Prayer Update

This has been the hardest month for us since joining the NNYM. Like many of you, our current hardships involve the lack of money. God has been faithful through our supporters and now we are looking for him to be faithful in by providing a second job for me.? I would rather have a second job and keep doing this ministry rather than not do this ministry.

I hope the second job is a season rather than a lifestyle, but if it is a lifestyle, so be it. I am committed to this ministry because the needs are so huge in every aspect of my job

Here are some encouraging things that have happened this past month..

• I consoled a youth worker who was fired and helped him form a game plan for his next steps.
• I co-led three seminars at the Simply Youth Ministry Conference and served on their Ministry in the Valley care team.
• I am going to be a regular contributor to Group Magazine. I will write about networking, being better together, in their Tools section.
• I was also asked to be a convention pastor at both of the 2010 National Youth Worker Conventions by Youth Specialties.

Pray for:

1.???????? $1,500 more per monthly supporters.

2.???????? A second job that will allow me to provide for my family.

3.???????? A job for Tonja after graduation.

Therefore we do not lose heart.. . So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

2 Corinthians 4:16-18
