     We all need to Discover.  Sometimes we Discover by learning, other times it may be noticing something for the first time.  Perhaps something recently has been revealed to us, whatever the case we Discover.  The Storie Family has been through the Discover process of their new life and and ministry in Perry County, Alabama.  We have discovered the culture and way of life for the folks in Perry County.  We have discovered the many challenges and problems they face.  We have noticed for the first time what generational poverty looks like and are beginning to understand life from a different set of shoes.  We have discovered apathy and seen hopelessness on many faces.  However, we have Discovered that God is here with the people amidst their struggles.  We have experienced God reveal a mission and a purpose for our family as we work with the community.  We have learned that our Discovery process will always be ongoing as we constantly learn about our community, notice their evolving needs, and have revealed our God-given mission here.

     Discovery is empowerment of knowledge, humbling of self, and guiding of purpose.  We hope that you will commit to pray for our family, the people of Perry County and CBF Together for Hope as we strive to be the presence of Christ to our own community.  We hope that you will also covet with God to Discover your community, to perhaps notice the poor, to learn their needs, and partner with God to make a difference.
