The 4-Wheel Drive Ministry Has Begun!

IMG00423-20110506-1624This has been a very full week and I haven’t had a chance to do any updates on the blog, but I wanted to take a moment to share a praise. As you know we have been praying for God’s provision for a 4-wheel drive vehicle that we can use for our rural village ministry. I am pleased to report that God has answered those prayers!

We received a $10,000 donation two weeks ago that has enabled us to purchase a well-maintained 1995 Toyota Forerunner with an off-road package. With the help of a Christian mechanic and our friend Esdras we have been searching for the right vehicle for over a month in faith that the money would be available when we found the right one. We believe this vehicle will be the perfect fit.

With a powerful engine and a rugged suspension it should be able to handle the rough conditions we encounter on a regular basis in route to the families we serve. And, at a price tag of $6,500 we will be able to make the necessary modifications, purchase needed equipment and still have about $2,000 left over for maintenance in the months ahead.

Please join us in praising God for His provision and asking Him to protect our team and make them effective as they travel and serve. Thanks!
