Outreach with September Crossroads too!!!

 

Go into all the World....

I get to staff outreach with the September and January Crossroads DTS! How is this possible since the schools overlap???  It was announced, this week during a staff meeting that the January CDTS is getting moved to April. 😃

Argentina has been on my heart for awhile, but I'm not sure if its for now or the April school outreach; there is another location that God has been bring up lately too, so join me in praying about outreach locations!

The past couple months here in Kona have been a time for much needed rest, to reconnect with friends and help bit in some ministries I was serving in last fall; God has also blessed me with many unexpected "divine appointments" to minister one on one to people here in Kona. These divine appointment seem to be mutual ministry- I ministered to them while they also ministered to me! God is so good 🙌

I am excited for staff training to begin Sept 13 and the students to arrive on Sept. 30th.

(I have updated the prayer and financial needs below to reflect the changes too.)

Prayer and Financial Support

To continue serving with YWAM, it is essential that I have a team of people committed to partnering with me through prayer and financially! Prayer is powerful-I am so grateful whenever I hear that individuals or groups are praying for me. (James 5:13-18; Ephesian 6:12) 🙏 

No part of housing or living expenses are covered by YWAM; all missionaries with YWAM are required to raise their own personal financial support.

Please consider if the Lord is calling you to partner with me, short term or long term. I post specific prayer requests and praise reports on each blog as well as updates on financial needs!

Below are details about my estimated expenses and ways to give financially. One time and recurring donations are both welcome (one time and recurring donations of even $10 or $15 per month are very helpful!😃):

Praise Reports 

1. Many exciting divine appointment over the past couple months!
2. I'm enjoying connecting with other Crossroads DTS staff as they arrive in Kona.

Prayer Requests

1. Financial support for continuing to staff with YWAM
2. Unity for the Crossroads staff (I know I ask prayer for unity a lot! Here's why-John 17:21-23 😃)
3. Fresh and greater measure of the fear of the Lord in my life-that my heart would be surrendered completely to the Lord's leading.
• "While it is very important to obey God because of what He says, it is even more important to obey Him for who He is. In order to test us on this, [God] often tells us to do unusual things that seem to us illogical." (Intimate Friendship with God by Joy Dawson p. 20)
