Subject: Exciting News: Brand & Bloom Service, Web Updates, and a Request for Prayerful Support

"I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. " ~ Psalm 121:1-2

Hello Friend,

I wanted to send a quick note and apologize for the long delay since our last update—time really flies! We have some exciting news to share, including the latest developments for the Creatively Seeded website. I am also sharing details about a mission trip I am preparing for next March, and I would be grateful for your prayerful consideration as I prepare for this endeavor."


Website Updates

On the business front, one of the biggest and most exciting projects we've been working on is developing a brand-new service called Brand & Bloom! To those of you who have already experienced it—thank you so much for the feedback; it has been invaluable!


Right now, Jonny is working diligently on writing all the content and fine-tuning the service details for Brand & Bloom. Since this new offering hasn't been advertised on our main website yet, we are incredibly excited to get it officially rolled out!


Jonny has also been busy rewriting all the existing website copy to provide the most complete and clear details about all our services. As you can imagine, this comprehensive effort has taken quite a bit of time to implement, but we are aiming to have all of this beautiful, new content ready to launch by mid-December!


Uganda Mission Trip

I have a piece of personal news that has been a long time in the making, and I couldn't be more excited—and just a little bit nervous! I am thrilled to share that I will be taking part in a Uganda Partner Visit in March 2026.


For those who know me, you know that committing to a mission trip required finding the right organization. I am incredibly fortunate that my home church has recently partnered with the respected non-profit, Children's Hope Chest.


Through this partnership, our church is establishing a brand-new CarePoint in Magoro, Uganda. This CarePoint is vital, providing children and their families in Magoro with a safe, welcoming space to access critical programs focused on education, leadership development, nutrition, health, and spiritual growth. As a congregation, we have been actively involved in supporting this effort, sponsoring 97 children already, which sets the foundation for building long-lasting relationships.

Nick and I are incredibly happy to be personally sponsoring Genevive, a wonderful 9-year-old girl. Learning about the realities in Uganda has been incredibly eye-opening—for example, over 48% of the country's population is under 14, and 34% of girls are married before the age of 18. Tragically, many children have lost parents to HIV/AIDS, and preventable illnesses like malaria and dehydration remain major causes of death for children under five.

It truly brings us great joy knowing that we can help bring meaningful change to the lives of these children through the CarePoint. And, honestly, I am so incredibly excited and humbled to have the chance to go on this Partner Visit—I can't wait to finally meet Genevive in person!


Prayerful Request

As I mentioned, I have a request I hope you will prayerfully consider. This visit is a 10-day trip, budgeted at approximately $3,000–$3,500. Four of those days will be spent directly at the CarePoint in Magoro. The most anticipated moment of the trip will be the opportunity to meet all the children, especially Genevive, in person!


I humbly ask that you prayerfully consider making a financial contribution to help fund this visit. Every donation, no matter the size, makes a difference. These funds will cover not only the travel expenses but also necessary pre-trip vaccinations and supplies.
