<<First Name>>,
As 2018 comes to a close, we cannot stop talking about how grateful we are to have you on our team! This adventure in ministry is an incredible journey, and we are seeing miraculous fruit, lives transformed, and doors open for the gospel everyday. YOU are with us in every conversation, cup of coffee, baptism, and breakthrough! We can't thank you enough— here is our 2018 year-in-review!

Spring of 2018 was Dan's final semester working at Texas State University. After a decade in San Marcos, he never felt a sense of "slowing down" in knowing he was leaving— rather, he wanted to spend as much time as possible investing in his students. The semester was filled with campus evangelism, baptisms, dinners at our house, and deep conversations. Kristin also helped coordinate three missions trips to Monterrey, Baja, and Nepal before she went on maternity leave.

On April 9th, we welcomed our son, Cassius, into the world! He was born at 9.3lbs, healthy and screaming. :) The first few months after his birth were filled with tremendous joy— we never knew we could love something so much. Apart from settling into the roles of parents, we also traveled quite a bit for conferences, training, and fundraising. Cassius went with us to Dallas, Nashville, Washington DC, and El Paso in his first three months of life!

In September, Dan began pioneering a brand-new Every Nation Campus chapter at St. Edwards University, a private school in Austin. It has been slowly gaining traction, as he is building relationships with students on the baseball and basketball team and has an open door with the soccer coach. We also had our Fall Region Retreat with nearly 300 students from around Texas, and we're growing weekly in practical leadership as we intern at Mosaic church in Austin.
