Progress on support-raising

We are excited to say that our team is almost to 80% of our support goal! Thanks to all of you for your generosity as well as your prayers. We are trusting in God to provide for the remainder of our support goal as well as to prepare our hearts and minds. Take-off is less than 5 weeks away!

Our team is working hard to prepare for our time in Oaxaca, Mexico. The dates of our trip are July 26-August 2, so we are in the planning stage for our time there. There is much to do! The plans for our time there are starting to come together. We had some time this week with Janet Ditto. She recently returned from Myanmar, where the team conducted health fairs and screenings. She gave us wonderful ideas of how to use health fairs to connect with people, which is the ultimate purpose of this trip - connecting with people and showing them the love of our Lord!

Prayers are requested for our finances, for the specific directions God wants to take our team, for preparation of our hearts and minds, and for the people we will be serving. Additionally, we will be seeking out donations of pain medicines, antibiotic ointment, vitamins, prenatal vitamins, and allergy medications. If you would like to participate by purchasing any of these items at Costco or somewhere else, we would so appreciate it! For those who have agreed to support us in prayer and/or financially, THANK YOU. We are so excited that you have partnered with us to love the Mixteco people with the love of Christ.
