Just Ten Days till Columbus Day!
We’re hoping to celebrate Columbus Day – for the first time ever, maybe 🙂 – and certainly like never before. After pursuing the Lord for these faith goals for many months, we’re still hopeful that He will supply the remaining needs by October 9th. Yet, there’s still a long way to go – a miraculous amount to be accomplished in such a short time.
Pray for the Lord to do even more than this list asks, but here are the basics:
- Ask God to respond in ways that make Him the center of attention – and will remind others of His true character and purposes.
- Specifically, by October 9th, pray that the Lord would choose to provide the right people to give joyfully. We currently still need a minimum of $746 in monthly commitments.
- Not only pray that God will provide the right people, but also pray that we would be able to talk to these people in person. Pray that when we call people, we would not get a voicemail message, but get to talk. Also pray we could talk to many face to face.
- Would God use you to answer some of these prayers? Let us know if you can introduce us to someone who would like to learn more about what God is doing in our ministry (no obligation to give). Â
- If you are already giving regularly to our ministry, would the Lord have you increase your giving? Perhaps even by $10 or $20 per month or $100 per year?
- Another huge need is for God to supply a buyer for our house here in Mableton. We aren’t able to look at houses in Orlando until our house here sells. Pray that the person God wants to live here next will see our house and give us an offer by October 9th.
- Pray that the Lord would prepare us to move. We feel prepared but there are hundreds of details that must be taken care of.Â
- Pray for our whole family to walk closely with Jesus.
- Pray that we would praise the Lord for His pure greatness, regardless of what happens on Columbus Day.
So, To Recap:
1)  Minimum Support Needed: $746 in monthly commitments (or annual equivalents). Works out to just about 10 new people at $75/month.
2) Â House:Â Would like to have a buyer by October 9th.
As of this morning, here’s where we’re at:
(Not geographically, but as a representation of how much support we still need in order to move.)
For those of you who like to do the math: Orlando is about 450 miles from Atlanta; We’ve seen the Lord provide $1,654 out of the needed $2,400/month in additional support; . . . so the corresponding ratio yields 310 miles traveled out of the total 450.
