Divine Celebration

Today would be Wes’ 50th birthday and what better way for him to celebrate than with his creator. Last year at this time Wes was teaching a marriage seminar. He continued to help individuals and couples learn and grow in their relationships. He didn’t want to waste any opportunities he was given to inspire and encourage others. He is greatly missed but he left an incredible legacy. We are grateful for his life and how well he led us. Our family is working to continue that legacy.

These last few months have been encouraging. I began a part time job, 25 hours a week with a local church as a finance assistant. I love my team and the staff I get to work with. I am thankful I can continue to serve in the community and help other churches. This summer I will be joining Kasey on her missions trip to Albuquerque.

Dakota will be going to London next month with Resonate for 5 weeks, to help reach the community as they are looking to build a church plant there.

Kadin begins his 5 week ministry with Resonate in San Diego today. It is a time of spiritual development, growth and Kingdom building.

Kasey will be going with New Song on their missions trip to Albuquerque. Their purpose is to support refugee ministries, build community and help with work projects. She also plans to go to Oregon with Resonate for a week to learn and grow in her faith.

With our family spread all over we are just working to direct more foot prints towards the Kingdom. We are blessed and we pray for God’s grace as we continue each day with what he sets before us. May whatever your day brings, you feel His love and presence.

  11. Thank you, Karen for this update regarding you and your family, It’s hard to grasp that Wes was still here teaching just last year. What a blessing his life has been for you and for all who’ve been in his ‘circle’ and then to all those he touched with the Gospel. Your family continues the legacy and is doing it well.

    Thrilled to hear that a local community s blessed to have you be a part of their ministry team.
    Hugs and prayers surround all of you as you reflect and live out your kingdom legacy.

  13. Thanks for the update. It was great to see Kaden at the New Songs Mens Breakfast. He got taller. I appreciate the works the men in your family is doing Karen. Also Kasey being so faithful and excited about our Faith. Be well Coddington’s. Both your fathers are smiling and proud of you all from above.
