Next Steps

Hi Everyone!
We made it to California safe and sound.  Gracie was a trooper on the long 2 1/2 day drive - she hardly complained at all.  At the bottom of this post are pictures from our graduation and from Jake preaching at our church in Guadalajara.  
Now, we're full swing into getting ready to head to Charlotte.  There are a few things we would like to invite you to - if you are in the Reedley area:
1)  This Sunday, December 14th we will be speaking at Reedley First Baptist Church.  The services are at 9am an 10:40am.  We will be sharing for a few minutes each service how God is leading us to Guatemala.  
2)  We are having 2 informational gatherings regarding Guatemala.  Folks who want to 
partner with us both in prayer and financially are invited to come and learn more.  The dates 
for those are December 18th and January 3rd, both at 7pm.  They will take place at 1300 W. Eymann (Jake's parents, Larry and Gail Harder's home).  Since these are taking place in a home, we are asking that anyone who would like to come RSVP to us at jakenrenee@gmail.com.  We would LOVE for you to be there! 
We're very excited about sharing!  We realize that this is all during a very busy holiday season, so we are even more honored to have you come.  
For those who aren't in the Reedley area, but want to partner in some way, please e-mail us and we can set up a phone call.  We can even Skype and talk via video!  Don't you love technology!  :)  
Thanks for all of your prayers and support.  We really do need them and are grateful for them.  If you have any other questions, please call or e-mail us!  
Sincerely,
Jake and Renee
