Coming Home
What a whirlwind the past couple months have been! We packed
up our home in South America and arrived safely in North
America on July 12th. The kindness and hospitality shown to us
by our brothers and sisters in Christ have eased the transition
both on and o! the mission eld.
Even before we left our time of service at Casa de Fe, we began to
pray in earnest as to what the Lord would have us do next. We
had no doubts that He would allow us to continue in our work
there. We loved #and still do love$ the people, the country, the
culture, the climate, and all things Ecuador. But as we studied the
Word and sought the Lords direction in prayer, we became
convinced that the Lord would have us continue in our mission to
live out the Scriptural command in James 1:27 to care for the
needs of widows and orphans in their time of need. While we
were doing plenty of that at Casa de Fe, we feel the Lord wants us
to get more personal and even more intentional about this.

Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to visit orphans and widows
in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world. James 1:27

We are thrilled to announce that WE ARE EXPECTING again!
We are expecting the Lord to go before us.
We are expecting Him to make a way.
We are expecting to add a sibling group of 3 to our family
in the next year through adoption!!
We are excited, and nervous, and overwhelmed at all that lies
before us. We are mostly in awe that the Lord would allow us to
serve Him in this way. Would you pray with us and for us to
follow wherever He leads?
Whats next?
We will remain in the Brookhaven area while we complete our
adoption which is expected to take a minimum of 9%12 months.
Je! has re%started his plumbing business, and Stephanie
continues to homeschool the children.
We will continue to support and advocate for Casa de Fe. In fact,
well probably be out of town speaking on their behalf when you
receive this.
If you have supported us nancially during our service at Casa de
Fe, we sincerely thank you. Since we no longer need your support,
please stop your contributions to CornerStone International on
our behalf, and consider designating your gifts to Casa de Fe
instead!
We will continue to seek out ways to serve the Lord by serving
the least of these in our community.
We want all of you to know how much we appreciate your prayers
and encouragement, your monetary donations and your
generosity towards our family. There arent words enough to
express our gratitude.
In His love,
Jeff, Stephanie, Jesse, Abi, AnaClaire, &Ainsleigh Freeman

feat. We bless and afrm
