A Normal Day

January 29, 2019 by Katie Moore

# 4 Communicate

Right now you are reading my blog. Even so, you may never have thought about the fact that one of the things I do with my days is write stuff so that others can read it.

A pile of thank-you cards for supporters. Mail doesn’t go often, so we rely mostly on email, but occasionally have a chance to send the real thing.

I send out an update about once a month (here’s hoping!), and try to keep my blog relatively current. I attempt to keep prayer requests circulating among the people praying for this ministry. I write thank-yous to supporters and answer emailed questions from churches.

When I was teaching school, this was one of the prayer requests in our jar. We pray for you guys, too, and thank God for your involvement in spreading the Gospel.

Even Facebook and Instagram are ways that certain of “my people” keep up-to-date on the work and ministry here with the Nahuatl. At times these communication challenges can be daunting, or seem like simply another thing on the to-do list.

Most of my communicating with the body of Christ is done long-distance. In this picture I was updating one of my Michigan churches face-to-face.

I am convinced, however, that keeping other believers up-to-speed on the ministry is crucial. They are involved through their prayers, their resources, and their finances, and part of our job is to share the experience with them. I want them to rejoice in conjunction with our celebrations here and mourn with us in our hardships and trials.

Reminders of a few communication tasks on the chalkboard in my office

There is great joy in remembering that we are part of a universal effort to reach the lost nations for God’s glory. So, thank you for reading. Thank you for asking questions. Thank you for learning, and praying, and giving, and being part of what is happening here.

Waving “hello” as I worked on this very blog. Full disclosure: after taking this selfie I found a piece of cabbage in my hair from making sauerkraut earlier. Oh, well, they say that transparency is healthy and I do want you to have a sense of my life out here.
