For the 2nd year in a row Angela traveled to Honduras with our friends from Life Center Rainier to build a home for a beautiful family. By partnering with Dwellings Now in Honduras, we are able to build an amazing home for families in need. It was hot, rainy and hard work, but it is truly a community event in which everyone pitches in and helps out with pure joy.

Princess Yvonna is a commissioned missionary to Paris, France. We met her at our local church here and felt called to help fund her missions work as we are always inspired to see young people hear the call from God on their lives and then be obedient to it. God called her into cross-cultural ministry a while ago. Whether through Henna parties, Bachata fiestas, or Habesha celebrations, she found herself bringing the joy of the Lord into multicultural environments. God clarified the call for her to serve in France after He revealed Paris is the place to transform the nations. Paris is a location that impacts the world. Statistically, it's ranked 2nd most influential city worldwide, and France has the 3rd largest diaspora population in Europe. As a Paris City Team missionary, she longs to see pockets of societies redeemed by the power of the Gospel and church multiplication. This includes ministry to locals, asylum seekers, immigrants, refugees, expatriates, catholics, muslims, new-age practitioners, atheists, and the like. This city's radical manifestation can change the world.

In January we were able to meet up with our friends from Life Center Rainier at Eli House Mission to build a home for this beautiful family. They were so excited and loved getting to be a part of the building process. They have been separated while living with different family members, so they were ecstatic to be able to live together again under one roof. The kids loved the idea of having their very own bunk bed as well.

When we visited Operation iDream in Zambia, our team driver was named Robert. He works part time for iDream as the student ministries leader and is an amazing young man. Well as God always seems to do for us, He made it possible for us to help Robert build a home for his family. He has been planning, working and saving for 3 years to acquire enough to buy the land (which he did) and have enough materials to start his build. During our conversations with him, we realized his heart for ministry and love for the youth in Zambia. This house will allow for ministry as well as a safe place for him, his wife and 2 young boys to live.

We were able to partner with others to build a library on the Operation iDream campus. This Library is the first in this area, as it was just a few years ago that the kids and community here did not have any books. Our hope is that this will encourage the students and community to desire more in their education and drive them to dream big for their future. It was a huge blessing to go and help put the library together so it can be a wonderful experience for all who visit. Our partner Reach, Teach & Empower (aka Learning To Hope In Haiti) was able to collect over 5,000 books that we entered on a spreadsheet, categorized and labeled for this project. The great news is, we could easily fit 3,000 more books in the space.
