[31] “Do not worry then, ….. for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.[33] “But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
[34] “So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
Greetings from Glennallen, Alaska,
3,838 miles traveled with – no flat tires, no engine trouble, no delays at the borders, good weather for driving, and A God who blessed our socks off! The verses above are good reminders not to worry about anything that we “need” because we have a God that KNOWS! Therefore, if we know that He knows, we are free to seek His kingdom. Thank you for your many prayers and support that helped to make the trip possible and the mission field attainable.
We hit the ground running from our arrival on the evening of Thursday, September 27…unpacking the trailers in a day and a half and then getting everything set up and figuring out what was still needed over the next few days. At the same time, we were working on establishing utilities, getting driver’s licenses and plates, planning a trip to Anchorage, and attending the first night of Awana on Wednesday. Seven days later, Thursday, we were off to Anchorage for our first stocking up trip that ended up being 4 days long, ugh! It is nice to know that God knew already what we needed and had things already planned.
Today, Tuesday Oct. 2, was Scott’s first official day at KCAM! It is Sharathon time at the radio stations next Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, so he is getting familiar with how things work and flow in the studios so he can take some shifts on air during the fundraiser. Many engineering tasks need some immediate attention as well, so his time will not be idly spent. Today, as well, Sarabeth baked the first loaves of bread in our humble abode! This has filled the air with wonderful smells as she is creating our home and settling us in.
Please remember our prayer requests here and to send us your prayer requests as well. Pray for Sharathon – that it would, first, Glorify God and the work that He is doing; second, that we would meet the goal; and third, that we would have a wonderful time of outreach and fellowship with our listeners! Please pray for Sarabeth as she finishes settling in and begins a new school year with the kids. PRAISE the LORD for His great provision and care for us on the many miles traveled and for giving us a home to be in out of the cold.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING THE JOURNEY!
In His service,
Scott and Sarabeth Hill and family
