Every International
Last November, EveryInternational.com was launched to provide online training for Christians in North America who are interested in reaching the nations that have come to us. Since the launch, the site has received over 32,000 visits, with almost 800 registered users!
The response has been overwhelmingly positive:
“The content is so good I would like to share the videos with as many of our volunteers as I can. I’ve been in international ministry for 40+ years and this is some of the best training I’ve seen.”
Kim Sollie, Volunteer Coordinator Hospitality Center for Chinese
“The number of international students has doubled in our area. Christians are wondering how to be the hands and feet of Jesus to foreigners among them. EveryInternational is exactly what we needed. Their training not only equips for effective ministry, but also sets the building blocks for the international students to be empowered as disciple makers.”
Nicole Schlichter, City Director, International Student Ministries-Canada
Zack is honored to be the primary editor for this strategic project. He’s currently editing the second round of videos that will go live soon. If you would like to learn more about befriending international students and showing them the love of Christ, please check out EveryInternational.com.
The Stamp Collector
Thank you for your prayers for The Stamp Collector. It was very well received at our staff conference this summer, and staff are sharing it with others across the country. A Bridges staff member, Erin MacDonald, commented, “I used to live overseas. This is exactly how you feel coming to a foreign country.”

Family Update
Our family has gone through a major transition this fall. Both Cassia (Kinder) and Annalei (7th) have started at a half-day charter school, and Paxton is in preschool.
It’s been a big switch from our relaxed and flexible homeschool schedule (although Miah is still being homeschooled). In the midst of back-to-school craziness and September being birthday month (Zack 40, Annalei 13, Miah 10,) Naomi broke a toe. The demands of life and motherhood have been very difficult for her, with the schooling transition and the broken toe. Please pray the Lord would be her strength during this difficult season.
