Sallys Story: October 2012

Thanks to all of you who were able to attend the fiesta night!

We had a great turn out, wonderful food, singing, and an all around good time. A huge thank you to Natalie Arnett for putting that all together for me. I for one, sincerely enjoyed the opportunity to thank so many of you in person who have been praying for me and who have supported me financially. It was a joy and privilege to recount all that God had done over the summer with your efforts and mine combined.

So tonight i wanted to give you one final update from the states since I'll be flying out of LAX this saturday evening. After so much prayer, plan changing and rearranging, it finally became obvious that God would have me fly down and come back for the van load of stuff in december. Oh well, who needs a couch anyway, wasnt really planning on sitting around down there after all!

What i will do is get right to work on sorting out my work visa, preparing to teach english at TecMilenio, purchasing essentials for the house i've rented with Jael and Esther, and most of all return to visit the indigenous church out in Villa Juarez. Their hunger for greater understanding of the Lord and His ways is so refreshing. I pray i will be able to bless them as much as their passion and commitment blesses me.

I also wanted to give you all an accounting of where i am financially. Of the $700 i've budgeted for monthly expenses i'm about 30% supported. God willing i will be able to offset some of that myself when my visa clears 3-6 months from now. As for my start up goal of $5000 i have about $4000 so far. Thats amazing progress in only three weeks and I thank the Lord for every dollar donated. If God is putting it on your heart to support me financially, you will find the paypal option on the agape website quick and simple to use.

One last news flash: a number of us started praying tuesday night for the Lord to provide a van for the ministry and to bring down stuff in december. mike hendricks informs me that someone has offered a 15 passenger van perfectly suited for this task for only $600. if you're the type that gets excited about things like that and you'd like to contribute toward that van, please let me know right away.

Thank you so much, all of you, for being so helpful and supportive these past few weeks at home. I've felt loved and well cared for and I know you will continue to pray for me and this amazing ministry God has us in together. I'll let you know how things turn out once i arrive and get sorted.

Much love and gratefulness

Sally
