Bother Me

Things That Bother Me


Screaming kids

People who put God in a box

Satan and his lies

When David washes and dries clothes & then puts them in a chair

Songs at church that have words I don't know the meaning of

When people look at me like I have four heads

The car rider line at school


I could go on and on about the things that bother me. But in the scheme of things - do they really matter?

I saw a new video on GAC the other day. It was by an artist that I'd never heard of - Bill Steely. I wouldn't say that the style of music was my favorite - but I was definitely impacted by the lyrics and the video. It shows a family that could be mine - except I don't brush my daughter's hair - it's too curly. He writes about how the scenes on his tv of people starving, natural disasters and homelessness no longer bother him.

"It really bothers me that it doesn't bother me anymore. Bother me about the things that bother you."

If you get a chance, check it out. And ask God to "bother you"

Mission team member's "idea" + Facebook Fundraiser = Jobs in San Nicolas

  Our last team to Guatemala was in November of 2019.  That seems impossible but it's true.   The primary focus of the team was a pediatric medical clinic that was hugely successful.  However, that wasn't the only seed that was planted that week in the community of San Nicolas.   Wanda King has been going to Guatemala with Caroline's Promise for years.  We can always count on her to bring hand sanitizer, goodie bags that she and her sister make for everyone, and lots of love!  One of the things I love most about Wanda is that she is willing to step in and do anything that is asked of her.  A few weeks before this trip she asked if she could bring a set of hair cutting supplies.  I didn't know if there was a need, but I knew that Wanda felt strongly that she should bring them and so I said "of course!"  Little did we know the impact that one idea would make.   Wanda spent most of that week teaching our partner, Monica how to cut hair.  We quickly realized that
