Travel

We love to travel. Up until now our travel has been limited to work or pleasure. We are now adding LAMb activities to our travels! This blog will hopefully allow you to follow our adventures. Our thoughts, our views, dreams, and adventures. Follow along if you wish. If no one follows that's fine as well. It's just a place for us to remember . . .

Fundraising!

I need to get creative!  I need to figure out how I can do fundraising for our missions trip in April and in general fundraising for LAMb.  This is indeed a challenge.  I'm not sure how, where, etc.

Anyone have any thoughts or ideas?  Share them please!!!!

Cost of Travel

Today I looked at ticket prices to Kyrgyzstan and was reminded that this isn't inexpensive.  How does one go about raising funds to help travel for missions?  This is my yearly trip quandary.  The other's face this each time they need to head out to the mission field - several times a year.

Lord, my prayer is that you provide the funds for the LAMb Team to do the work you need done . . .

Blogging . . .

Blogging is HARD!  It's hard to keep doing it and to be faithful.  Some people are great at it.  I'm not but I will keep trying.

Lots have happened since I last wrote.  I have been to Brazil twice for work, Canada to help mom and Lynn at the cottage, Indianapolis for and Adoption fair representing LAMb International.

BIG news is that Randy and I have booked with LAMb our return to Kyrgyzstan next year!!!!  We can't wait!  We are so eager to make it back.  We will be leaving April 6, 2012 and staying two weeks.  I've heard how people say they long to go back to the mission field.  I now understand that.  I am eager and long to go back to Kyrgyzstan and any other country that God would lead us.  I made many friends there and I want to see them again!

Preparation will now be underway.  We need to raise funds for our travels and to use while there.  It's in God's hands.

We are also as a couple wanting to promote LAMb and help build their general fund to help them have the funds needed to meet the needs that they come across.  The needs are great; coal for the long cold winters, printing of the critically needed training materials to change the future of the children in the system, monies for the team to travel as issues arise and opportunities present themselves, I could go on and on.  Monies in the general fund allow the team to meet all of the different needs as they come up!

We are praying that opportunities present themselves for us to speak at churches and organizations.

We are praying for opportunities to display and discuss LAMb at other adoption fairs and events around the tri-state area.

We are praying that God will use us here to support LAMb anyway He see possible.

We are praying that God blesses the team to allow them MORE time in the mission field and not worrying about how to raise the monies to do the work they need to do.

Please join us in these prayers.

Blessings!
