Funding Status Report

We’re off to a good start with raising support! My recent report from SAMS shows that I have one-third of the monthly/annual support required as well as one-third of the cash I need to have in my SAMS account before I can be certified to depart for Uganda. A big THANK YOU to all who have joined as partners in this ministry!

Please continue to pray for the remaining support to flow in. The required amounts are $3,000 per month in pledged support plus a total of $22,500 cash in my SAMS account. These amounts are what SAMS has budgeted based on the the various aspects of this ministry in Uganda and a small portion for my living expenses.

Blessings to you all, and thank you.

The Lord provides!

Thanks be to God, I begin a new job this Thursday, 7/16. It’s with a good law firm located downtown and I’m familiar with some of the people there. I had actually interviewed with them a couple of years ago and was all but promised a job, but then the partners decided they really didn’t need to hire another paralegal yet. They just had a paralegal leave and when they saw my resume, which I sent out yesterday, they called right away since they already knew me. 🙂

God’s timing is always perfect!

Update

FURNITURE. Well, another piece of furniture exited my front door this evening, and more cash went into my pocket. There are only a few more furniture items to sell, but lots of “stuff” left. I need to have a garage sale, so I’m praying someone will volunteer their garage/drive way for this – soon. Any volunteers?

CONDO. The couple that wanted to rent my condo have changed their mind, so I now need to list it with a property management company. I had prayed about this and believe this is what the Lord’s best is in this situation. If the couple had rented it, I wouldn’t have anyone looking after it or taking care of things if anything went wrong, or if for some reason they were unable to pay the rent. And now I don’t have to move so quickly. Thank you for your hand in this, Lord!

I DO have a place to live now once my condo is rented. A dear friend has invited me to come live were her until I leave for Uganda. Again, thank you Lord!

CATS. My two boys need a good home, though. Please be praying for a loving home for them, and let me know if you are interested or if you know of anyone who might want them.

JOB. Oh yeah, almost forgot. When I asked to cut back on my hours at work, my immediate supervisor approved, but HR cut me back to zero! So, I’m looking for a job, preferably temporary or part time so that I can continue preparing for Uganda. I applied for two positions through Monster today. Please pray for the right job to come along – soon.

Thank you for your prayers and for partnering with me in this exciting journey!

In Christ,
Susan

Road Trip!!!

Praise God! I will be going to the inaugural provincial assembly for the new Anglican Church in North America in Texas June 22 – 25. After being incredibly blessed to be at GAFCON last year and witness God move in power amongst those assembled, bringing everyone together as one, I am doubly blessed to witness this historic event as well.

This will also be a great opportunity to touch base with clergy and lay leaders from around the country and share the vision of continued mission partnerships with our brothers and sisters in Uganda. Please pray for divine appointments during this time and that God would use me to encourage churches and individuals to partner with Uganda in missions.

Thanksgivings

Today I turned in my lease car in order to reduce living expenses and save as I prepare to go to Uganda. A wonderful family at Redeemer has loaned me their daughter’s car since she is now away at college and won’t be using it. What a great example of living in an Acts 2:42 community!

I also sold another piece of furniture today. That means one less item to sell, and more money in the bank. Hallelujah!

You know, it’s just down right fun to watch the Lord at work!
