NEWS LETTER: AUGUST 2017

Developments:

Last month the Lord provided 100% of our budget—our Lord IS faithful..!

The major development this month is that we got accepted to be part of the GO! Ministries team! We are now official US-based missionaries with a missionary agency behind us legitimizing our efforts, providing pastoral support, accountability and financial organization. From now on our supporters will be able to donate online to our ministry by simply visiting our GO! Ministries web link.

This month we also fully moved to South Florida and are getting settled in the Sunrise area. We are so blessed to reconnect with our home church Calvary Chapel Plantation that is now only a short ten-minute drive away. Father, thank You for our friends… Thank You for the way You love us through them!

I continued on the contracting entry-level engineering job with T-Mobile in Sunrise, FL that the Lord provided me three months ago. This is a long-term project that is supposed to last for at least one year and accounts for 90% of our budget. Father, You are our Provider… Our hope is in You!
