Greetings from Kim & Lynn

Greetings from Guatemala! The rainy season is now upon us (Winter in Guatemala). We are glad for the rain as it cools down everything here, but also slows things down as well. It has been a great few months of salvation, training, growth and building. Here is one example of God changing lives. We have had the bible college students visiting the community, sharing the gospel and finding about the needs of families in the area. In one house they visited the family received Jesus as their savior. Praise God.


Kim and Lynn have been travelling across Canada and the United States, ministering in churches and conferences sharing the vision of Fe Viva. Over the past month they have been in Kindersley, Sask., for the annual Fe Viva Conference, Assiniboia, Sask, Kingston, Ontario, Chicago, New Jersey and Nashville, Tennessee; where they are finishing off with a fundraising banquet put on by friends of the ministry. It has been a great trip for them. Please continue to pray for us as we see the lives of Central Americans changed for God.


Words from a song have been going through our hearts and minds for a few weeks now, which go like this:


He has paid the highest price
He has proven His great love for us
We will praise Him with our lives
And proclaim our love for Him


The call to praise Him with our lives and proclaim our love for Him never goes out. God has given destiny to each and every one of us here on earth. Let's grab a hold of this destiny and change the world.


God Bless

Running for Good: Donna Klassen


A Story of a Change Agent 

Donna Klassen, Gretna, MB 

The Good Run 2012 


I'm 64 and just realized my love for running this past year, after retiring prematurely from nursing for health reasons. What the running did for me is help me overcome that loss of doing something I loved. I took up running on the Nintendo Wii Fit, using the Free Run activity which tracks my distance.  

 

Another new experience this past year was my first international missions trip to FeViva World Missions' base in Guatemala with my husband and three daughters in December. That's where I got to know the children of Casa Esperanza. I received information about the 2012 Good Run the Casa kids were participating in to help Nicaraguan children go to school and have at least one meal per day. It was watching the Casa kids running on a video from the 2011 Good Run that inspired me to combine my love of running with sponsoring them. 

 

In the two weeks leading up to the Good Run on Feb. 18, I ran 41 km on the Wii, doing 10 minutes at a time, up to 6 km per day. (I had originally committed to doing 25 km.) I was able to raise $750 and inspired my daughter in Portage la Prairie to raise another $110. My greatest fear in asking for pledges was that people wouldn't respond, but God put it in my heart so I took that leap of faith - and people just caught the vision. I just praise God and am overwhelmed by the generosity He put in their hearts.  

My life mission is to inspire my children, grandchildren and everyone in my life to be on mission with Jesus: caring for others.  

 

I want to run the Good Race and be an overcomer!
