Yesterday, when I left Denver, it was snowing. Â The temperature gauge in my car read 33 when I started the journey and got up to 88 shortly before arriving for the night in Oklahoma. Â What a contrast. Â And what a contrast between what I am doing now through Iron Rose Sister Ministries and what I had been doing for the past six years in Baton Rouge. Â I was focused almost exclusively on a local work. Â I am now more focused on a global level.
Before moving to Baton Rouge to work with the Campus Ministry there, I was living in Venezuela, helping with a church plant in East Caracas for four years. Â It began meeting in my apartment with 12 people and ten years later, it is going strong in spite of the many challenges they face in the country.
I will have an opportunity to visit that church again while I am in Venezuela later this month. Â I am excited to encourage them and share with them about Iron Rose Sister Ministries. Â I will also have the opportunity to speak at the Eastern Venezuela Women's Conference.
Please keep these visits and opportunities in your prayers. Â Over the next few days, I will chronicle some of the current and past stories of what these visits are all about.
