Reaching out to the world that God so loved.Having FUN helping others and serving HIM! |
When God's children are in need, be the one to help them out. Romans 12:13a NLT |

We are Rich, Ashlee and Hannah Lindquist and we have fun helping people.
We love to serve the Lord and tell people what He has done so that
they can be eternally saved. The Lord has put it on our hearts to make ourselves available to those that are in need. We do not ask for anything in return but we would enjoy getting to know you and always covet your prayers.
For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me.' "Then these righteous ones will reply, `Lord, when did we ever see you hungry and feed you? Or thirsty and give you something to drink? Or a stranger and show you hospitality? Or naked and give you clothing? When did we ever see you sick or in prison, and visit you?' And the King will tell them, `I assure you, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!' (Mat 25:35-40 NLT)
The Lord has used our first journey to show us that no matter what people look like, or how they act or even what language they speak, on the inside we are all the same - sinners in need of a Savior. If we are willing, Jesus will use our hands and feet to minister to those in need. He will use our voices to reach and teach the lost and He will use our hearts to share His LOVE.
When we first started out, we were always looking for a place to hook-up our RV when deciding where to go to minister. We were concerned about having fresh water, sewer dumps and electricity. The Lord has shown us through our own "journey in the wilderness" that we don't need "hook-ups" (we don't actually need much at all) and that He truly does provide ALL that we need - and quite a few treats as well!
The Lord has allowed us to help people in many ways, such as visiting the elderly and the sick and helping at a Bible Camp. He used us to change a fan belt for someone, help a family get caught up on their yard work and gather clothes for a mission in Mexico. We especially enjoyed sitting around the campfire with new friends and sharing what the Bible really has to say. We even got to spend a month volunteering at a horse rescue. We made many friends and shared the Word with quite a few people. Even Hannah got to share her faith with the many children she met! We met people from around the world of every race and color. The Lord even allowed us to meet four generations of a family that live in our hometown - while we were in the California desert! :-)
