GREEN LIGHT
MALAWI!!!
We
have great news!!!
It’s
an incredible joy to tell you that God
has powerfully provided on our behalf! He
has dramatically removed the financial
obstacle that was keeping us from
beginning our service in
Africa!
Just
a few days ago, a single donor
volunteered to bridge the 33% gap in our
monthly support, bearing the burden of
our monthly expenses until it is picked
up by individual supporters.
One
remarkable implication: if you were
considering
partnering with us
financially, there’s still
plenty of room to do so. Any
support we receive from now on definitely
won’t go to waste! On the contrary,
future giving will free our donor to use
their money to assist other new
ministries.
At
the same time, this also means that we
are ready to leave for Malawi!
We’re
very humbled at the generosity of all of
you who are partnering with us: the
givers, the prayers, the encouragers,
everyone. We’re so thankful for
God’s display of providence and
grace. We have no doubt that God
has sovereignly planned every step of our
journey. Through it all, He has
grown our faith and strengthened our
confidence that Malawi is where He would
have us serve in the church.
And
now, we’re so excited that we have the
opportunity to take the next step in this
great journey - we’re moving to Malawi!
Leaving on a
Jet Plane
What
everyone wants to know is: When are we
leaving? And the answer is: Monday,
May 18th. We have a very short list
of things that we need to do before we
leave. All of our
household goods are already in
Malawi and have cleared
customs - Praise the Lord! All we
have with us now are the four suitcases
that we’ll take on the airplane.
It’ll only take us a little time to pack
and wrap up loose ends, so we’ll be
spending most of the time saying goodbye
to family and friends!
Commissioning
Service and Going-Away
Party
We
know our remaining days will fill up
fast, but we want to share our joy in
God’s faithfulness with you!
On
Sunday, May 17, Grace Community Church
will be commissioning us as GMI
missionaries at the end of the evening
service. Afterwards, two fellowship
groups - Cornerstone and Foundry - will
be hosting a going-away party for us on
the Grace Church campus.
Please come
and join us for both of these
events!

Thanks!
We
are so thankful for your support and
encouragement! The Lord has blessed
us greatly, and we know that He has
answered your prayers!
As we
make this move, we’ll keep
the blog updated, so follow
along with us as we see what the Lord has
in store for us next!
