Banana Boat Update - May 2020


What’s been happening…
Global prayer summit – The European Baptist Federation’s anti trafficking working group hosted a Global Prayer Summit in which people from all over Europe and the United States gathered together to pray for anti-trafficking ministries.  It was awesome to hear prayers in 7 different languages.

Prayer walking in France, Germany, and at the beautiful park on the French and German border.
Kilos of Care for Kainos during Corona
 Lily project – We have been delivering groceries and new clothes during the Corona crisis

It has been 2 and ½ years since we have been home on furlough, so it is that time again…  We are looking forward to coming home to Texas again to see family and friends.  This furlough will look a little different: Megan will be attending college in Texas, changes with COVID, and Joel will be working in the same job, but in Texas.  So this will be an extended furlough for us, allowing us to be in Texas longer this time.  Tiffne has been asked to continue her work with the anti-trafficking ministries here in Europe virtually.  She will continue as the European Baptist Federation’s Anti Trafficking working group Coordinator, and serving with Kainos in Germany.  She is also looking forward to getting involved in anti-trafficking and other ministry in Texas as well as possibly taking courses in Seminary.  We will also continue to seek God’s will for MissionsTogether and where God will lead us in the future.  We continue to be so thankful for your financial and prayer support.  Thank you so much for partnering with us.  We have seen God do amazing things through prayer!  Eph. 3:20, “Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than we can ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us!”
