Our family has spent sweet time with friends and family we\u2019ve not seen for far too long, and coming back together to encourage one another with stories of God\u2019s faithfulness has been encouraging beyond words. Beyond the stops previously mentioned, we&#8217;ve now spent time in Camdenton, MO and Cookeville, TN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There&#8217;s no practical way to summarize the joys of these times of fellowship; God has used both the expected and the unexpected to begin refreshing our hearts and renewing our excitement for what He is doing. We&#8217;ve spent time with a dozen different families and individuals, each of whom are more than dear to us, and whose encouragement of us in the Lord has far outstripped that which we hoped to bring them. We&#8217;ve shared at the church where we attended during our missionary training, had conversations with dear mentors, shared meals with friends and ministry partners, and rejoiced in stories of God&#8217;s faithfulness over the past dozen years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"344\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2025\/06\/2025-summer-MwL-2-600x344.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7144\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2025\/06\/2025-summer-MwL-2-600x344.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2025\/06\/2025-summer-MwL-2-300x172.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2025\/06\/2025-summer-MwL-2-768x441.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2025\/06\/2025-summer-MwL-2-125x72.jpg 125w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2025\/06\/2025-summer-MwL-2-250x144.jpg 250w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2025\/06\/2025-summer-MwL-2-441x253.jpg 441w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2025\/06\/2025-summer-MwL-2.jpg 1045w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Our trip to-date:<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So far, we have traveled nearly 2,500 miles&#8230; and I expect we&#8217;ll quadruple that by the summer&#8217;s end!

We have been reminded this summer that our God deals with things too big for anyone else to handle&#8230; would you please join us in praying for complete healing for each of these four ladies?
