There is a time for everything




... And this is a time to encourage.

Over the past two years I have been on an amazing journey that I sometimes still have to pinch myself to believe. I have been priviledged to be part of work that I deeply believe God has for this time and have found that there is nothing I can compare to the feeling of having partnered with God and seeing Him move in so many miraculous ways that I would have to write a book to document.

I have worked with several businesses and have had the honor to walk alongside them as they grapple with God's purpose for their businesses and how they can use those businesses to further His Kingdom. For some, it has not been about the business at all, but about the state of their hearts in relationship with Him. For others, it's been marriages that needed some some encouragement in the right direction, and for some it has been truly submitting their businesses over to Him.

In all cases, it has required tremendous faith and trust in God that He knows what He is about and has nothing but good plans for their lives even in the face of extreme or impossible circumstances.

Walking out a plan is not easy, and as with all human beings, we all need encouragement sometimes. This is such a time for some of these past clients and I plan to visit some of the clients in Indonesia to offer such support this fall.

This is also an opportunity to celebrate all that God has done since the first rep venture in Indonesia just a few short years ago.
I am in the process of fundraising for this 10 day venture and need some encouragement myself as funds are a bit low right now. And I have to trust God for this small step myself as my fundraising is not even comparable to the life-changing decisions some of these clients have taken that have ramifications for their families and in some cases, a whole society.

Here is how you can help:

Donate via rēp (A 3% administrative fee will be applied to all donations. You will be mailed a tax-deductible receipt):

Company Matching: Please remember that many companies match their employee’s donations of either finances or time given by the employee to the non-profit organization. Please see the rēp website for more information.

Frequent Flyer miles are also very appreciated though not tax-deductible.
I also need prayer partners to provide covering while on the road so please let me know if you can participate this way.

I so look forward to sharing more of the stories and testimonies that are bound to come forth from this trip with you.

God Bless.
