News From The North

Greetings from the Great White North,

SNOWED UNDER!
The citizens of Juneau have been dealing with a monster snow storm, now turned to ice, for days.
Mark and Julie have asked us to help them by writing their column this month since they are literally digging out from under at an almost non-stop pace. And, we agreed, of course.

INDIA 2013 MISSION

The date has finally been set, the budget has been determined, and we are now finalizing the speaker roster. Until the date got set, we could not finalize the budget because airfares vary depending on the time of year you plan to fly.

DATE:       April 24 - May 3

BUDGET:                  $5,000.00
Airfare                           $2,500.00
Accommodations
& ground transportation   $1,300.00
Conference expenses           $1,200.00

SPEAKERS
Mark Dyar (LTI Team Leader) and Associate Pastor Norbert Rodriguez (Bethesda Bible Church, Ypsilanti, MI) are confirmed. We are waiting to hear from Pastor Greg Stevens (Immanuel Christian Church, Durban, South Africa), who was a speaker last year, as to whether his schedule will accommodate this year’s Conference dates.

THEME
“Going on the Offensive.” The need to reach the lost with the Good News of Jesus Christ will be addressed and methods of accomplishing the task will be explored.

Now, we must raise the money. We need to receive the $2,500 for Mark’s airfare as soon as possible, preferably no later than March 1st so that we can get the best possible fare. The remaining $2,500.00 needs to be in no later than April 20th.

We ask that you pray with us for the funds to come in a timely fashion. We appreciate any gift, of any size, should the Lord speak to your own heart.

Thanks for all you do, your prayers, your good works, your giving.  You bless and honor us.

Yours for the Kingdom,


Mark and Julie
