Sharing Christ's Love with International Students in North Texas
Today was a special day for Jonathan, C-6 and myself. We were able to do something a little different and I think we all came away with a smile. Andrea, a member of our church small group, has been a part of the ministry of Mission Arlington for many years, since she was 19. In …
(check out pictures and videos) Things have been incredibly busy the last couple of months. Usually summer is time to rest for us, but this year, there have been projects, speaking opportunities, staff conference, Lisa working, busy, busy busy. After thinking about it after school started, we realized that hadn’t taken any time to do …
Our good friend Jessica passed away. She was only 36. Lisa and I met her the day she first met her husband Sean. The two of them were a match made in heaven (I guess we all are in some ways…) She was young, sweet, sophisticated, had traveled the world and a firm Believer. Sean …

It has been a while since my last post. There have been many very time consuming projects afoot. Anyway, I wanted to post some things that have been on my heart but I haven’t had time to post. I am going to bring in some tidbits from our most recent prayer letter that share what …
(See Pictures) As Lisa and I walked off the airplane in Colorado Springs, the first thing we saw was the sign of the driver that said, “Modano, Morrow & Turco.” For those of you who don’t know Dallas sports too well, those are the names of the superstar players on the Dallas Stars hockey team …
Yesterday was a good day. It started with me sleepily waking up to the great joy of my kids. C-6 was jumping up and down with excitement as I walked into the kitchen. I felt like I had won the NBA Championship or something. (Go Lakers!) There was genuine excitement as they were able to …
One of the fun parts of our ministry is that we take students to do things that we already like to do. I love basketball. I grew up a Lakers fan (still am) and kind of like the Mavericks too. Basketball has become a huge phenomenon around the world and going to a game is …
