End of year recap

Wow! It's hard to believe that 2008 is almost over and we have been full-time on the road for over two months. I have to say that time seems to go by faster that I think it has. It seems like a month ago we were hurrying to pack the RV to make our trip to Phoenix for the start of the Keep Breathing Tour. It has been over a month since the tour ended and we have been to Mexico, back to AZ, through parts of southern California, and just recently spent Christmas at Chad's sisters near San Jose.

We have served in an orphanage in Mexico and at the Bread of Life Rescue Mission in Oceanside, CA. At the Junky Car Club Rally, I was able to give haircuts to a homeless mother and her 8-month old son who live in their car in Costa Mesa, CA. We have met wonderful people along the way and continue to enjoy every moment we have together as a family.

It is very surprising to see people's reactions when we tell them that we live full time in a 34' RV with our children. We explain that we travel around serving people in need as well as sharing with individuals about the concepts of Share5. We tell them it is a way for individuals to be begin to see the needs of others around them, and that in doing so they have a transformation of their heart. An underlying goal of Share5 is to get people back to the place where we once cared for each other despite our daily schedules and lifestyles, to be aware of those around us that are in need, and to be leaders in their circles of influence by encouraging others to do the same.

With all that said, we are going to try to take some time off the road for the next couple months, (that is not driving every other day) to sit down are write out a book/curriculum on Share5 . I hope to update more (if not here on our share5 blog). If you would like to consider the Share5 challenges to see how you could change someone's life or maybe gain a new passion in your life please go to Share5 to learn more!

May your 2009 be filled with new adventures and stories to share. I am looking forward to what is to come!
