Tessa’s June News
Great is God’s faithfulness! I am excited to announce that the Lord has provided 90% of funding and I have requested permission from mymission agency to buy my ticket to Germany! This means that I will be there in time for teacher training and to welcome the new students when they arrive!! Praise the Lord!
Staff Training
140 missionaries gathered in Wheaton, IL for two weeks to participate in TeachBeyond’s new staff training at Wheaton, IL. Most of us will be serving missionary kids and families in schools around the world, such as my upcoming ministry at Black Forest Academy (BFA) in Germany, and some of us in local schools in restricted access countries.
I wanted to share with you all what I learned about TeachBeyond’s tagline. It goes: “Transformational Education Services” (see the logo at the bottom of the email). The organization believes that transformation can only come through the work of the Holy Spirit, and that the tool the Lord has equipped us to use in this organization is education, emphasizing that all we do is done as a service: First, to the Lord, our God, and second, to the children and families we work with. The desire is to help those we work with discover who God intended for them to be.
Transformation
As I was thinking about the way God brings transformation in our lives, I envisioned a beautiful lantern sparkling in the night: God is calling me to bea lantern in Germany, letting His light shine out to those around me. I drew the picture at the beginning of the email to remind myself that I am a vessel for the Lord, and it is He who will bring transformation.
As always, I am so grateful for you, thank you for your support and prayers. I am keeping you in my prayers as well, and would love to hear specific requests if you would like to share. Just email me!
Many blessings and much love,
Tessa
