Prayer Needs Update

We have a new target date to be ready to leave for the field.  Originally the date was April 1st.  That has now been pushed back to June 1st.  We must reach 100% of our budget before we will be allowed to embark!  We have been blessed this month to again have several churches and individuals join our support team with a monthly pledge (these monthly pledges make up our budget) and we are now officially at around 65%.  So we have about 80 days to raise the remainder of monthly pledges!

We mailed out a creative project this month, a little missions package, to several churches that we have yet to visit during our year of being on the road.  We are hoping that from this - many pastors will become acquainted with us - and either have us come for a service or become a monthly pledge partner.

-So please pray that MARCH will be another MIRACLE month!!!  Pray for FAVOR.  Pray for God to move the hearts of the pastors and missions boards to join our support team and get us to the field so that we can begin creating the media that is so desperately needed to reach and disciple the lost in more than 53 different countries!!

-We are beginning the process of FBI background checks and collecting documents for the Spain Consulate this week.  Please pray that this process goes quickly and smoothly.  Pray that we have divine favor and everything moves according to God's timeline with no delays.

-Please begin to pray now that God will put pieces of the puzzle together for when we begin our assignment creating the media needed for outreach overseas.  Pray that He will begin now to prepare the soil of people's hearts to RECEIVE the message about Jesus and that lives will be ETERNALLY changed.

-Please begin to pray now about the moving process.  There are so many details about packing up everything that you own into a container and shipping it overseas - that it makes my head whirl!  Please pray for everything to be smooth, and for us to once again have divine favor in every step of the process.

-Please begin praying now that once we get to Spain - God will quickly open the doors for us to find a place to live - and that it will be the perfect house for us at an affordable price.

-Please continue to pray that learning the language will be incredibly God anointed for us!  Pray that God prepares our minds to grasp the language quickly!

-And last but certainly not least  - PLEASE PRAY FOR THAT BUSINESS OWNER THAT MADE A LARGE DONATION TO OUR ACCOUNT LAST MONTH!  He is needing a miracle in His business.   Even though his business is struggling - he gave sacrificially to help us get to our field - and I am asking our prayer team to please PRAY for him.  Call him and his business out in prayer to God... for blessing, favor, and that God will open the windows of heaven and pour out a blessing so large that he will not be able to contain it!!!

THANK YOU - Friends, Family, and Prayer Team....it is through your love and support that we will see the hand of God move on our behalf.  We love you!
