July 2010
Dear family and friends,
Greetings to all of you in Jesus’ name. Thank you in advance for taking time to read this update letter about our lives as we serve with the WMF community in Lima, Peru. We are anticipating our US visit 2010 to be a rather full schedule for our family and would appreciate your prayers for us especially as we will be moving around a lot. Here is our itinerary:
June 24-July 2: San Francisco, CA area. Our dear friends Sarah Dobrin and Sebastian Sevilla are getting married!
July 2-8: Columbus, OH visiting family, friends, and supporters
July 9-12: Des Moines, IA visiting Monica Ghali (WMF Peru staff) and her family
July 12-22: Nebraska City, NE for the WMF Staff Gathering
July 22-25: Kansas City, MO visiting friends and supporters
July 25-August 4: Columbus, OH visiting family, friends, and supporters
August 1st: sharing at Cornerstone Christian Fellowship in Columbus, OH
This year has been difficult for our family financially, as we have made known to you through our previous prayer letters. In preparation for our US visit, we delayed purchasing our plane tickets due to lack of funds. Thankfully, in June we were able to purchase tickets due to a large one-time donation that covered the cost completely! Thank God! Aside from that one-time gift, however, we actually lost ground in our attempt to reach our $10,000 goal we challenged you with last year. As of the end of May 2010, we had a positive account balance of only $200 (graph). So, we are going to maintain this challenge for you to help us raise $2,000 above and beyond regular monthly giving to help us reach our $10,000 goal.
We believe that God will supply all of our needs, according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Thank you in advance for your prayers, for loving us, and for helping sustain us in ministry in Peru with Word Made Flesh.
