raising support update!

Last Sunday Teddy and I had one of our very first support presentation. We aren't necessarily supposed to be doing this before we get trained together in Colorado. But we had the opportunity to speak in front of a SMALL church and we went for it!

We got connected to this church by a guy that works with Teddy. He is the youth leader for the church and his father-in-law is the pastor. When I said small, I really do mean SMALL. There were probably 40 people in the audience. Great small start for us doing presentations. We walked away with $205 one time gifts...from 4 different people and one woman who joined our prayer team! We were thrilled! We built some new relationships and I thought we did GREAT with our actual presentation. It was right around 12 mins long, which included a 5 min ministry video. I was really proud of Teddy for his VERY VERY first support presentation. He did GREAT! For a person who doesn't like public speaking, you would have never known that! :)

Where we are at:

One time gifts-$4,105
new Monthly support- $235/m
Total: $4770 (which includes monthly for may-july)

We still need a lot of money clearly! :) Need around $10,500.

Please please pray with us. We have until August before the money is drafted from our staff account. So we have more time to follow up with people and ask newer people. Please pray that the Lord would give us wisdom on who to ask. We have been specifically praying for a $5,000 check from the get go & have a few friends who are also praying this. Pray for that.

Thanks for your prayers!
