We missionaries are headed to all four corners of the world to share the love of Jesus Christ. As you know I'm headed to Zimbabwe full-time to work with our Children's Ministry there. The less I take with me, the better :)

Africa on my mind



My heart aches for Africa, the sights, the smells, the people, and especially the children. As I sit here by heart also goes out to the whole Ohlerking family and everyone around the whole world that Dave Ohlerking impacted and inspired. I personally didn't know him as well as others but his Godly mentorship as a long-term missionary in a time when I so needed it will never be forgotten. I cherish his advice as well as Jean's. God speaking through him has put me on the path that I'm on; a path to help the children of Zimbabwe- to love them, to value them, to continue the work for the children of Africa that Dave O started. I'm ready for God to work through me; for children's lives to be changed. Please stand in prayer for my full-time move there and also pray for the Ohlerking and Healing Place Family during this difficult time of Dave Ohlerking's passing to be with Jesus.


All for Christ's glory,


Shannon
