Rest & Preparation

Thank you so much for your prayers! Our ministry presentation at Christ Church PCA here in Mankato, Minnesota went very well. I believe that our heart for collegiate ministry and the Gospel was shared effectively, and people are responding. Thank you again, so much.

We arrived safely back to Mankato, MN Thursday night July 31st after a 2 week trip to Willmar, MN to visit friends & have opportunities to share about our ministry & financial needs. Thank you for your prayers during that time for our funding & safe travel.

The very next day, we went camping with Linday's parents to Sakatah State Park (about 30 mins. northeast of Mankato). We had an excellent & necessary time of rest & relaxation after our busy trips.

Now we're back into the regular schedule again & focusing on connecting with friends by phone. Please pray that we will connect with friends & potential financial partners over the phone.

I ask for this because, Linsday and I will officially be leaving for New York on Wednesday, August 13th next week. Thus, a large portion of our fund-raising work will be done via the phone from now on.

We plan to drive 9 hours to a wedding in Holland, Michigan, and then another 9 hours to Ithaca, NY a few days later. Please pray for all the travel preparations that need to happen between now and August 13th!

We are nearing 70% of our budget goal, thank you so much for your faithful petitions on our behalf! We are excited and thankful to see the Lord continue to provide for our needs. Please continue to pray for 100% of our budget goal by August 21st, when the dorms open!

Also, please continue to pray that the Lord would lead us to new friends & churches that would share our vision and partner with us financially! Thank you all for your faithful partnership in prayer & finances. You are truly the Lord's provision in our lives.

Because He is able,

Because He is able,
