Okay...... here is a rare second post for the day in which the Lord is getting on me today about humbling myself and asking for help..... sometimes you just got to stick your neck out there and ask for things when you are in need.....The Bible is clear on the fact that we are NOT supposed to go at it alone.... WE NEED EACH OTHER...I know what you are saying....trust God.He will make a way... True!!! and YOU may be the way He chooses to make the way.. That said here are some needs we have in regards to our big move to the Philippines on JUNE 30th.I thought I would give some of you folks who are still deciding on how to help us some ideas as to what you could do........ Let me know if you are interested in helping.......
1. Shipping Supplies to the Philippines.... Each box is about 100 bucks to send... we have 4... This is not included in our money to live on while there.....
2. Car Insurance.... It is $35 a month to cover my car while I'm gone.... That way I don't have to turn in my tag and I can use it when I come home for Christmas..... You could give this each month or just get it over with and pay $420 at one time....
3. Food.... In an effort to save as much of our own money as we can Matt and I have been eating really well at other folks houses... Frank Starosto, Joye and Diane Hall, Brenda Blackwell, Eddie and Pam Davis, Pam Ray, Vickey Allen, Ginger Darwin....etc... Please forgive me if I left you off... This is not just about food either...We have had a great time hanging out with all of these folks one final time before we leave..... If you are interested in having us over...let me know...
4. Tickets to Return after Christmas.... Some of you may know that we are planning to come home for Christmas.... As of now we have the tickets, but we have not been able to purchase the tickets to return after Christmas....This depends on our supporters..... If we don't get it then we will not be home till Next May.... Email me for me details.... The estimated cost is $4,000
I realize that some of you will see this blog as a sad man using the Internet to beg for money.... DON'T!!!!!!!!!!! I am a happy man in the Lord who understands that the Lord's people want to help those in need and help spread the Gospel but can not do it unless they know what the needs are.....
This is not begging... it's me giving you a chance to get involved in the Lord's work by partnering with us... I am confident that some of you who read this have been praying about your involvement.... You may have even asked the Lord to give you a specific number...... I see 3 in this blog alone........ SHEW!!! Ain't He Just Good!!!!!!... I love you guys and look forward to hearing which one of you were talking to Him about this today....... He laid it on my heart write this just for you!!! WAHOO!!!!
