I’m Going to See the USA in my…Suzuki?

21 Apr

Do you remember the old Chevy commercial? “See the USA in your Chevrolet”?
I’ve always wanted to do that. I didn’t really expect to be able to before I left. But once again, God’s attention to detail is fantastic! Directly after this course is over on May 2nd, I will head out on a driving tour of the eastern USA. This will give me an opportunity to visit with more friends/supporters and meet some new churches. It will also give me time to commune with God is his glorious creation!! I’ll be heading through Minnesota, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, New York, West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, and Texas. If you live in one of those areas, or nearby, I would love to stop in and see you!
I love sharing the passion God has given me for Zambia and about what HE is doing in my life. If you know of any churches, groups, or individuals who might like to hear more about my calling or place of ministry, please let me know. :-D

It’s a Date!!!

20 Apr

No, it’s not that kind of date! It’s a date to leave for Zambia!
WOO HOO!!!!!
In the past, any date I gave was always tempered with: “I hope to leave by…” and “Once I have 100% of my support committed I’ll get to go, but I’m not really sure when that is.” Now that I have finally given my time line up to God, He has given me permission to set a real date. So AUGUST 30th it is!!!
That doesn’t change the fact that my support level still needs to be at 100%. Right now it is at 62%. Would you prayerfully consider helping me reach that goal? If you have any questions about the support process, please feel free to contact me.

Finally – A Real Update!!

18 Apr

Wow!! Everything is moving at warp speed these days, and I’m just trying to keep up!
So much has happened in the past three months, I can hardly fathom it all. I am constantly amazed at how God orchestrates the details of my life! To Him be all the glory!!
Since putting my house back on the market in February, I have 3 separate offers on it!! Since the housing market has gone downhill so significantly throughout the country, I am having to sell my home for less that what I owe the bank (called a “short sale”). So the bank will have the final say on which offer is accepted. Since I am current on my mortgage payments, they really have no reason to move quickly. Banks tend to deal with properties going into foreclosure first. However, we serve a God of miracles. Please pray with me that God will move in the bank employees to process my paperwork quickly and allow me to be released from this responsibility.
The workshop I attended in February in Vancouver, WA was a wonderful experience. Eight different missions agencies were represented at this conference. All were somehow related to mission aviation. The trainers focused on teaching us how to raise capital support for our various missions. Flying Mission will be able to use that information and the tools to raise the $3 million needed to firmly establish our new station in Zambia.
