Five Years in Swaziland!

WOW...we cannot believe that we have been serving and living in Swaziland for FIVE years already...whew, where does the time go? Steve and Monica landed in Swaziland to begin serving as missionaries on September 12, 2003. Our family has had quite a roller coaster ride but what joy to know that we are right where God has us...in the middle of HIS plan! Since that time, we have added two amazing and precious children...Lacie Joy born on June 17, 2004 and Nathan Curtis born on March 7, 2008. We know we are blessed beyond measure! :)
We love serving the Swazi people and consider it a honor to work with so many that have such a deep hunger to know more about Jesus Christ. We are constantly striving to futher the kingdom of God here in Swaziland through leadership training. More and more, we want the nationals to take ownership of reaching their families, communities and churches for Jesus Christ.
We have no idea how long God has planned for our family to serve in Swaziland but we are thankful for tons of prayer support that has kept us going through the last five years. Thank you to everyone for your faithful prayer support!
