WHY WE TALK ABOUT FINANCES
Our work in Colombia is not-for-profit and we, as well as our work associates depend entirely upon the generous gifts and contributions of people interested in sharing their resources with those who build the Kingdom of God. Our mission is to do all we can to build His great Kingdom, both here in Colombia and among worldwide unengaged Muslim peoples. The only net result we have ever been able to show those who have so generously given over the years are the lives of those who have been transformed by virtue of our work and life, both here and abroad. In Colombia our principal focus is to recruit, train and then do all we can to mobilize Colombian workers to become agents of transformation in similar fashion, especially among Muslim peoples in far-and-distant lands. We have been a part of some already sent out and continue to be in relationship with many others that we've come to know. There are many reasons we do this work; stay connected to this website and you'll learn why. |
![]() Although our year-long furlough will not officially begin until late 2017 due to the many responsibilities we have here in Colombia (clic here to read more) our four-month ministry obligations beginning this month are requiring the same earnest preparations we had anticipated for what we thought would be a furlough commencing January 2017... we will still travel by RV from California to Texas to meet these obligations and therefore will still need to purchase a tow-vehicle, as we also seek to raise additional personal funds to aid in our lagging personal payroll. We are presently on a "what comes in" basis, i.e. receiving month-to-month what is a fluctuating monthly payroll that has only barely kept up with our budget demands. The car you see here is a 2014 Subaru Forrester, the precisely correct vehicle for towing, its retail value and dependability... a car we are trusting God to enable us to purchase out-right, combining savings, a pre-approved loan and generous year-end contributions. We are thankful to God that have never been for want, always willing to flex where He might have us flex. This next year on into 2018 will stretch us financially in new ways. We're excited to see how God will provide. Please pray with us for this important December 2016 month of year-end giving.

But godliness with contentment is great gain.
For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it.
But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that.
People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap
and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction.
For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil.
Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith
and pierced themselves with many griefs,
1 Timothy 6:6-10.
