We (Marc and I) and you (Columbus Church of Christ), in the last 13 years have done a lot of life together. A lot of life. Giving and receiving on both ends. The good. The bad. The ugly. The beautiful. The unthinkable. We have shared births, baptisms, weddings, graduations. We have shared illnesses, surgeries and deaths. We have traveled together to Honduras and California. To Sonquest and Winterfest. And other places as well. We have shared hot Krispy Kremes and Chik-Fil-A. Mi Toro, Pepper's and Proffit's Porch. We have eaten in your homes and you in ours.
We have dried each others tears and held hands in prayer. We have worked together and laughed together. Built and sold bird houses together. You have counseled us and our children. The list would be endless if I chose to recall all the things we have shared.
You began the journey with us to Honduras in 1981. You prayed for us and asked the hard questions as we decided to make this our full time work. You love us and pray for us and encourage us. You make being on a foreign field much easier. We could not ask for better partners.
Every night in devo we are asked where we saw Jesus today. I see Jesus in every single one of you every single time I am privileged to be with you.
Thank you to the eighteen people that just spent another great week in Honduras. Thanks to you that raised the money to send them and thanks to you who prayed for the success of this week. Your prayers were answered.
I pray that you continue to let others see Jesus in you.
I love y'all.

Dear Marc and Terri, Wow that note brought tears to my eyes thinking of all the different areas of life we've shared over the 9 years I've known you guys. I thank you for all the different ways your family has been Jesus to us over the years. We love you and all of your family and I extend my sincere gratitude to you for taking care of my family and congregation during the last couple weeks. I pray for much continued great service and good works to come in the weeks, months that you and Marc work with Honduras and Casa de Esperanza. You know that place has a special bond with our family. Take care and know that we love and support you as any family member would. I hope to be better at keeping updated with you and your family. Tell Nicole when she gets there I sent her a message a week or so ago and I have no doubt she will be a natural at mission work as well. Give Haley a kiss, her Auntie Lisa loves her mucho. May God recieve all the Glory for the great things going on in Honduras. Always, Lisa
