SOUL FARMER

Aside from leading the city of Kokomo as the mayor, Tyler Moore shares how he met his wife, Ann, and how God has been working in their lives since birth. Tyler and Ann's paths crossed as they were both leading teens and seeking the wisdom of God.  In hindsight, it was a divine appointment that they both were at the same event (Destination Jesus), working with their parish's youth.  They both recall seeking God’s direction for their lives when they met and started down the path to their union.  Now, 24 years later, they have five adult children and one grandchild on the way.Show linksDestination Jesus https://destinationjesus.org/St Joan of Arc https://saintjoan.org/Christ Renews His Parish https://www.crhpdst.org/St Patrick Church https://stpatrick-kokomo.org/City of Kokomo Mayor https://www.cityofkokomo.org/departments/mayor_s_office/index.php~~~~PRAYER REQUESTS or BECOME A PRAYER PARTNER: https://crossamerica.net/prayer/If you want to sponsor a zip code or learn more about how you can be involved in the ministry and mission of Cross America - visit https://crossamerica.net/

Picking up where we left off after part one of this inspirational story about Taylor’s journey from a tragic accident to a triumphant victory! She clearly has defied the odds at EVERY STEP of this journey.  She started her time in recovery Grand Rapids, MI at Mary Free Bed in early June where she recovered for 181 days.  Making strides and juggling setbacks never stopped Taylor and her family from believing that God was always in control.  She crossed several finish lines, including walking the stage for her high school diploma (one year after the accident).  Her ability to keep learning didn’t stop there.  She’s currently going to college for a degree in industrial electrical engineering.  Where she will be graduating in May of 2024. Her enthusiasm, joy and light are contagious!  She embodies all the reflections of her miraculous story.  What’s beautiful about this is that Taylor NEVER felt disconnected from God. She NEVER forgot who He was and what that meant to her!  He was always there.  How cool is that?Show linksIn the Waiting: One Mom’s Quest for Finding Joy and Faith During Her Daughter’s TBI Recoveryhttps://booklocker.com/books/12796.htmlhttps://a.co/d/16ror6eMary Free Bed Rehabilitation Hospital https://www.maryfreebed.com/Elite Therapy Kokomo https://www.facebook.com/EliteTherapyKokomoTrephine SyndromeZimmer Biomet https://www.zimmerbiomet.com/enIs He Worthy?  https://youtu.be/FkRiYsTN7KY?si=F1gbbBeOf8lRtCfD ~~~~PRAYER REQUESTS or BECOME A PRAYER PARTNER: https://crossamerica.net/prayer/If you want to sponsor a zip code or learn more about how you can be involved in the ministry and mission of Cross America - visit https://crossamerica.net/.

Leanne Fogg has always followed the call God put on her life!  Her role as the Executive Director at the Kokomo Habitat for Humanity is a great example of that obedience.  Crystal and Jennifer had a great conversation with Leanne.  She stressed that they build ‘affordable’ housing, and there is a long and detailed process for partner families to qualify and start the year-long process.  Getting a home in this program creates a generational change for the family that they walk alongside.  It’s about more than just four walls.  Until recently, the entire organization in Kokomo has been run and managed by Volunteers.  It takes the generosity of time and resources to make this non-profit operate. There is a lot to this program, be sure to listen to learn about how these affordable mortgages work.Habitat for Humanity is a nonprofit organization that helps families build and improve places to call home. We believe affordable housing plays a critical role in strong and stable communities.  They have been operating in Kokomo Indiana since 1988 and they are completing their 67th house here.THEIR VISION | "A world where everyone has a decent place to live."THEIR MISSION | "Seeking to put God's love into action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities and hope."CONTACT: Leanne Fogg, Executive Director | leannefogg@habitatkokomo.com O:765.452.2185SHOW LINKSHABITAT FOR HUMANITY https://www.habitat.org/KOKOMO COMMUNITY www.habitatkokomo.comCOMMUNITY FOUNDATION OF HOWARD COUNTY https://www.cfhoward.org/~~~~PRAYER REQUESTS or BECOME A PRAYER PARTNER: https://crossamerica.net/prayer/If you want to sponsor a zip code or learn more about how you can be involved in the ministry and mission of Cross America - visit https://crossamerica.net/.
