Revolutionary Leaders

Dear Friends and Family,

Wow! It’s hard to believe that another year has come and gone already. God has been so good to us. Although it’s been some time since we’ve seen so many of you, please know that we love you dearly and miss your all very much. We wish you a very merry Christmas and a blessed new year.

Our kids are doing really good in school. Joshua is loving big boy school—now in first grade. He’s reading, doing math, and has developed an amazingly colorful personality. Jonathan is still excelling beyond the other students with a 9th grade reading level as a fifth grader. He has been enjoying reading 300-500 page novels in his spare time. Jordan is now in all honors level classes and still keeping his A/B honor roll. He has been extremely involved with the youth group where he is on the drama team, helps run the sound board, and will soon be in the worship band playing the keyboard. And lets not even talk about the girls chasing after him.

Chrissy started substituting at both public and private schools just before Christmas last year and is really enjoying it. It gives her a chance to be with students outside of church and build relationships. I’m so proud of her. PLUS, we bought our first NEW house!

Our church and youth ministry has been blessed and we stay pretty busy. We’ve hosted numerous concerts and events and have seen just over 100 students commit their lives to Christ and over 120 recommit to their faith. Our mission trip to Paris was amazing, going to National Fine Arts in Orlando was incredible, raising $20,000 for Speed The Light was unthinkable, and taking over 60 to camp was off the chain! I can’t wait to see what God is going to do in 2010!

Now, of course we’ve had some bumps in the road this year as you may have had as well. Through it all we’ve trusted in the love and grace of our Heavenly Father and He has NEVER let us down. Our prayer for your family this new year is that God will provide for your every need, heal your sickness, strengthen your marriage and relationships, and direct your every step. Merry Christmas and God bless your new year.

With all our love,
Roger, Chrissy, Jordan, Jonathan, & Joshua
