Just a short little recap of our lives in 2015


Just a short little recap of our lives in 2015. A beautiful place to stay in while in the States. Pregnancy. Adorable new baby - Ian Thomas Shanks. Meeting incredible new friends. An unruly but delightful 4 year old. An amazing 12 year old. New truck from God. Saying goodbye to family and friends. Packing. Moving back to Africa. A very long plane ride. Malaria. The enemy fighting. God intervening. Many blessings - so many our cup overflows. Helping others. Amazing growth in the ministry. New friends. New pet snake, lizard and puppies.
I could go on and on about how God has blessed in so many ways.
I am in awe of how God has taken care of our family. We are claiming His promise that as we continue to seek His kingdom He continues to take care of us. I am so thankful for this last year; as I look back on all the amazing things He has brought us through and the things He has done for us, I stand amazed.
