latest from the ritners.
We are doing well. We have had an incredibly busy six weeks, sense moving back from Australia in December. It’s been an awesome time. We were able to spend time with family and friends in Oklahoma and North Carolina. We had an awesome Christmas. It was just a blessed time. We are now working on getting settled in Oklahoma for a little while.
Moving Time: Our latest Newsletter.
Since the beginning of April Josiah and I have felt a little stirring in our hearts about future steps and what’s next with Reef to Outback and YWAM. For a while it was confusing because we’ve been here so long but felt like we were becoming un-attached to a lot of the new ministries and such, until we started talking to each other and realized we should start praying and considering our next step in missions. We also realized our commitments would conclude in December of this year. After a few months of collecting puzzle pieces and much prayer, Josiah and I believe the timing is right for us to move on. We absolutely love Reef to Outback and where it’s going and the people it’s reaching, but our passions and our giftings are not necessarily aligning with where we’re at now.
Happy Thanksgiving!
We wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!! We celebrated Thanksgiving internationally as Reef to Outback last Thursday so we got a head start. Hope everyone enjoys and celebrates family, friends and the Lord!
Stable on the Strand’s birthday
For the annual Stable on the Strand launch, we celebrated it’s 10th birthday this year! We had a birthday cake, fun games and party hats to kick-off Townsville’s premier Christmas event. Reef to Outback is highly involved every year and we hosted the launch this past week.
Ahoy Matey!
What’s a pirate’s favorite country? Arrrr-gentina! Josiah and I participated in the first Reef to Outback Murder Mystery night. We were all given roles and had dinner and had to solve the mystery of who murdered the famous pirate Rovin’ Reynolds.

Office Space
Since coming back from the Cape York Tour, I have been working with one of my good friends in Immigration. The east coast of YWAM bases in Australia submit their visa applications for volunteers all through our office to keep it standard.
Lately it’s been really busy, meaning there are a lot of YWAM volunteers applying to come to Australia! Due to Reef to Outback being assesed through an audit, Naomi was extra busy with her hands in two different piles. So I’ve been helping and love it! I know, I like paperwork, I’m kinda weird. It’s okay, Josiah already knew that.
