Count Down...Sound off, look for the whole team to share their background


Over the course of the next week you will hear from several people from our team to give you a bit of an overview of who we are. So a bit of background on me and my family. I’m joined on this trip by my wife Steph she is the children’s pastor at Blackhawk. We will be leaving our 2 ½ year old with my family in the Twin Cities while we are gone. We did a similar trip to Honduras about 7 years ago, and have wanted to do another trip ever since. This is a summer of transitions for us as well, I'm going back to school as soon as we get back, so as we are leaving for Peru I'm leaving my company of almost a decade! Between Steph’s children’s ministry experience and my Spanish we should be in a good place on this trip. We are specifically excited to see the water wells that our church is sponsoring throughout Peru and bring some of the exciting news back to Madison on the progress FH is making bringing clean water to remote areas of Peru. We are also excited to build some relationships with the community of La Merced. We'd love you to pray for us, specifically for focus on the trip and relationships in La Merced while there is so much going on in our lives. Safe travel, and more importantly open hearts and minds to change should something go not as planned.
