June 3 update

What an exciting and busy time. We are just days away from returning to Austria. We had an incredible time of refreshing and encouragement this last week and now we are trying to enjoy the heat with a 9 month old addicted to baths.
We are looking to leave on June 22nd, so lots of stuff to finalize. We are working to wrap up stuff in the US, (do you have any idea how much stuff you have to do to leave the US for 4 years?), making plans to get together with family and friends and triple checking all that we need to send and take to Austria. We still need to finish raising our budget ($120 short) and get all the reports and finances sent to AGWM. Like I said, busy.

2 More Days

We are just two days away from our itineration deadline and excited to see all the miracles that God is doing in our lives as people tell us how they want to partner with us. We still need around $2000 in monthly commitments to meet our pledge budget, but believing God for great results.

4 weeks of excitement left

We are just 4 weeks away from our itineration deadline. I am excited to be able to update the amount of pledges needed almost daily. I will be posting the current amount on the ride sidebar as it changes. We are coming up on a huge marker in our lives and I am trusting God to do great things. I am so grateful for the many individuals and churches who have made commitments in the past 3 months. It has been exciting to see new people becoming partners in ministry to the students of Austria.

what a week

We just experienced one of the highlight weeks in our year last week. Our home church has a vision and faith conference with powerful speakers, faith filled praise and prayer times and an intense sense of God's presence every night. Now is the beginning of a new week. My goal to live in Faith what God spoke to my heart at the Altar, and to live out the vision he has renewed and rekindled in our hearts. With only 50 days until our deadline for raising support it is going to be an incredible adventure.

A week of Meetings

Well, we are down to 9 weeks before our approval to itinerate ends. We are trusting God for an average of $50 in new pledges each day. Thankfully, our cash budget allows us to convert one time gifts now into pledges, just divide by 48! This week I have met with a couple of great churches regarding partnership. I am convinced once again of God's divine providence, his great mission and his church universal. We are looking forward to the empowering work of God as we partner together to reach the nation of Austria. Our mission is a generation transformed by the love of God to transform a nation, a continent, and reach around the world. It is so good to be driven by the passion of God, doing his will, in relationship with him and with one another. Tomorrow is the sectional ministers meeting in Shoreline and I look forward to fellowship with fellow workers, sharing a dream and vision for what God will do here and in Austria.
