Emma and Eli: March 2019

March 2
We had a great time serving @fmsc_org with a group of students from @NCCSEagles. It was a privilege to pack meals that will be sent all over the world to feed hungry people. Lots of laughs and great conversation as we worked hard this morning! Grateful for the opportunity! #GoEagles #WeAreNCCS#NCCSFamily #7000days
Incredible evening of stories and songs with @stevencurtischapman. Grateful for the simple reminder that God is faithful. I’m so thankful for SCC putting his “yes” on the table to writing songs that have narrated my journey with the Lord and for he and @mbchap232being open handed with the@showhope story in a way that led @clintstrange32 and I on a journey to bring our precious son home. I also LOVE that Emma loves these songs as much as we do and has been singing her heart out all night with us. #SCC#SaddleUpYourHorses #7000days

Father, break my heart for what breaks Yours. Everything I am for Your Kingdom’s cause.
Incredible time today seeing the work of @food4thehungry in three precious communities today. Such a blessing to hear each group share stories of how the Lord is blessing them and using them to be a blessing to each other. What I saw today is an incredible picture of Acts 2 community living out the Kingdom of God here on earth. #DominicanRepublic #LeveragingGood#GospelCommunity

4 years ago today Emma was baptized by @georgewright3 @cedarcrestchurch. That was particularly poignant because it was George and Megan’s son Brody’s baptism testimony that the Lord used to prompt Emma to ask more questions and come to faith in the Lord. I’d still love to know what our silly girl said to Pastor George right before he baptized her to get this smile. God is faithful! #7000days @fourlittlewrights

Softball and Baseball are underway for the Strange kids! Eli plays for the Acworth Astros and Emma plays for the Red Bandits. Eli hit a double and a few singles and played well in the outfield. He earned the game ball for today’s game! Emma got a great hit and made her debut as a pitcher. Pitching was my thing growing up and I LOVE watching my girl choose that too. And it makes me crazy nervous to see her out there. @clintstrange32 and I love cheering these two on! #7000days

My first and best YES was to following Jesus. My second best YES was to following this man as he follows Jesus (1 Corinthians 11:1). 16 years ago today, @clintstrange32asked me to be his wife. That was an easy YES then and continues to be an easy YES today. Thank you Clint for being the man of my dreams and for leading and loving our family so well as you follow Christ and His best for our life. I love you babe! 3.14.03

Its a beautiful day to be outside! @clintstrange32 has Eli at baseball practice and the girls decided to hit the driving range. It’s such a blast for us to see our kids enjoy being active! This one has a goal of playing golf for the @NCCSEagles one day! #7000days
March 21
Thank you @NCCSEagles Lower School and @NCCSArts for giving our Lower Schoolers the opportunity to perform some of our favorite Dr. Seuss stories! Emma was in “Green Eggs and Ham”. All of the kids were awesome! Thank you Directors for your hard work these past several weeks! #GoEagles#WeAreNCCS #NCCSFamily#7000days
March 22-March 30
I had the privilege of serving in Ecuador alongside our NCCS Spring Term team.  HERE is a link to a lot of pictures and stories about our adventures.  Powerful week!

I absolutely LOVE our @NCCSEagles SPRING TERM. It is a blast to spend the last week of March on mission somewhere in the world every year. I’d never be able to do it without this rock solid HOME TEAM. Grateful doesn’t even begin to scratch the surface of how much I appreciate the way that @clintstrange32 cheers me on in all things. He is intentionally raising Emma and Eli to help them understand that our family lives on mission. Spring Term Week is always a blast for our kids because they eat at all the places on the “Dad Restaurant List”, go swimming at the Y on school nights, hit up the batting cage, and take care of ALL the other regular stuff. I love my precious family! I also love that FaceTime gives us a chance to check in. #Grateful #7000days#EliKeepingItReal
