Our journey of faith- written by my mom 🫶🏻

Our Journey of Faith

🇮🇹AUG - God Said to go to Italy

We sorted, purged, donated, & sold nearly everything we ever owned to ‘deny ourselves’ & follow/obey Him.

✈️SEPT - With our new lives in luggage, we boarded a flight to Italy.  

🌱JUNE - It’s been a terrifyingly blessed 9 month journey of faith, living (not vacationing), in this country & we have UNDENIABLY seen Him work in our lives!  

We spend our days with God, studying His Word & seeking Him for His Purpose for our lives.

24/7 We are blessed to have the most excruciatingly emotionally physically taxing position as caregivers for our dear Mom (diagnosed w/blindness, stage 6 Dementia, & mentally unwell) while raising & educating our 6 children, walking our 5 dogs, learning the Italian language & culture, & trying to connect & share the Love of Jesus with the community.

🚨WE NEED HELP!

We began this journey confident in our monetary provisions & excited to see what God Had in store.  

We thought our house in the states would sell & we would buy a place here that we believed He Showed us to buy. As time passed, our purse strings got tighter, & our faith was tested.  God Showed up strengthening our faith in Him.  

9 month later, our house hasn’t sold. The house God Showed us did sell.  Our personal funds dwindled.

Now, the emergency vet visit emptied & overdrew our account.

⛪️We are now living as Missionaries!!!

FULLY RELYING ON GOD.  IT IS TERRIFYING!  I don’t want to admit it & feel a bit ashamed to even voice it.  Moment to moment I am praising Him in this storm & then, bawling my eyes out!  I can be homeless or hungry, but we have children & pets.  I don’t want to ask for help, but we need it.  I feel like asking is doubting God. It’s a HUGE internal struggle to speak about it. I’m expecting God to Show up AGAIN, but my flesh is FReAKing OuT!!!!!! I’m an emotional wreck!!

Our check-out is 11am June 30th. How do you leave a home with 9 people, 5 dogs w/kennels, & 16 suitcases with no transportation & no destination!?

I don’t want anyone to help us if it is not in God’s Will!  Money would make it all better & yet, having no money is making us seek God more than ever! We have grown in Him SO MUCH!!

🙏We have been unable to find work or a home for our family.

As of the 30th of this month we will have lost everything IF God Allows.

Will you please pray for us for our health, provision, protection, direction, & His Will?

Also, if you know of any digital nomad type work, please let me know.

❤️ Thank you for believing in us, for praying, & for walking this journey of faith alongside us. No matter what happens next, God is writing a story & we’re grateful you’re part of it.
