Seasons of Life

As the holidays wrapped around into a new year life happened. On January 7 our sister in law Colleen Cossette went home to be with the Lord unexpectedly. Joy mixed with sorrow as her son, after working to immigrate for 17 years, was finally approved 10 days later. Richard was blessed to officiate the Memorial Service for the family. Our prayers continue for Richard's brother Bob as he recuperates from a broken rib, pneumonia, and the loss of his dear wife.

NorthEast Reg'l Directors Meeting

Every year our Regional Field Director, Natasha Hope, gathers the men & women who are key leaders in our region for a short retreat.

This year we used the book The Enemies of Excellency by G. Salciccioli as a jumping off place for discussion and prayer. We each prepared an assigned chapter in advance to share. Powerful and thought provoking, the book was a catalyst as our sharing times advanced in practicality and depth.

We also got an inside look into M28; a new style of student outreach that ISI is developing using a model from D.Watson & P.Watson, and adapting it to reach international students.

We are excited about the potential this has for expanding outreach locally and internationally as students take what they learn back to their native lands.

What a blessing to have this time together, away! Thank you, Natasha!

Joyous Christmas and Blessed New Year!

We were so blessed to have these wonderful family members home for the holidays! Thank you for coming! It really does make the season bright to be surrounded by family!
