In just 32 days, our family will once again board a plane loaded with 15-20 duffle bags and spend nine hours flying from Atlanta to Buenos Aires to begin our new chapter as missionaries serving in Argentina! To say that we are excited is an understatement!

We are thankful for Patrick and Leslie Henry and their willingness in finding a house for us that is available when we arrive April 1st! I am thrilled to say, that they have found the one! We were able to secure it with a small security deposit and they signed paperwork on our behalf!

Something specific to pray for about the house we secured is; we will be required to pay up to four months rent in advance before moving into the house! This will be a deposit and three months rent all in advance! Please pray that God will meet this need along with our set up costs!

God is continuing to bless our furlough and support raising efforts! We learned of two new supporters just this week and are praying that several others that said they would be voting soon, will be notifying us shortly! Will you pray with us for this as well?!

Also, we received a generous love offering from another church’s Sunday school classes that brought in $1300 toward our set up fund needs! This will be used to help us gather furniture, appliances, and other household items that we will need in 32 days!

Our visa paperwork is off being apostilled, which is a special stamp needed for the visa completion process in Argentina. This process will cost roughly $2000 alone!

If you’d like to be a part in helping with set up needs; here is a list of some items that will be needed:
2 cars with roughly 100,000 km – $12,000
4 months rent for deposit on house – $4,160 beds for the family – $1450
couch and love seat – $900
Washer and dryer – $1200
American size refrigerator – $1000

Happy New Year!

Another year has come and gone! Our furlough is winding down, and we are looking forward to getting on the field, and jumping into new ministry! We’ve greatly enjoyed reporting into supporting churches, and presenting in many new churches, but our heart is on the field!

December was a great month with lots of travel, time with family, and an amazing weekend getaway with my bride! I am truly thankful and honored to be able to serve the Lord with this life of adventure!

As you all are so faithful to pray; please continue to remember the additional support we are raising for Argentina. With the cost of living increase alone; we are asking churches to consider partnering with us to reach Argentina with the gospel of Christ.

Also, we would like to ask you to continue to intercede on our behalf for our set up fund! We praise the Lord that the cost of our airfare has now been covered! Others have promised to help with our set up fund needs, and we have been earnestly setting aside to save as much as possible.

If you would like to be personally involved with our set up fund needs; here are a few items that you can be a part in helping with:

2 cars with roughly 100,000 km – $12,000
Washer and dryer – $1200
American size refrigerator – $1000

If you have any questions, or would like to know how to be a part of meeting this need, please do not hesitate to contact me! All of our information is listed to the right.

Thank you all for your continued love, prayers, and support of our family!

December 2019 Prayer Letter

I’m so amazed at God’s provision and blessings over the last several weeks! November has been an exciting month watching God meet needs and give abundantly what we can ask or think! We sure serve a good God!

Our family had the privilege to be in some wonderful churches and hear of new ministry partners! One of the highlights of the month was an impromptu tour of the east wing of the White House!

In October, we were a part of Fairfax Baptist Temple’s Missions Sunday and met a wonderful family; the Jensens’ as they hosted us for lunch. Bro Joel worked at the White House from the Reagan administration, all the way to our current Trump administration! Recalling his stories only made that White House tour more special!

I want to also take a moment and give God praise for supplying the funds needed to cover our airfare as we prepare to depart for Argentina at the end of March! One of our faithful, long time supporters; Victory Baptist Church in Kingston, TN sent us $5,000 toward our set up fund needs! We are extremely grateful for their generosity!

If you would like to be involved with helping toward our set up fund, here are a few items that we will be needing to raise funds toward:
2 Cars w/ roughly 100,000 km – $12,000
Washer and dryer – $1200
American size refrigerator – $1000

If you would like to know how you can be involved in giving toward this, or have any questions concerning out set up needs, please do not hesitate to contact me!

Thank you all for your love, prayers, and support of our family!
