesus our Lord, equip you in every good thing to do His will, working in us that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.'

LOOKING FORWARD
As we look on to 2016 we see much hope, understanding, and peace. We know that this year will too be a difficult year, but we also feel better prepared than last year. With this being said...

PRAYER REQUEST
- 2016 will be the year we become fully funded!
 This prayer requires prayer within prayer!
         We specifically are praying for 3 supporting churches, multiple families, small groups and businesses to partner with us in this ministry. Among these three churches we are praying for a 'sending church'.
         Pray for God to proved the many hours we need in order for this to happen.

-Pray for God's provision in the here and now.
          I can hear the confusion so let me explain. We desire to be debt free or close to it before we move. During this last year we were able to knock out a good bit, but let's me honest life is always throwing financial curve balls our way no matter how much we plan. My husband will tell you we live the life of Job in this area. Pray God will bless our jobs and well, for nothing to break :)

- Pray for our family.
        Working full time, Malachi being in school, trying to find family time and meeting with supporters is very difficult to balance. Also two out of four of us are extreme introverts and life alone can be overbearing for them.

-Pray for LS.
          This past year LS expanded! We have added multiple new teams. As exciting as this is more than ever LS is need of our arrival... LS work is never ending and they are in much need of more hands. The sooner we are fully funded the more help/hands they will have. 


As usually please reach-out to us with pray needs. Let us know if you would like to join us in this journey by becoming partners. We pray for our partners to be blessed as God has blessed us. Pray for God's kingdom to continue to advance. 

Again Merry Christmas and Happy New Year,
Kevin, Rebecca, Malachi and Emmalyn Woolsey
