But recently I have been blown away by God&#8217;s faithfulness and His kindness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As many of you know we are currently in the stage of raising support so that we can go to Paraguay. We just arrived in Arizona a couple of days ago so that we could connect more with True Hope Fellowship church in the Gila Valley area. Yesterday we were able to be at True Hope and Pastor K spontaneously asked us to share a bit about ourselves and our future ministry <em>and<\/em> asked us to take the whole church service on July 31st to share more. Wow. Just one more thing to remind us of how God is working. We did nothing to earn that, and the Lord just placed the opportunity into our lap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/rebekah-gutzmer\/files\/2022\/07\/IMG_1162-600x800.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-151\" width=\"208\" height=\"277\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/rebekah-gutzmer\/files\/2022\/07\/IMG_1162-600x800.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/rebekah-gutzmer\/files\/2022\/07\/IMG_1162-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/rebekah-gutzmer\/files\/2022\/07\/IMG_1162-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/rebekah-gutzmer\/files\/2022\/07\/IMG_1162-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/rebekah-gutzmer\/files\/2022\/07\/IMG_1162-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/rebekah-gutzmer\/files\/2022\/07\/IMG_1162-83x110.jpg 83w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/rebekah-gutzmer\/files\/2022\/07\/IMG_1162-188x250.jpg 188w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/rebekah-gutzmer\/files\/2022\/07\/IMG_1162-190x253.jpg 190w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/rebekah-gutzmer\/files\/2022\/07\/IMG_1162-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 208px) 100vw, 208px\" \/><figcaption>Saturday mornig breakfast @ the <em>Cottage Bakery<\/em> in Safford AZ.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we continue to walk forward, we will continue to lean into the Lord, follow His leading and direction, and walk faithfully as a family who loves Jesus.
