The Flame Goes Forward

Our Jubilee Celebration concluded yesterday here at YWAM Kona. It was an amazing time of rejoicing in all that God has done, honoring those who have faithfully paved the way, and catching vision for the days ahead.

During 'The Flame Goes Forward' event, Kumu was responsible for the sound on all four stages. He worked seven 16 hour days straight. It was a lot of work to host this large of an event, but we were so honored to be a part if this historic time.

This week was very significant for our family, so we wanted to share a few of the photos with you.

With so many visitors, we transformed our soccer field into a campground :)
