Excited Saint,
Gods's best to you in Christ's re-vatilizing
name! Greetings from the Guigou's! My wife Sara, and I send God's
love from our home to yours.
My Wife, Sara and I moved to the Tipp
CIty, Ohio area early last month so that I could begin serving on
full time staff at CFFM. God has been working in our hearts for
some time as to the timing and details of this change. As a part
of the decision, I have put my career as an architect on the back
burner; it has been a personal field of interest and employment
that I have greatly enjoyed and that God has bless for 30 years.
However, our focus on the things of God and for the outreach of
God's Word has always been our first love. Becoming an employee
of a ministry organization has not been a specific objective, but
for many reasons, we are convinced that our resent change is of
God's design. In the truest sense, it hasn't been a big change for
us, since we believe that every Christian is called to "full-time
ministry" at the time of their new birth. Sara and I will simply
be a bit less occupied in other secular involvements, as we focus
on serving the saints.
We look forward to being involved
in various aspects of the growing work, locally, nationally and
internationally. Of course, the work of the ministry is more about
building the Word in people than it is about "building an organization,"
although I'm thoroughly excited about assisting to build the work
here in every way God directs. I sincerely believe that God has
been actively working since Pentecost in the lives of individuals,
families, ministries, ministers and churches across the entire body
of Christ. We are certainly not the only ministry working for God,
but we are certainly called as one of them. Each individual ministry's
unique calling should be the most important mission to those of
that organization, if any work for the Lord is to get accomplished,
yet still appropriately respecting the godly work of others.
Our move brought us from Midland,
Michigan where we had been thrilled to help support a local homechurch
community for the past eleven years, in association with Christian
Family Fellowship Ministry. The fellowship there continues to thrive
in loving homes across id-Michigan. The local website can be viewed
www.cffmm.org
As for our children, son Micah is
in Midland as a licensed realtor; Dottie just began at Saginaw Valley
State University in Michigan. Our son Grant and his wife of two
years, Amelia Vogt, live and work in Richmond, Virginia. Grant is
in the human resources department of First Market Bank while Amelia
teaches 3rd grade. All love God, Jesus Christ, the written Word
and people. We couldn't be more thankful!
For every Christian, our greatest
days can be ahead of us. God will certainly open doors of service
and utterance in any area where God's people set their heart to
walk with Him.
Zechariah 3:7
Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and
if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also judge my house,
and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee places to
walk among these that stand by.
Let's all continue to listen for the
Father's "still small voice" as he directs our paths,
our decisions and how we are to apply our long-suits in the Body
of Christ. Please let us know how we and the Christian Family Fellowship
can be of greater service to you and those you love. We'd love to
hear from you.
Onward and upward,
Your brother,
Kevin
