The past several weeks have been exciting on the so levels for our organization, but definitely stretching for me as an individual. From leading our first board retreat, to having our first Facebook Live interview, to filming this new mission video — it’s been equally exciting and nerve wracking!

I’m not naturally comfortable in front of a camera or large group of people, so I was praying A LOT for the right words, a restful heart, and kingdom impact. God showed up for me, as He always does, and helped me get outside of myself and share my passion for what He’s doing in and through Homes & Havens.

Several months ago I contacted Kiersten Williams from Make Beautiful Co. about doing a mission video for Homes & Havens. I had been so impressed with their work and really thought they could capture what we were about. They really worked with us and our small budget to make something that tells our story well. Kiersten was an absolute joy to work with. She made me feel comfortable, laugh a lot, and really get excited about sharing this story with you.

So enough chatter from me. Watch for yourself what she created:

While it is a little awkward to watch myself, I feel like this video captures the heart of our organization so well. Thank you so much, Kiersten! I adore you to pieces and I’m so glad we are real life friends now!
