MKs are Missionary Kids. These are not the kids of missionaries, but rather kids who are missionaries.
Matthew and Abigail are the only teenagers on our field, and they do school online. It has been a big adjustment, and they have done amazing. Still, needless to say, they do miss having time with peers like most teenagers their age.
Meet Teagan and Arianna! Both of these MKs have been raised on the missions fields in Europe and Asia, and both have been called to missions themselves. Interestingly enough, God is calling them to AFRICA which is what led them to The Gambia for the month of June.
They came on a short term trip to see life and do ministry in West Africa; little did they know that a big part of what God had planned for them was to bless and encourage some fellow MKs.
Their time was a tremendous blessing! Matthew and Teagan worked to tear down and rebuild old pallets into new decor for the church. Abigail and Arianna unpacked and organized countless boxes and thousands of books for the Bible Training Center. They shared The Word, prayed and loved people while they were here. And they gave Matthew and Abigail something they needed deeply; Friends! Specially, friends in the flesh, in their home, doing life together.
Something special happens when we can share time and space with our friends. We thank God for using Teagan and Arianna to bless The Gambia and to bless Matthew and Abigail more than words can express.
We know the Lord has great plans for all four of these special MKs!!!
