Hello everyone! Where do I begin? In the last 10 days I have been to Cairo, Egypt, and seen the pyramids and met with believers from the largest church in the Middle East, been to Petra, Jordan, met with believers in Zarqa and Amman, been to Nazareth, Bethlehem and Jerusalem. Everywhere you go in this part of the world, you see the footprints of our Lord. He is everywhere, His People are everywhere. Forget what you read in the paper: God is at work here and many are coming to know Him.
I met with one Egyptian woman who felt the leading of God to start a ministry to women in Cairo in her home ... because so many women there have been abused. She and her husband now minister to 50 + families ... and their ministry is growing.
What I will not forget is the fire in the eyes and intensity of the speech of the Arab Christians when they talk about reaching their world for Christ. They risk everything for Christ and they count it a privilege. They are an inspriation to me!

Spring Travels
Spring is upon us and with it comes two very exciting trips. I am going with a small team of people to the Middle East next week - we will be exploring new ministry opportunities in several countries, building new friendships and nurturing friendships we already have. I plan to take my book with me and know it will be an encouragement to the women there who so desperately need encouraging.
Then in May I will be going to Budapest, Hungary for the European Leadership Conference, with a weekend stop in Romania to plan our fall trip there. I am also looking forward to the one day Women's Leadership Summit that is part of the conference. Plan to do lots of networking, book in hand. It is a thrill to hear the positive comments from women who are reading "Who Do You Think You Are?"
One woman writes: "I have already read 7 chapters and can't wait to read the rest of the book-thank you does not seem adequate!"
It is a privilege to serve the Lord through Greater Reach Ministries. To God be the glory! Happy Easter! Kristin
