A journey of our life lies out before us, as missionaries. Where and how we will be serving among the Navajo as of yet is unknown. We are looking to go serve this summer, to prepare and see how we serve together in this area. This is both exciting and scary to us. There are alot of unknowns as of yet on this path we walk, but we know God walks it with us.
Our journey to this actually started many years ago. Back in 1996, Rob was lead to the Lord by a Navajo man, while he was serving on the reservation. From there, the Lord called Rob to return to the people who gave him his relationship with Jesus. For Michelle, while sitting alone in theater watching Rich Mullins' Canticle of the Plains in 1999, God called her to Dine Bikeyah,
"the land of the people, the land of the Navajo". This for her was an answer to a question that had been been one her heart since she was 7 when God called her to be a missionary, just 3 years after she gave her life to Jesus at the tender age of 4 and half years. Yes, this journey might be a path of unknowns, but it is a path both of us have been preparing for through our life's journeys.
