There are a lot of things that don’t make it into the newsletters, and there’s a simple reason for that. They don’t get photographed! And there’s a simple reason for that, too. BJ being on the road usually calls for me staying back to look after the animals, which I’m glad to do because I love all these horses and dogs. But it means we don’t always get photo documentation of all the incredible events and services we are privileged to be part of. For example, in addition to officiating the wedding of our friends Eric and Carly, over the last few weeks BJ has preached at Temple Baptist Church (Madison Heights, VA), Lovers Leap Baptist Church (Ansted, WV), and First Baptist Church (Rainelle, WV). These were all incredible services at incredible churches, but it was also awesome to participate in an event hosted by Sanctuary Missions and Ministry in Millersburg, Ohio, right in the heart of Amish Country. BJ got to speak to 60+ teenagers, plus spend time with them afterwards. Also not pictured are the many horsemanship students who come and go during the days that BJ is home. These students learn how to ride and train, but they’re also being discipled along the way. We may not get pictures of it all, but that really doesn’t matter. In the end, whether it’s through horsemanship or youth events or special services, all that matters is making the name of Jesus known and sharing His love with everyone we can. Thank you for supporting us and the work of Circle G Ministry. You are a true gift from God, and we love you so much.
All our love,
BJ & Maryanne
