Kirk & Juanita McKeeth, Nampa, Idaho

“We were in Idaho in June, 2009, to prepare for this move and the Lord directed our steps to a house in Nampa that holds broad potential for a varied ministry in this season of our lives.  We made it through the challenge of dengue fever and loading the 20’ shipping container in Panama in July with a renewed awareness of God’s grace, goodness, strength and provision in our weakness.  In the past three months, we have continued unpacking (I still have 80+ boxes of books waiting for shelf space) even while pursing the new ministry of church planting here, along with complementary roles with Spanish speakers such as volunteer chaplain ministry or translation at a nearby hospital (Kirk) or as a volunteer budget counselor (Juanita) with a local ministry that helps people develop discipline with their finances in order to rescue endangered houses and homes, families and relationships.  This is discovery stage as we get to know the realities of the existing Hispanic population and ministries and see how we can best serve here, continuing as full-time missionaries with CAM International.”
