Birthday+1

Josh came quickly the night he was born. I barely made it back into the delivery room before Nancy began pushing in earnest. Only a few minutes later a robust baby boy named Joshua Daniel came into the world.



Josh grew up with a kind heart and sensitive spirit. He had his time in the wilderness as he entered adolescence. But those years of wrestling produced a man of faith, of love, and of vision.



He did years of inner city missions trips, eleven months in the heart of Chicago, married the love of his life Anne, and finished his Urban Studies degree from University of Pennsylvania. They began The Ark to create a community of love and safety for the kids of North Philadelphia. http://thearkofphilly.blogspot.com/



Yesterday, on his 27th birthday, Josh came to the WHM Sending Center to share his vision, his dreams and his struggles. It was a proud moment for a father who had prayed that Josh would take the gospel to hard places some day, and for his mother who now rests at Home, having showed him unconditional love for so many years.
