God shows me my real purpose in life.

Romans 8:28 (NLT)

"And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them."

Proverbs 19:21 (NLT)

"You can make many plans, but the Lord's purpose will prevail."

God did not show me my purpose in life all at once. He showed it to me in pieces — through aha moments that woke me at unusual hours, through quiet reflections that sharpened in prayer, and through visions and messages I could not explain and could not ignore. He was patient. He was specific. He was unmistakable. Over thirteen months, what began as a whisper in a Honduran village became a calling I could no longer outrun, and a ministry I could no longer refuse to build.

To God be the glory!

Why We Said Yes

Isaiah 6:8 (NLT)

"Then I heard the Lord asking, 'Whom should I send as a messenger to this people? Who will go for us?' I said, 'Here I am. Send me.'"

James 1:22 (NLT)

"But don't just listen to God's word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves."

Obedience is the only honest word for it. Sarah and I could have spent these golden years living a quieter life, a smaller faith, a more predictable path. Instead, Sarah and I were called to step into something we did not invent and cannot control — and to trust that the God who called us is faithful, and that what He has begun, He will complete. I could not have said yes without her commitment too. Her own obedience to God, and her willingness to make sacrifices with me to serve in a Christ-centered ministry for vulnerable children and their caregivers.

To God be the glory!

A child in the dark, with light breaking through a doorway

Daryl's calling came from his own life journey of pain — through loss, through kinship care, through adoptive parenting. He has lived what too many children live: the silence after the door closes, the long road of being raised by people who chose to step in when parents stepped away.

That experience left him with a conviction he could no longer ignore. Children forgotten by their biological families — and overlooked by the systems meant to protect them — must not be forgotten by the people of God.

And the caregivers walking with them must not be forgotten either: the foster families who open their homes to wounded strangers, the kinship caregivers who step into a role they did not ask for because family was the only word that mattered, and the lifetime caregivers who pour out their lives for children with special needs — for years, for decades, for as long as God grants them strength.

No Longer Forgotten™ exists for all of them.
