France Friday, 5/18/12

Hello again.  Thank you for joining us again to call on our God to do great and mighty things!  Here's a few quick announcements of things going on before I give some prayer needs.

• We have about 10 Chik-Fil-A cheesecakes left that are available for sale for $21.  For each one sold Chik-Fil-A gives us $5 towards our pursuit of France.  Contact Michelle for more details.

•  We're having a Yard Sale at Bartlett Hills Baptist Church on Sat. June 2nd to clean house and raise some more funds for France.  Donations are welcome if you have anything you've been meaning to get rid of.  I'll gladly come and pick it up as well.  Just let me know.   

• For the coffee lovers out there, check out this website:  https://justlovecoffee.com/about/beneficiary/allonsy/    You can purchase organic, fair-trade coffee from various regions around the world and a portion of the proceeds will support our church planting efforts.  Let me know if you would like to me order it wholesale for you (its cheaper that way). Otherwise you can order it on your own and $5 per bag will go to our World Team account.

Thanks for your support and please spread the word.  God is working!  Here are some specific ways you can pray for us this week:

• Please pray that we don't get overwhelmed as we try to find some time and energy to pack for our move (locally).   
• Pray that we can reach 25% of the pledged monthly support needed by the end of this month.  Our outgoing (one-time) funds are steadily increasing, but we are having a harder time lining up our ongoing, monthly support.   
• Pray that we can fix our eyes on JESUS and not lose sight of our ultimate calling to know and follow Him!   

We also want to express our gratitude to the Women's Ministry and Pastor of Mullins Station Baptist church for allowing us to share at their meeting this week.  Also, thanks to Sherry Hall from the Mid-South Baptist Association for bringing us along.
