When Angie Washington and I dreamed of a safe place online for people in the trenches of working and ministering overseas, written by people living and ministering overseas. We wanted a community where honest conversations and gritty realities were honored, a space where challenge and encouragement could be shared with respect and intention.
And now, one year and nearly 280,000 visits later, amid 3,500 comments, this space is thriving.
And we, as a community of writers, just wanted to say thank you. Thank you for making this place a corner of the web where we all want to be at least a little bit each week. The following is a little video message from us, from several different continents. . . .
Happy Birthday, friends. Here’s to another year of honest conversations from around the globe.

We’d love to hear from you. As we plan for next year, what would you like to see more of? What topics would you like covered?
Or, would you share the ways in which this community has challenged or encouraged you? Any specific post that touched you?
Want to give us a birthday present? Consider sharing this post online, subscribe via the sidebar, liking us on Facebook, or (the ultimate gift) ask your friends to connect with us on facebook, as well.
