Weekly Update

Last night at one of our extension events I met a wonderful couple from Argentina. They just recently moved here from Miami, and are hoping to settle down. Please pray for more opportunities with the young family. We exchanged information and hope to connect again soon.

Last week Radius, our home church has (almost 100%) decided to move downtown Columbia. This will be a perfect location for another Latino congregation. The even more exciting part is that David and Gabriella live downtown. Please pray as we seek and equip key leaders for this project.

Wednesday night I will be meeting with an entrepreneur about establishing businesses in order to fund missions and church planting. I believe that one of the areas that we have missed opportunities in is the business world. We have been diligent at seeking charitable giving from the business world, but I believe that we can use some of the creative mind that God has given us to do more.

Creative Business is one of the tools we hope to use in Venezuela. Establishing businesses that can support local pastors and mission efforts. We want to establish self-supporting ministries that multiply, not ones that remain dependent for years to come.

Our Venezuelan trip is approaching soon; please pray that God will provide the resources for travel and resources for the various projects.
