Happy Thanksgiving from Isaac and Brittany

Last night after having dinner, Brittany was driving one of the handful of girls she has been mentoring home. This one ‘Jenny’ has been in a dark place, depressed and often alone. “I’ve never felt God the way you talk about it” she explained. “Well let’s ask Him to show you!” responded Brittany. They sat outside of Jenny’s house and prayed “Wow” exclaimed Jenny. “Did you feel anything?” Brittany asked, “Yea it feels cool, it’s like all the worry and fear is just leaving, it feels like light!”
The Bible says that we love God because He loved us first. Whether in high school or business, Sierra Leone or America, people’s hearts long to know the Love of God. To see it, to feel it, to experience the embrace of a Heavenly Father.
That embrace has led us around the world, for love, there is an unending quest in our hearts to know and make known the love of Jesus.
In a trip recently to a border town in Mexico across from Del Rio Texas. There had been over 70 murders up to that point this year; the store that we had used to buy candy had been blown up by a car bomb. All the aid that had been there through churches and other NGO’s had left because of the increase of violence. Our team went and prayed, for hours each day, before doing anything else.
One day after praying and worshiping in the Mexican church, our team went out to give candy to kids. They were met by one of the leaders of the Mexican Mafia in that area. He began to just pour out his story. He had been a soldier serving in Iraq with the Mexican army and was now a part of the Mafia. He showed off his scars. “Do you think God would forgive me for all the bad things I’ve done?” He asked suddenly.
God really is the answer, the hearts of hardened criminals and children alike ask, “Am I loved?” “Greater love has no man than this, that he lay down His life for his friends” He showed us first, Jesus laid His life down an act that screamed “Yes, you are loved” and it still echoes down through the ages, freeing the hearts of men and women from loneliness, accusation, addiction, shame, and pride.
We are working with friends now; God has brought us into a family of people here in Oklahoma City with the same heart as us. We are together ‘Going to the nations, in community, spreading the love of God, from a foundation of prayer and worship’. Brittany and I couldn’t be happier and little Anna, our ‘soon-to-be-born’ is going to be brought into a great big loving family.

We love you all thank you for loving us so well!
You mean the world to us.
Isaac, Brittany, and Anna
