Our Last Letter (Sort of)
Well, maybe not the very last letter ever, but this will be our last official prayer letter that we send out as missionary workers with One Collective. We’ve had the privilege of sending out these letters to our faithful prayer partners for 43 years. Whew. But as of December 31, 2025 we will no longer be employees with One Collective. That feels big. And … Read More Our Last Letter (Sort of)
The Angel of Lost Things
Soft Christmas instrumental music plays from my Spotify playlist, a fragrant candle glows on the coffee table and the fire blazes in the hearth. I sit on the couch, covered in a warm fleece, and let my eyes take in the simplicity and beauty of my home decorated for Christmas. My throat swells with gratitude and a grin. “Thank You, Lord, for the Angel … Read More The Angel of Lost Things

Musser’s Thanksgiving Update 2024
Bonjour, dear Ones, from Flintstone, Georgia where fall is in the air! Yabadabadoo!

Letters to the Lord: Sentimental Advent
Yesterday I was reflecting that I may be the most sentimental person in the world, Lord. And how important each item in my home is to me—or rather I reflected upon the significance of each piece of furniture in this, our Flintstone home. And I can only name two pieces of furniture, the wicker rocking chairs I purchased on sale at Ace Hardware, that … Read More Letters to the Lord: Sentimental Advent
