Seattle was awesome! I came back from the experience on a spiritual high (and it was a job interview for Jeff). I am in awe of this company, All for Kidz, and hold high respect for the men that have lead it to great success in the name of God. I don’t even know where to start, I know at one point I was crying (hiding it very well) because I feel like the Holy Spirit was really working in these men, that this would be more then a job that put food on the table. The most powerful moment of our trip was sitting in the car with Arnie (President of the company), Mel (Director of Field Operation), Jeff and I as we prayed for God’s guidance and blessing in our decisions. It was amazing to witness a company that truly relies on God and his guidance and is successful in the business world.
This truly is a ministry in such a unique and nontraditional way. Jeff gets to go into schools and talk about lessons and values that are at the very base of Christianity. The kids will love and be entertained at the unique presentation of the yo-yo tricks as they are incorporated into the story line. It struck my heart as true ministry. He gets to preach and teach these young impressionable children about never giving up, encouraging others, and doing there best. He will probably never see the harvest of his work, but his ministry is to get the soil ready and throw out some seeds as he engages in motivating these kids in character development.
Before going to Seattle I was excited about Jeff getting the job because of all the perks that will accompany it. But, God tugged at my heart and opened my eyes that this opportunity is due to the work of HIS hands and I am confident this is our mission field. Well, actually Jeff will be doing all of the work but I will play the loving supportive wife roleJ
So away we go! Well be picking up our lives and moving to Rockford, Illinois, some time in September. Jeff considers it an honor to join the 13 veteran yo-yo pros, who are the only ones in the world who gets the opportunity of this unique ministry.
