We were so blessed in NC to have a great time of catching up with one of my cousins and to tour the USS North Carolina battleship.
We’re over halfway through our trip here and have every Sunday scheduled until we leave! For the month of August we’ve been at a church in a different state each Sunday – Indiana, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, then back to Pennsylvania. Last Sunday we were at our sending church,
Community Bible Church in Pennsylvania. This coming Sunday we’ll be in Akron, Ohio at
Lakeside Christian Church’s REACH, a picnic to raise funds for missions, and Lance is giving a short update and the sermon that morning. Then we’re back in Pennsylvania the next Sunday at the
Federated Church for their Sunday morning service and have an update evening for our supporters in the Erie area on the 16th at my brother Mark’s house in Edinboro, PA. After that we are headed down to the DC area for that weekend, then back to PA for the next Sunday. If you’re interested in hearing our update or catching up with us, join us at one of these events or contact us to find out a more detailed schedule.
We were blessed to speak at a new church in North Carolina this past month and hope we will gain new supporters from that morning. It was the first church that we set up a table with things from Thailand to show people, like money and hand-made items, along with pictures from our last country and current pictures from Thailand. It was a great way to connect with people after the service and for people to learn more about Thailand and our ministry when they came to get a prayer card.
Please continue to pray for us as we finish out our time here with one more month of speaking and travel. We are praying for more monthly supporters from individuals to supplement the churches that support us and to get us to where we need to be in our budget.
Thank you for your continued prayers and support!
