Getting Ready

It has been a while, and I am SORRY, but as you all understand December is CRAZY :) Aaron is now 28, Addalyn is now 5, we did Christmas with our work, small group, youth group, high school friends, and our families! It is finally January and we are 6 weeks away from going back to St Kitts. Tomorrow we have our first team meeting!! We can't wait!




Our Team Members:
Aaron Comer
Katelyn Comer
Allen Halcomb
Mabel Halcomb
Olivia Halcomb
Shiona Christinsen
Ashleigh Dillon
Chase Woods




Please be praying for our team:
That we will bond and grow closer to Christ together
That we will be prepared to share Christ with the Kittitians
That God will use us to do His will in St Kitts
That our travel goes smoothly
That each team member will be able to raise the support they need!




On that note, we have one team member in particular that needs help with financial support. Chase Woods is a 15 year old student at Halls High School. He is an outstanding young man with a passion for God and serving others. I have always been impressed with his kindness towards others and his ability to draw them in to the group. On this trip to St Kitts, Chase (along with our team) will be picking up trash in parks, cleaning up yards, houses and churches, running a field day at a local elementary school and ministering at the prison. At the end of the week, we will be helping to run a giant festival with free food, games, musical performances, and the sharing of the gospel! PLEASE help this very deserving student to be able to come and make a difference in the lives of the people of St Kitts.


If you would like to donate you can make checks out to us:
Katelyn or Aaron Comer


Mail them to:
1617 Coventry Park Blvd.
Knoxville, TN 37931




Chase needs a total of $1535.40, any amount you can send will help!







Thank you all!

April Showers (Or the Beginning of Dry Season)

Image
Recently I started reading through Revelation. It's the last book in my journey to read through the entire Bible. It MAY have taken a little more than a year lol. I'm not gonna lie, there were some books I was not excited to dive into (Leviticus? Numbers? Habakuk???). However, God has used each book in His precious word to speak to me in whatever season I have been walking through. I expected to learn a lot about Revelation, but not necessarily from Revelation. I had always viewed it as a way to understand what's coming, but maybe not what I'm dealing with now. But praise God for His LIVING word! It never fails to meet me where I am and speak life over me.  April was not much different than March. Phone calls, reaching out, being told "next week", "next month", waiting, waiting, waiting. Waiting on our visas, waiting on churches, waiting on materials, waiting on a start date at the prison. It can get a little maddening. One of those mornin...

We have FINALLY arrived!

Image
We're here.  We are here. We are really for real here!  We are really, truly, amazingly, actually here! I have to keep reminding myself of this daily, hourly, sometimes minute to minute. One week in, and it still doesn't always feel real.  At our missions training in August we talked about the paradox that missionaries live with. How it's possible to feel two ways at once, think two ways at once, eventually to belong to two places at once. This had been the month of paradox. We spent November saying goodbye and soaking up as much East Tennessee love and memories as possible. We started the month by finding out that we will be getting a NIECE this march!!! Congratulations Adam and Katie and Eli!!! We are so excited for that precious girl to arrive! We also had early Christmas with my (Katelyn's) family so that we could celebrate all together. It was such a fun evening with all our traditions and love and laughter. It means everything to me that...

When Things Don't Go As Planned

Image
  We were dreading October. Not for any great reason, but we had been warned that it was the hottest month of the year. This summer was quite the experience in scorching heat and sweating 24/7, so we weren't super excited about it feeling EVEN hotter. Surprisingly though, October brought cooler breezes, lots of rain, and a drop in temperatures. This shift set the stage for a month of unexpected.   Our Celebrate Recovery Inside had been put on hold while the prison was on lock down after a violent incident. The women's side was cleared, and I have been able to be back with my ladies for the past few weeks. But we were no longer meeting in the air conditioned classroom next to the offices. Now I was being escorted across the men's courtyard, through padlocked doors and past high concrete walls into the world in which my ladies spend their day. We meet outside, me in my full length pants and shirts with sleeves (per the visitors dress code). We are more heavily observed, and...
