Dominican Republic or bust!

Normally, when it comes to missions and fund-raising, we would love to talk with each one of you, and send you personal letters. We don't like asking you to partner with us only in the form of a blog post....We just don't have the time on this one! :) 


We have an exciting opportunity coming up, and you also have an opportunity, 
to serve Haitian refugees in the Dominican Republic
with the Reid Saunders Association (RSA) - www.reidsaunders.org
 


Even though it's a somewhat complicated story, we'll be brief:

  • Several months ago we were asked to fly an airplane Jan 24-Feb 4 from Oregon to the D.R. full of medical supplies and/or people
  • The owner of the airplane along with some others were paying for all expenses for us and another pilot to go
  • The medical supply donation was canceled, thus the need for the airplane became nonexistent
  • We were then 'not going'
  • Later, the Lord said, 'Yes, you are going'
  • We will both be serving the sick and injured in a medical clinic run for 10 days in post-earthquake Haitian refugee camps
  • RSA has asked us to raise some money to help cover the costs that are now not being paid for by others
  • We know God works in the eleventh hour and sometimes He amazes us at what HE can do in that late hour!


We have about $1000.
We need $1000-1500 more (which is pretty cheap).


If you are called to send us, here is the link where you can give online:

Please put our names in the box for which ministry you're donating to....


If you prefer to give any other way, please call or write to us.
Above all, know that we appreciate your support of our family with all that you do - 

PRAYER, love, encouraging words, and always challenging us to grow deeper in the love of Jesus.



Thank-you for heeding the call! We love you so much!
