This last Friday, July 31st, our friend and brother Anthony Morin endured a "freak accident," moving him on to his permanent home. In fairness to all, you need to know who Anthony was and will forever be.
Very shortly after Anthony and his wife Barb left Indiana to start "Awakening Adventures" in Grandview, Anthony was brought to us offering many invitations to "glamp," boat, swim, and jet ski, where nothing was ever expected in return. Considering the temporality of this world, and Anthony's passion for our Lord and Savior, upon receiving the news, I had to immediately leave self and trust in Anthony's permanent promotion.
Then yesterday, Sunday morning, a sweet angel of a girl started singing the song "Goodness of God," and the levee broke. On July 24th, 2022, Anthony and I were on the dock getting ready to take off on jet skis when a body of servants started singing in the purest and simplest acappella form "Goodness of God" over and over while, one by one, children of all ages kept getting baptized.
Only the Author of One knows how many, from the homeless to vacationers, have been brought closer to the only life worth living through the sanctuary provided at Awakening Adventures.
Week before last, Anthony came by to visit extensively, and boast only of the Lord and what He'll do through us if we'll let Him.
Then this last Monday, Anthony's name appeared on my phone during the heat of lunch hour. As soon as I could call back on him, Anthony told me he had accidentally anatomy dialed me while his lawn mower was running, giving us both one last great laugh together. Thank You, Lord.
Please pray with all you have for Barb, and may Anthony's dream of loving on as many as possible continue at Awakening Adventures.
