We are currently at 55% of our budget. We have $3309 committed. We only need $2691 to be on the field in Brazil. Continue to pray that the Lord will bring people to our team.

On a lighter note, my wife is really good at finding funny/weird youtube videos.  Check out K-Strass.

$50,000

Strike up the band. Ladies and Gentleman we are now finished raising our launching fund of $50,000. This money will go to buying a car, furnishing our apartment, shipping items to Brazil, paperwork and taxes. We are very excited this is finished and we believe this is just more confirmation from God.  We want to say Thank You to everyone that has given. Thank you for giving and thank you for trusting in the Lord and what He will do in Brazil through us.


 Fiat Uno
One of the most popular cars in Brazil.
A portion of our launching fund will go to buying a sweet ride like the Fiat Uno.
Vroom!

The Summertime

I have been away from the blog. An update, the first week in  June Abbey and I were in Atlanta meeting with people.  We enjoyed the opportunity to share our vision for Brazil and the time we spent with family and friends. The second week in June we attended a Support Raising Seminar in Nashville, TN.  We learned a lot and it has helped us tremendously.  After Nashville we headed to Charlotte, NC so I could take a class through Reformed Theological Seminary.  Then after all that we headed back to Peachtree City just in time for the soon to be World Famous 4th of July Parade. Abbey's parents make a float to advertise for their business.  I was able to overcome Brasil's defeat in the World Cup to the Netherlands a day earlier just in time to throw out candy during the parade.   We stayed in Peachtree City the next week and continued to meet with people and share our vision.  We are really excited right now. We've got some momentum.

Now that the 2010 World Cup is over. It's Brasil's turn in 2014. Here is the logo. Get excited.
