The Rocks in the Jar Podcast

This weeks special guest is Carl Wist! Together we recount the history and legacy of LAMB's Big Blue Bus as well as the importance of missions. This episode is dedicated to Diana Collins and Howard Clarke:"Diana Collins was a longtime friend of mine and then LAMB. She taught the children how to knit and crochet, make soap, and raise chickens. Diana was a deacon of the church, a true servant of Jesus and His people. She died unexpectedly in 2023 of complications following surgery. She never tired of telling stories of the journey to Honduras from Vermont aboard the big blue bus! Howard Clarke, a friend of Diana, actually purchased the bus. For several years,  he held an annual barbecue at his house to raise funds for our children. His wife, Helen, needed his full attention when she was struck with Alzheimers, but Howard remained a heartfelt supporter of LAMB. Both Diana and Howard left footprints of love and sacrificial giving." - Suzy McCallCheck out the video of The Church of the Holy Cross/Holy Spirit team (circa 2022) giving the Big Blue Bus it's final push: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1z4gmhZ06HVINrGvkEib9_8mG9e8YIrpc/view?usp=drivesdkInterested in learning more about missions with LAMB?  Check out our website: https://lambinstitute.org/thinking-of-going/

Today, we’re sharing the powerful adoption story of a family from Idaho, currently walking in faith as they prepare to welcome a little girl from LAMB’s children’s home into their hearts and home. This story is a beautiful testimony of God’s perfect timing and the way He moves through the LAMB family to weave lives together for His glory.

This episode's special guest is LAMB's Founder and Director Emerita Suzy McCall! You will hear of multiple rocks in the jar including God placing the missionary call on Suzy's heart and leading her to serve in the community of Flor del Campo, a moment God spoke during a challenging chapter early on in LAMB's history, and finally of a milestone that we celebrated this past year at God's Littlest Lambs' School. This episode is especially meant for anyone who may be praying over joining the missionary field or working in ministry! LAMB's Website: https://lambinstitute.org/

In the early years of LAMB, the stateside Board started to celebrate the miracles God had performed through and for our ministries by placing a rock in a jar. Each rock represents a story of faith, a testament to God’s goodness, and a moment that He moved in a way far greater than we could ever possibly think or imagine. As we embark on our 25th Anniversary celebration, we’re excited to share the stories and miracles behind the many rocks in our jar at LAMB. On this episode, we will share of the miraculous healing of a little girl at LAMB’s children’s home named Melly. Learn more about LAMB at: https://lambinstitute.org/Click to see images of Melly's Healing Transformation: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QUHJQ6O_sdu_WNg7Nn9gTkEGbtsiYGdi/view?usp=sharing
