My Nonprofit Reviews

Dropping chocolate chips on cookie batter is taking longer than it should because I'm gazing out the window at the mountains. It's October 31st and winter is closing in here at YWAM Cimarron, Colorado. My husband Dean and I, in our role as Mission Builders, have just spent the last week helping the staff prepare for a remote, high mountain winter. Dean has been hauling wood for the various buildings and doing maintenance while I have spent all week in the kitchen preparing food for the freezer...and whipping up daily sweet treats for the hard-working folks here. It is always a delight to spend time at this well-kept facility. But way more than that, it is so heartwarming to see the way the staff here is so intentional about making a difference in the world. They have all done outreaches to bring hope and help to hurting people in many rough places. Being part of the ministry of Mission Builders International is a richly rewarding way of living as we vividly see hope for the future happening before our very eyes.
