We just received our latest update and we have some incredible news to share with all of you.
Our new grand total of support currently in our account and that which is pledged to be given throughout the year is $47,166.85!
Several reasons this amount is significant:
1. This total puts us at 90% of our goal and only $5,135 away from 100%.
2. All of our start-up costs (click here for our budget) are currently in our account.
3. We have more than $6,000 currently in our account that can be applied to our monthly expenses.
Being so close to the goal has made us see a need to shift our thinking and prayers toward preparation. Here are some ways you can pray with us:
- We feel it is appropriate to start asking God to tell us when He wants us to leave. This may or may not be a specific day, but at least a window of time when His timing will be right for us to make the move to the Dominican Republic.
- As we think about leaving home for a year, the thought of all the logistics and details can quickly become overwhelming. Please pray that God will give us wisdom and foresight so the details don't become too much for us to handle.
- We need God to prepare our hearts, minds, bodies and spirits. Everything we know is about to change drastically and without His Spirit leading us we will be lost!
Once again, we want to thank all of you who have been so generous with your time, prayers, encouragement and finances. You are being used by God and you are just as much His Hands & Feet as we are. We love you all and will be praying for each of you regularly!
