The goal was 25 computer centers and 100 schools being fed. It’s getting late in the game, but we had one more big chance. Some friends invited us to share after their church service at their large church in MN. I had this hope that the right people would hear the message, and we would hit the goals.

And then the pastor, who had been at the church for 17 years, announced he was resigning from the pulpit to go on the mission field. He was going to have a meeting right after the service; the same time as our meeting. I leaned over to our host and said `I want to go to his meeting too!’

So did everyone else. We had a few people show up, but I realized that there would be no way that this church would close the gap. And the most wonderful thing happened to me: I felt covered in His peace like I have never felt before. It was a wonderful weekend of fellowship with dear friends that was refreshing and inspiring.

My dream ended, but He birthed a hope in me. I don’t have a clue how big this thing should get or will get, but my hope is in Him.

God bless you all.

Love

Steve, Nancy, JT, Matthew, Ben and Katie
