The Procrastion Shall Persit No LONGER.....

Well, we are 'home' from outreach and settled back into our quite room on the married wing. YEAH, we have space! It has been a nice change going from a large city to tiny West Kilbride, but its only three weeks. Avery and I have already walked in the Glen five times since arriving yesterday at 5Pm. I think that is a record for us. It is very humid returning to the west coast, but getting us prepared for SC.

This outreach has been such a testimony to me of God's faithfulness. He has shown up in so many big ways, has given me the endurance to work through my emotions, brought me into a deeper revelation of his character. I have grown in my confidence and learned how to obey and trust in new ways. I love that I still enjoy learning and I am so thankful that God has placed that in my nature. I can never get enough!

During outreach we were able to make lots of new friends and have them over everyone once and a while for dessert. On our last week in Aberdeen we hosted a hospitality night, an amazingly about 50 people showed up (20 of them were the emo kids we has meet in Union Terrace Gardens). It was incredible to see how we have been a link to so many different ministries and set up foundations for YWAM Aberdeen, which is in its foundational stages. By all 12 of us doing so many ministries, Ian and Deborah were able to get a bigger picture vision for what they wanted to invest themselves in.

These are our wonderful co-laborers. Please pray for them as they get there new housing situation arranged especially with a new baby coming soon. (They are the ones on either side of the guy in the middle)

One of my favorite parts of outreach is that my husband learned how to make Swiss bread. So who is coming over for dinner when we return to Myrtle Beach?

There is much more to write and many stories to be posted, but I am going to sleep and will try to do the rest in other post throughout the week,

About Me

Name: Avery and Stephanie

Location: West Kilbride, United Kingdom

Avery was born in Tennessee and moved to South Carolina when he was a wee tike. When he was little, he liked hanging out on dirt mounds and hitting little girls in the eyes. He grew up doing homeschooling and riding bikes. He was raised in a Christian household and asked Jesus into his heart when he was on the potty at age four. Stephanie was raised in Troy, NY and moved to Myrtle Beach, SC when she was ten. She went to public school her whole life and was raised in the Catholic Church. Stephanie became a Christian when she was 15, met Avery when she was 16, and it was all over from there. We met through Avery's best friend Blynn while doing a little Christmas shopping at Barnes and Nobel. We got married February 18, 2006 and are looking forward to a long future together.
