Easter Joy

We have had a busy week. Eden has been off of school the past week and is also off the rest of this week. We have had lots of fun time at the park, getting ice cream (it’s finally warm enough outside), and hanging out with friends who are also off of school. Blake and the St. Marks worship team did a fantastic job at our Good Friday and Easter services. The music and messages were powerful and uplifting.

We also had a great time doing Easter egg hunts with the boys and a few friends from church. An unsafe level of chocolate was probably consumed! Even though I (Katy) have consolidated the treats to parcel out at intervals, Eli keeps somehow finding chocolate eggs around the house and quickly eating them (I will occasionally find a trail of foil wrappers leading to him smiling a chocolatey grin).

We will all need the energy for this next week, though. Our denomination, CCi (Christian Churches Ireland) is having our yearly family conference called “MVMNT.” Blake and the St. Marks worship team is doing the worship for the entire conference and he is already doing a stellar job preparing. I will have lots of opportunities to network with pastors and church members about Zoe. Please be praying that they will be encouraged about this upcoming resource for them and will be inspired to take part in what God will be doing through Zoe.

Thanks so much for staying updated! We appreciate your prayers and support so much.

Katy on the Radio

Katy was on the radio last week!

It was a great opportunity to share what we’re doing with Zoe Community to thousands of listeners of Spirit Radio! She did amazing sharing the vision and heart of this amazing new ministry. Have a listen below!

And as always, thank you all so much for all your prayers and support. We couldn’t do any of this without you!

Katy Edgmon is on SpiritRadio.ie. She describes the mission of Zoe Community of Ireland to create a community to help women who are facing unplanned pregnancies.

Training Plan

We are very excited about what God has in store for training volunteers with Zoe. We know some of the basics that need to be a part of the curriculum, but that’s about it. 

I (Katy) don’t have a background in counseling, so this part of the process is uncharted territory. I have put some feelers out there for people with counseling backgrounds who might have time for something like this. We would love for you guys to be in prayer for this:

• That the right people would have the time and desire to help plan the training curriculum. 

• For many professionals, an extra side project takes away from the limited free time they have. But God has the right people in mind who have space to breathe and to contribute their skill to Zoe.  

God has been speaking to me lately about his provision. It has no limits. He isn’t phased in the slightest when we are working beyond our usual scope or means. He has already been where we’re poised to go and has prepared all the things we need upon our arrival. If God is also challenging you in your life, remember that he won’t ever leave you empty. Resources and courage are yours, from your Father in heaven who cares!
