Get Yourself some Ashley in Africa!!!



Hi Everyone,

Your time is running out to hear about the awesomeness of God, Cape Town, and how those two forces have combined to shake-rattle-n-roll my life for nearly 6 years. You've got two more chances to hear and see and feel up close and personal the story God is telling in the beautiful motherland, South Africa.

This coming Friday evening from 7:30-9:00 in at 8011 Dozier Place in Brentwood, home of Mike and Debbie Hunter, we'll be having a sweet time of fellowship and sharing. If it suits your schedule, come join us.

If Saturday mornings are more your thing, we're here to oblige. From 10:30 - noon at 1519 Lipscomb Drive in Brentwood (my house), we'll be eating bagels, taking shots of coffee and starting the weekend right with pictures, stories, laughter (and definitely tears!) so come sit with us!!!

For both of these events, I'll need you to RSVP ASAP so we can plan best. Any questions can be posted here, or emailed to me at ashleyinafrica@gmail.com

It's going to be great seeing you all! I just know God will bless you when you hear how redemptive and amazing and hopeful He's been these last few years.

Love to you all
xoxo

another abundance.

1 Corinthians 4.9-13 ..for it seems to me that God has put us apostles on display at the end of the procession like men condemned to die in the arena. We have been made a spectacle to the whole universe, to angels as well as to men. We are fools for Christ, but you are so wise in Christ! We are weak but you are strong! You are honored, we are dishonored! To this very hour we go hungry and thirsty, we are in rags, we are brutally treated, we are homeless. We work hard with our own hands. When we are cursed, we bless. When we are persecuted we endure it. When we are slandered we answer kindly. Up to this moment we have become the scum of the earth, the refuse of the world… I think I must have fallen asleep during this lesson in Sunday school class. Somehow, I missed this part. Because over the past few years, I have faced some difficult days and for whatever reason, the framework I was using to understand those confusing times wasn’t the one above. I thought hard times were a sign that I...

Like Mike (And the man at the Pool).

My brother was born with down syndrome. Due to his mental handicap, he perceives the world differently than I do. Things I would never do are no big deal to him. He doesn't have as much of a filter as me. Sometimes thats a great thing, other times it's life-threatening (like the time he thought he was superman and jumped out my bedroom window). But overall, Mike teaches me an incredible amount about my faith. While visiting America this last time, we attended one of his baseball games. Mike walked up to the plate convinced he was going to do something SO BIG that everyone would remember him forever. He picked up that bat, strode to the home plate, pointed out at the pitcher as if to warn her of the pending doom, and then took charge. After a few missed swings, he knocked the ball into the field and somehow managed a home run out of it! With his slow running pace and half the fielders being in wheel chairs, the odds were not necessarily in his favor but he pulled it off :) ...
