This past week was spring break! With no school for our neighborhood youth, we were able to hold 3 Youth Street events in one week! From water fights to an epic scavenger hunt, it was a groundbreaking week as we got to go so much deeper into the lives of these crew and their families. We have been blessed to have Jairo and Lourdes, who work with Servant Partners, in our neighborhood and their heart to minister to the Youth Street families is such a blessing. To know a family with such a heart for the Lord and His people are here ministering is such an incredible answer to prayer, not to mention they are Spanish speaking!

Not easy but worth it.

Some days are spent hanging on to the promises while others are full of joy as we see His favor and goodness in full sight. I treasure the hard days, the days when you hang on, trusting in Him, those are the days that you draw close and feel Him near. Knowing the pressure that we feel is nothing compared to what Jesus experienced gives us hope that if we hold on, we get to see our resurrection Sunday :) That thought is so comforting, and with it, we renew our strength in the Lord and push on.

What's Next?
We are in the midst of exploring leasing a space that we will be able to run Youth Street and DTS, in our neighborhood. We hope to find a building that will also be able to hold our offices and possibly some accommodation as well. If you are stirred to help us in finding something we would be grateful for the assistance. We have a few decent options, one in particular, that we are seriously looking at. If you have on your heart to give a gift towards us securing the property contact us, we trust that as we step out, He will meet the financial side of things. To arrange a Tax-deducible gift towards YWAM Ember Ink please click here. If you would like to have a look at our fundraising goal I would be happy to email you the document so you are aware of the specific plans.

Please be praying for us as we discern the way forward.

Blessings,
Luke and Angela
