Folks the cost of living is hi. But great news! The cost of supporting a missionary to expand the reach of the gospel has never been better. Just pick the cost. It can’t be too much and it can’t be too little. All you have to do is look at how much God has blessed you and pray about it.
Here some info that we found very exciting and wanted to quickly share with you.
NTM’s recommended monthly support for a family of 4 in West Africa: $4,860
We are currently at $2,107
We need to be at 75% to leave in January 2014. 75% is $3,645
We need $1,538 more to reach 75%
We need $2,753 more to be at 100%
Here are some possible plans that you could fit into to help us reach the 75% mark
30 co-workers giving $50 a month
60 co-workers giving $25 a month
154 co-workers giving $10 a month
Or, we could mix it all up into one combo of
15 co-workers giving $50, 10 co-workers giving $30, 10 co-workers giving $25, and 24 co-workers giving $10.
The Lord blesses us so that we can be a blessing to the world. We happen to live in a world that needs compassion. You can’t put a price on giving compassion to people who have no idea such a concept even exists. Please pray about being a part of Gods plan to reveal himself to all Nations!
