When living fulltime in a RV was just a dream in my head, all I thought about was traveling around the country with my family. It wasn’t until a few months before our launch date that both Frank and I had a strong sense of a different purpose. Suddenly both of us felt as if God was asking more of us.

As we entered into Arizona after a few months of fast and furious driving and amazing sight seeing, we were all feeling a little off kilter. We couldn’t put our finger on what was actually going on, but it felt like a gray storm cloud hanging over our heads. After some prayer and family conversation, we came to the conclusion that service to others had been put on the back burner for a little to long. Off we went to church, with a mission to find Continue reading Old Town Mission Arizona→
