On the road again...

Well, Jeff is getting excited ... because it is almost time for fall tour with Lone Sheep. Last year was the first time that Jeff was able to really travel and build relationships with people on the road, so he is looking forward to going again and hopefully re-connecting with some of those people. This year he would like to go for a total of two weeks, but that will be broken up a bit. October 15th would be the first show in Memphis, and the last will be New Orleans on November 1st; a total of nine shows in six cities in the south east. It was fun to see Jeff get so excited about going. We have really enjoyed stepping into Lone Sheep little by little. In some ways, we have eased into it so gradually that we didn't realize how "deep" we are in it, and how our hearts have been moved; God's heart is for these nomadic people who long for community- the LORD desires to walk among them, and for now, at least, he is inviting us to help be his visible hands and feet, and knees as we pray for and with these incredible people who live a lot of their life on the road. As I said, Jeff will need to be gone for about 2 weeks, which means we have to raise support for that- to cover him missing work and traveling expenses. We still have a little money saved in our Lone Sheep account, but need more. If you would like to help us out financially, please let us know.
If you want to give by a check, please make it out to Lone Sheep and memo: Stalcups and then send it Beau (call me for his address) or you could make it out to SVCC and memo it Lone Sheep-Jeff Stalcup. Thanks for sticking with us on this journey- we are blessed by your presence!
