This conversation happened about a year and a half ago, and life for the Tucker family has kept moving since. When we sat down with Joshua and Kelly, they were deep in the work of Sustainability Coordinators for Hope for Home in Guatemala. Since then, Kelly's stepped back from her role as Director of Missionary Care to focus on their now family of five, and Joshua has moved into a brand new role as General Property Manager at Community of Hope, the ministry's newest base under development. He even opened a small woodworking shop near their home, giving him more time with the guys on the street he's grown to love.
