A Look Back at 2019: Serving and Connecting Across the Globe
Peru: Transforming Lives Through Medical Missions
2019 was a year full of incredible adventures and encounters. Team Gather & Co had the privilege of serving in various locations around the world, spreading the love of Christ and providing medical, dental, and optical care to thousands of people in need. From Peru to Canada, Redding, and beyond, here’s a recap of the year:
In January and June of 2019, we traveled to Peru, serving over 14,000 people in just four weeks. Through medical, dental, and optical clinics, we provided essential services and touched countless lives. Payton and Kelly also had the opportunity to teach English in local schools and share the love of Jesus with children in the community.
Kelowna, Canada: Sharing Identity in Christ
In September, Kelly had the honor of speaking at a conference in Kelowna, Canada, where she addressed the theme of identity in Jesus. This experience was a powerful reminder of God’s love and our worth in Him.
Redding, California: Celebrating 25 Years of Marriage and Ministry
October took us to Redding, California, where Corbett and Kelly attended a conference focused on helping others encounter Christ’s love. It was also a special time for them as they celebrated 25 years of marriage. Their journey continues to be one of growth and shared adventures in faith.

Helpful Home Tips for the Winter Season
Preparing Your Home for Texas Winter Weather
As the colder months approach, it’s essential to prepare your home to ensure it remains safe and efficient during winter. Here are some helpful tips:
Concrete Driveway Maintenance
While cleaning your concrete driveway might seem like a minor task, it can save you from future cracks and wear. During freezing temperatures, using playground sand on your driveway can help prevent icing, ensuring safer access to your home. Be sure to clean your concrete with a phosphate-free cleaner to preserve its integrity and prevent damage to the sealer.
Protect Outdoor Faucets
Don’t forget to remove garden hoses from hose bibs and place foam covers over outdoor spigots to avoid freezing. This simple step can prevent costly plumbing repairs.
Swimming Pool Care
If you have a swimming pool, make sure to turn the pump on to keep the water flowing. This will prevent damage caused by stagnant water during freezing temperatures.
Care for Your Pets
Make sure to bring in outdoor pets or provide extra protection from the cold weather. A warm cover or blanket can go a long way in keeping your fur-babies comfortable during the winter months.

There are a few things to consider when trying to decide whether a tiled shower or an acrylic shower is right for you. First, think about your budget. Tiled showers can be more expensive to install than acrylic showers, so if cost is a factor, acrylic may be the better option. Second, think about maintenance. Acrylic showers are easier to clean and require less upkeep than tiled showers. Finally, think about your personal preferences. Do you prefer the look of tile, or the ease of acrylic? Ultimately, the decision comes down to what you value most in a shower.
