For years, anytime we thought about pursuing missionary aviation full time as we felt God was leading us, there were two major obstacles. We took a year preparing for the first one, and passed the technical evaluation last fall. Then we somewhat apprehensively focused our efforts on the second: finding enough people that believed in us and the Kingdom to commit to supporting us financially, enough that the physical needs of our family could be met while we serve missionaries and national pastors church planting among unreached people groups in East Central Africa.
We are beyond thrilled to tell you that we have reached our monthly support goal! (Still working on our onetime Outgoing Fund.) Miracles do happen! God is so big! We could never ever have made this happen. I was in complete shock when Patrick told me that two more churches had decided to share in our vision for Christ centered churches grow and flourish among the unreached, and those two churches put us at 100%!!!! Two months before our deadline! We are so excited, and humbled. So humbled that the Lord, and you, our partners, would see fit to send us to be ambassadors of His Gospel of redemption and reconciliation, to the ends of the earth. We want nothing more than to see God be worshiped among every tribe, tongue, and nation on earth. Thank you for being a part of making that happen, both here in our hometowns and cities, and in parts where His great name is not yet known. Each and every one of us has the chance to live our lives for the fame of His name!
Here in this worn and weary land,
Where many a dream has diedLike a tree planted by the water,
We never will run dry
So living water flowing through
God we thirst for more of You
Fill our hearts and flood our souls
With one desire
Just to know You and
To make You known
We lift Your name on High
Shine like the sun make darkness run and hide
We know we were made for so much more
Than ordinary lives
It's time for us to more than just survive
We were made to thrive
Into Your word we're digging deep
To know our Father's heartInto the world we're reaching out
To show them who You are
So living water flowing through
God we thirst for more of You
Fill our hearts and flood our souls
With one desire
Just to know You and
To make You known
We lift Your name on High
Shine like the sun make darkness run and hide
We know we were made for so much more
Than ordinary lives
It's time for us to more than just survive
We were made to thrive
Joy Unspeakable
So living water flowing through
God we thirst for more of You
Fill our hearts and flood our souls
With one desire
Just to know You and
To make You known
We lift Your name on High
Shine like the sun make darkness run and hide
We know we were made for so much more
Than ordinary lives
It's time for us to more than just survive
We were made to thrive
Into Your word we're digging deep
To know our Father's heartInto the world we're reaching out
To show them who You are
So living water flowing through
God we thirst for more of You
Fill our hearts and flood our souls
With one desire
Just to know You and
To make You known
We lift Your name on High
Shine like the sun make darkness run and hide
We know we were made for so much more
Than ordinary lives
It's time for us to more than just survive
We were made to thrive
Joy Unspeakable
Faith Unsinkable
Love Unstoppable
Anything is possible!
