Little Update

Friends and Family,

Just a short e-mail to fill you in on the last couple of weeks.

Violence in Juarez, Mexico has been very bad. There is an average of 3
murders a day. Due to this violence ALL teams have cancelled their trips to
the Border. That poses a problem for me - that as the Short Term Missions
Coordinator, there's not much to coordinate! I prayed about it, and talked
it over with the director of Life Challenge, and I have decided to perform
my duties when they arise from home in South Dakota. This way I am able to
work part time, and also be with family.

So I'm back in South Dakota, which is NOT where I thought I would be this
year, but God obviously had a different plan than me. I've gone through
about every emotion you could with this whole situation, but know this is
where the Lord has guided me back to. I will continue working for Life
Challenge, but also will be looking for opportunities here for ministry.

I thank you all for "hanging in there" with me during this year. For me it's
been very tumultuous and I have needed some rest. Please keep me in your
prayers, and feel free to call/e-mail if you have any questions or concerns.

Love and Blessings to all,
Kel
