hi everyone
thanks for all your prayers and support, we've come along way
havent we. so far this past week in Culiacan i've rented a house,
gotten a job, started pulling together this seasons ministry team and even
managed to speak twice at the small church gatherings in villa juarez.
I've even got two lovely roommates moving into the house in culiacan with
me. I cant thank you enough for the words of encouragement, funds of
faith, but mostly your prayers. God indeed has done it! ... and a whole
lot faster than i was ever imagining!
so, many of you have been asking about the new missions
organization i'll be going with. Their name is Agape Mission
Projects. They have focused on indigenous people groups in Mexico for
about the past 20 years. It was my privelage this past summer to be
accepted as one of their full time missionaries. The founder is Sheri
Burk who based her ministry in Oaxaca for years, you can read more about her on
the website http://www.agapeprojects.org/
. Mike Hendricks is on the board and has stepped in as my mentor, helper,
and oft-time driver for my ministry in mexico. Mike will be coming into
San Luis Obipso with Cora his wife october 9th. Natalie is already
planning a dinner party in my backyard so you all can meet mike and hear more
about agape projects, their vision and scope of ministry in addtion to my plans
for this coming season of ministry in Culiacan. Be sure not to miss it:
October 11th
6:00pm

Lastly, I wanted let you all know that from now on all
donation funds can go through apape projects. On the website, you can
look for my bio under "the team" or go straight to the donation
tab. There you will find a drop down menu that allows you to make a one
time or recurring auto payment through paypal. simply select
"sally" as the designation for the funds and i will receive your gift
with a grateful heart. For those of you who would rather use the mail, you
may write a check out to:
Agape Mission Projects
(write "sally" in the memo line and
mail to)
P.O. Box # 151

I'm so thankful for the
support and leadership Agape is giving me but First Baptist Church will always
be my home church, full of my best friends, and best prayer partners too.
Thanks for taking this journey with me and I look forward to seeing most
of you this sunday at church!
God is good, in fact,
better than expected ;o)
